This study examines the relationship between cognitive and affective flexibility, two critical aspects of adaptability. Cognitive flexibility involves switching between activities as rules change, assessed through task-switching or neuropsychological tests and questionnaires. Affective flexibility, meanwhile, refers to shifting between emotional and non-emotional tasks or states.

The monitoring of peripheral circulation, as indicated by the capillary refill time, is a sensitive and accurate method of assessing the microcirculatory status of the body. It is a widely used tool for the evaluation of critically ill patients, the guidance of therapeutic interventions, and the assessment of prognosis. In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on microcirculation monitoring which has led to an increased focus on capillary refill time.

Security is one of the increasingly significant issues given advancements in technology that harness data from multiple devices such as the internet of medical devices. While protecting data from unauthorized user access, several techniques are used including fingerprints, passwords, and others. One of the techniques that has attracted much attention is the use of human features, which has proven to be most effective because of the difficulties in impersonating human-related features.

Arrhythmias are among the diseases with high mortality rates worldwide, causing millions of deaths each year. This underscores the importance of real-time electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring for timely heart disease diagnosis and intervention. Deep learning models, trained on ECG signals across twelve or more leads, are the predominant approach for automated arrhythmia detection in the AI-assisted medical field.

Background: This study aimed to compare the effects of a carbohydrate (CHO) hydrogel with (ALG-CP) or without (ALG-C) branched-chain amino acids, and a CHO-only non-hydrogel (CON), on cycling performance. The hydrogels, encapsulated in an alginate matrix, are designed to control CHO release, potentially optimising absorption, increasing substrate utilisation, and reducing gastrointestinal distress as well as carious lesions.
Methods: In a randomised, double-blinded, crossover trial, 10 trained male cyclists/triathletes completed three experimental days separated by ~6 days.
