EEG and a hand-eye functional asymmetry (FAS) profile have been compared in children with general speech retardation (GSR, 45 cases) and in normal children (45 cases) aged 5-7 years. The least EEG deviations have been noted in healthy full right-handed cases. Some delay in EEG maturation as well as existence of pathologic activity foci mostly in associative cortical brain areas have been noted in healthy non-right-handed and in GSR children. The most pronounced EEG disturbances have been observed in GSR children, 40% of whom were ambidextrous, left-handed and cross-lateralized children. The percentage of non-right-handed cases in the healthy group was less and decreased up to the age of 7 years. Prenatal, perinatal and 1st year postnatal pathology have been revealed in 86.6% of children in GSR group (in comparison to 11.1% in normal control group). Such pathology is suggested to be the reason of dysontogenesis and probably to be involved in brain electrical activity maturation, in FAS profile and in speech development.

: The aim of this study is to determine whether different playing positions in football influence muscle asymmetry, which is a common cause of injuries in football. This study aimed to determine the difference in the functional and lateral asymmetry of the knee joint muscles measured using tensiomyography (TMG) between football players of different playing positions. : This study included 52 professional football players (25.

Chiral metal organic cage compounds with excellent circularly polarized luminescent performance have broad application prospects in many fields. Herein, two lanthanide complexes with luminescent properties in the form of racemic hexagonal octahedral cages were synthesized using a tri (β-diketone) ligand. Eu6(C21H6F15O6)8(H2O)6 exhibited red light emission with high quantum yields of 61%.

Background: Pulse pressure variation (PPV) is limited in low tidal volume mechanical ventilation. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate whether passive leg raising (PLR)-induced changes in PPV can reliably predict preload/fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients with low tidal volume in the intensive care unit.
Methods: PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases were screened for diagnostic research relevant to the predictability of PPV change after PLR in low-tidal volume mechanically ventilated patients.

Background: We currently lack in the dementia field accurate, noninvasive, quick, and affordable screening tools for brain dysfunctions associated with early subtle risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Our Kentucky aging cohort demonstrates that asymptomatic older individuals with MCI-like frontal memory-related brainwave patterns convert to MCI within a short 5-year period, as opposed to individuals with NC-like patterns (1) that remain normal 10 years later (2). Astrocyte reactivity influences amyloid-β effects on tau pathology in preclinical Alzheimer's disease (3).
