Aims: Sleep timing, influenced by chronotype, behavior, and circadian rhythms, is critical for human health. While previous research has linked chronotype to various health outcomes, the impact of aligning sleep timing with chronotype on physical health remains underexplored. The objective of this study is to investigate the association between chronotype, actual sleep timing, and their alignment with a spectrum of physical health outcomes.

While pictures share global similarities with the real-world objects they depict, the latter have unique characteristics going beyond 2D representations. Due to its three-dimensional presentation mode, Virtual Reality (VR) is increasingly used to further approach real-world visual processing, yet it remains unresolved to what extent VR yields process comparable to real-world processes. Consequently, our study examined visuospatial processing by a triangular comparison of 2D objects, virtual 3D objects and real 3D objects.

Object permanence allows infants to interact successfully with objects in the environment. What happens in the human infant brain when objects move in and out of sight? This study used high-density electroencephalography (hdEEG) to record induced oscillatory brain activities in 29 locomotor infants before, during, and after occlusion of a moving object traveling at different speeds. Temporal spectral evolution (TSE) showed that before and after the occlusion event, event-related synchronized (ERS) brain activity was observed, whereas event-related desynchronized (ERD) activity was detected when the car was hidden behind the occluder.

To investigate the characteristics of gastric electric rhythm in patients with obesity. Obese patients who were scheduled to undergo weight reduction surgery in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2018 to February 2024 were prospectively included. According to body mass index (BMI), the patients were divided into mild-to-moderate obesity group (28 kg/m≤BMI<40 kg/m) and severe obesity group (BMI≥40 kg/m).

Gamma oscillations in brain activity (30-150 Hz) have been studied for over 80 years. Although in the past three decades significant progress has been made to try to understand their functional role, a definitive answer regarding their causal implication in perception, cognition, and behavior still lies ahead of us. Here, we first review the basic neural mechanisms that give rise to gamma oscillations and then focus on two main pillars of exploration.
