It is unclear whether implicit memory (priming) is affected by aging. Some studies have reported no difference between young and older adults, while others have uncovered reliable reductions. An important factor that may explain these discrepancies is the manner of encoding. Processing requirements (perceptual/conceptual) have varied considerably between studies, yet processing abilities are not equally affected by aging. This study examined whether processing during encoding moderates age effects on priming. Young and older participants studied object-word pairs and made natural/manufactured (conceptual) and left/right rotation (perceptual) judgements in relation to the word or object. Objects served as targets on a subsequent continuous identification with recognition task to assess priming and recognition. Priming and recognition were greater in young than older adults for attended items, with a larger effect size in the conceptual than the perceptual condition. Findings suggest that age differences in priming may be a function of processing at encoding.

Clinical treatment options for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) are currently limited to chemotherapy because of a lack of effective therapeutic targets. Recent evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) encode bioactive peptides or proteins, thereby playing noncanonical yet significant roles in regulating cellular processes. However, the potential of lncRNA-translated products in cancer progression remains largely unknown.

Speech processing involves a complex interplay between sensory and motor systems in the brain, essential for early language development. Recent studies have extended this sensory-motor interaction to visual word processing, emphasizing the connection between reading and handwriting during literacy acquisition. Here we show how language-motor areas encode motoric and sensory features of language stimuli during auditory and visual perception, using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) combined with representational similarity analysis.

Soccer is a sport that requires athletes to be constantly aware of rapidly changing and unpredictable environments and to react adaptively. Previous studies have found that soccer players typically exhibit a vigilance advantage, but the underlying cognitive and neural basis for this is unclear. In this study, 27 soccer players, 17 age-matched artistic gymnasts, and 57 college students were recruited to participate in a psychomotor vigilance task.

Protein succinylation, a post-translational modification wherein a succinyl group (-CO-CHâ‚‚-CHâ‚‚-CO-) attaches to lysine residues, plays a critical regulatory role in cellular processes. Dysregulated succinylation has been implicated in the onset and progression of various diseases, including liver, cardiac, pulmonary, and neurological disorders. However, identifying succinylation sites through experimental methods is often labor-intensive, costly, and technically challenging.

Accurately predicting intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) prognosis is a critical and indispensable step in the clinical management of patients post-ICH. Recently, integrating artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning, has significantly enhanced prediction accuracy and alleviated neurosurgeons from the burden of manual prognosis assessment. However, uni-modal methods have shown suboptimal performance due to the intricate pathophysiology of the ICH.
