Background: Nowadays, there are a variety of viewpoints on problem-based learning (PBL) and mind mapping teaching outcomes in nursing education, but there are not many thorough assessments that are pertinent.

Objectives: We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of the PBL method combined with mind mapping on nursing instruction.

Material And Methods: A systematic literature search up to July 2022 was performed, and 1765 related studies were evaluated. The chosen studies comprised 1473 nursing teaching participants as the trial's baseline, with 770 of them using the PBL model with mind mapping and 703 enrolled as controls. Odds ratio (OR) and mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated to assess the effect of the PBL method combined with mind mapping on nursing instructions using dichotomous and continuous methods with a random or fixed effect model. The study protocol was registered in PROSPERO (registration No. CRD 42022432130).

Results: The PBL model with mind mapping reached a significantly higher results of nursing knowledge test (MD: 7.29, 95% CI: 6.88-7.71, p < 0.001) and pediatric practice test (MD: 9.89, 95% CI: 9.04-10.74, p < 0.001), as well as higher students' ability of independent learning (OR: 3.49, 95% CI: 2.11-5.76, p < 0.001) compared to the controls in nursing teaching.

Conclusion: The PBL model with mind mapping resulted in a significantly higher results of nursing knowledge test, pediatric practice test and students' ability of independent learning compared to controls in nursing teaching.

Number and space are inherently related. Previous research has provided evidence that numbers are aligned to a so-called "mental number line", which is malleable and affected by cultural factors mostly linked to literacy-related habits. However, preverbal humans and non-human animals also map numerosities into space, in a consistent left-to-right direction.

Movie-watching is a central aspect of our lives and an important paradigm for understanding the brain mechanisms behind cognition as it occurs in daily life. Contemporary views of ongoing thought argue that the ability to make sense of events in the 'here and now' depend on the neural processing of incoming sensory information by auditory and visual cortex, which are kept in check by systems in association cortex. However, we currently lack an understanding of how patterns of ongoing thoughts map onto the different brain systems when we watch a film, partly because methods of sampling experience disrupt the dynamics of brain activity and the experience of movie-watching.

Evaluation of mechanisms of action of EEG neurofeedback (EEG-nf) using simultaneous fMRI is highly desirable to ensure its effective application for clinical rehabilitation and therapy. Counterbalancing training runs with active neurofeedback and sham (neuro)feedback for each participant is a promising approach to demonstrate specificity of training effects to the active neurofeedback. We report the first study in which EEG-nf procedure is both evaluated using simultaneous fMRI and controlled via the counterbalanced active-sham study design.

Within the reductionist framework, researchers in the special sciences formulate key terms and concepts and try to explain them with lower-level science terms and concepts. For example, behavioural vision scientists describe contrast perception with a psychometric function, in which the perceived brightness increases logarithmically with the physical contrast of a light patch (the Weber-Fechner law). Visual neuroscientists describe the output of neural circuits with neurometric functions.

In glioma surgery, maximizing the extent of resection while preserving cognitive functions requires an understanding of the unique architecture of the white matter (WM) pathways of the single patient and of their spatial relationship with the tumor. Tractography enables the reconstruction of WM pathways, and bundle segmentation allows the identification of critical connections for functional preservation. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a streamline-based approach for bundle segmentation on a clinical dataset as compared to the traditional ROI-based approach.
