In this paper, a new surface electromyography (sEMG) signal decomposition method based on spatial location is proposed for the high-density sEMG signals in dynamic muscle contraction. Firstly, according to the waveform correlation of each muscle motor units (MU) in each channel, the firing times are extracted, and then the firing times are classified by the spatial location of MU. The MU firing trains are finally obtained. The simulation results show that the accuracy rate of a single MU firing train after classification is more than 91.67%. For real sEMG signals, the accuracy rate to find a same MU by the "two source" method is over (88.3 ± 2.1)%. This paper provides a new idea for dynamic sEMG signal decomposition.

Background: Cortical excitability is elevated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Transcranial magnetic stimulation-evoked responses on electromyography (EMG) and electroencephalography (EEG) have captured this increased excitability in motor brain regions. However, it is not yet known if increased excitability is also present in the parietal lobe or the extent to which excitability is related to cognition.

Background: BACE inhibitors, while effective in lowering amyloid-beta production, have been associated with mild cognitive worsening in clinical trials. Additional treatment-related adverse events reported in multiple clinical trials were sleep disturbances and insomnia. The purpose of this study is to determine if sleep disturbances occur in mice receiving BACE inhibitor, if sleep disturbances correlate with cognitive impairment, and the mechanism by which this may occur.

Background: When designing cutting-edge technology, particularly humanoid social robots, an essential consideration is understanding how individuals naturally engage in social interactions, shaping their relationships with technology and media.
Method: In pursuit of insights into the application of natural human behavior, specifically reciprocation, in human-robot interaction, an experiment involving 72 participants, involving facial electromyography, focusing on zygomatic and corrugator muscles, served as a tool to gauge users' emotional valence during interactions. The study assessed users' willingness to reciprocate a favor and measured compliance by tracking the number of raffle tickets purchased by users at the robot's request.

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) includes conditions with autoimmune genesis, which are manifested by attacks of optic neuritis (ON) and transverse myelitis (TM), and also express aquaporin 4 (NMO-IgG) or myelin oligo-endocytic glycoprotein (MOGAb) antibodies. In rare cases, the disease may also have a clinical presentation with only TM, without ON or with ON, without TM. These conditions are also included in the spectrum.
