Objective: The objective of this study was to clarify the differences in electroencephalogram (EEG) activity patterns during the eye movements required to trace visible and occluded moving targets with millisecond temporal resolution.
Methods: To achieve this objective, we simultaneously measured EEG and eye-tracking during a task that required tracking moving targets that were partially occluded. These EEG and eye tracker parameters were compared with those of a nonoccluded task, a control task in which the moving target was fully visible.
Results: Differences in EEG activity patterns in the parietal eye field and posterior parietal lobe were observed during the occluded sections in the occluded task compared with the nonoccluded task. Under the same conditions, differences in EEG activity patterns in the middle temporal visual area, posterior parietal lobe, premotor, primary motor cortex, and temporal lobe were observed during visible sections in the occluded task compared with the nonoccluded task.
Conclusion: These results indicate that the presence of occlusion affects EEG activity patterns not only when the target is occluded but also immediately before occlusion.

Background: The current negative trend in the physical behavior and lifestyle of the population therefore requires adequate changes in the professional training of physiotherapists.
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the structure and differences in the weekly physical activity (PA) of Czech physiotherapy students, the use of wearables in physiotherapy professional training, and the attitude of physiotherapy students toward PA and the use of wearables in physiotherapy practice.
Methods: Between 2013 and 2022, 412 physiotherapy students participated in a PA-monitoring study using questonnaires International Physical Activity Questionnaire-long form, Motives for Physical Activity Measure-Revise, pedometers, Garmin Vívofit and Axivity AX3 accelerometers.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the leading chronic liver disease worldwide, with alarming prevalence reaching epidemic proportions.
Aims And Methods: The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive review of the latest blood proteomics studies on MASLD and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), with emphasis on fibrosis. Furthermore, our objective is to conduct an analysis of protein pathways and interactions by integrating proteomics data using functional enrichment analysis of the deregulated proteins.

Ras is identified as a human oncogene which is frequently mutated in human cancers. Among its three isoforms (K, N, and H), KRas is the most frequently mutated. Mutant Ras exhibits reduced GTPase activity, leading to the prolonged activation of its conformation.

Objective: Post-prandial glucose response (PPGR) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Meal carbohydrate content is an important predictor of PPGR, but dietary interventions to mitigate PPGR are not always successful. A personalized approach, considering behaviour and habitual pattern of glucose excursions assessed by continuous glucose monitor (CGM), may be more effective.

The remarkable catalytic activity, optical properties, and electrochemical behavior of nanomaterials based on noble metals (NM) are profoundly influenced by their physical characteristics, including particle size, morphology, and crystal structure. Effective regulation of these parameters necessitates a refined methodology. Lignin, a natural aromatic compound abundant in hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl, and sulfonic acid groups, has emerged as an eco-friendly surfactant, reducing agent, and dispersant, offering the potential to precisely control the particle size and morphology of NM-based nanomaterials.
