Cognitive load (CL) is one of the leading factors moderating states and performance among drivers. Heavily increased CL may contribute to the development of mental stress. Averaged heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) indices are shown to reflect CL levels in different tasks.

Objective: To assess the available evidence of non-invasive or minimally invasive neuromodulation therapies in improving urodynamic outcomes, voiding diaries, and quality of life in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) after spinal cord injury (SCI).
Data Sources: A comprehensive search of 10 databases from inception until August 30, 2023 was conducted.
Study Selection: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effects of conventional treatment (CT) and CT combined with sham stimulation (SS), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), sacral nerve magnetic stimulation (SNMS), TMS+SNMS, sacral pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (SPEMFT), sacral transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (STENS), sacral dermatomal transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (SDTENS), bladder & sacral transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (B&STENS), transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS), transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS), pelvic floor electrical stimulation (PFES), or pelvic floor biofeedback therapy (PFBFBT) on postvoid residual volume (PVR), maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), number of voids per 24 h (V24), mean urine volume per micturition, (MUV), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), maximum detrusor pressure (MDP), maximum voiding volume (MVV), number of leakages per 24 h (L24), lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) score, and spinal cord injury-quality of life (SCI-QoL)score in patients with NLUTD after SCI were included.

Marinating is a crucial stage in meat processing. However, traditional marinating takes a long time and is prone to nutrient loss. Pulsed electric field (PEF) technology, an innovative non-thermal processing method, has been shown to improve the efficiency of meat marinating.

X-ray dark-field imaging highlights sample structures through contrast generated by sub-resolution features within the inspected volume. Quantifying dark-field signals generally involves multiple exposures for phase retrieval, separating contributions from scattering, refraction, and attenuation. Here, we introduce an approach for non-interferometric X-ray dark-field imaging that presents a single-parameter representation of the sample.

Spin-lattice relaxation constitutes a key challenge for the development of quantum technologies, as it destroys superpositions in molecular quantum bits (qubits) and magnetic memory in single molecule magnets (SMMs). Gaining mechanistic insight into the spin relaxation process has proven challenging owing to a lack of spectroscopic observables and contradictions among theoretical models. Here, we use pulse electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) to profile changes in spin relaxation rates ( ) as a function of both temperature and magnetic field orientation, forming a two-dimensional data matrix.
