1. Estimating Perceived Mental Workload From Eye-Tracking Data Based on Benign Anisocoria 

   Chakraborty, Suvodip; Kiefer, Peter; Raubal, Martin (2024)

   IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems

   From the initial phases of human–computer interaction, where the computer was unaware of the users' mental states, we are now progressing toward cognition-aware user interfaces. One crucial cognitive state considered by research on cognition-aware user interfaces is the cognitive load. Eye-tracking has been suggested as one particularly unobtrusive method for estimating cognitive load. Although the accuracy of cognitive load detection has ...

2. Cataloging natural sialic acids and other nonulosonic acids (NulOs), and their representation using the Symbol Nomenclature for Glycans 

   Lewis A.L.; Toukach P.; Bolton E.; et al. (2023)

   Glycobiology

   Nonulosonic acids or non-2-ulosonic acids (NulOs) are an ancient family of 2-ketoaldonic acids (α-ketoaldonic acids) with a 9-carbon backbone. In nature, these monosaccharides occur either in a 3-deoxy form (referred to as “sialic acids”) or in a 3,9-dideoxy “sialic-acid-like” form. The former sialic acids are most common in the deuterostome lineage, including vertebrates, and mimicked by some of their pathogens. The latter sialic-acid-like ...

3. Probing inhomogeneous cuprate superconductivity by terahertz Josephson echo spectroscopy 

   Liu, A.; Pavicevic, D.; Michael, M. H.; et al. (2024)

   Nature Physics

   Inhomogeneities crucially influence the properties of quantum materials, yet methods that can measure them remain limited and can access only a fraction of relevant observables. For example, local probes such as scanning tunnelling microscopy have documented that the electronic properties of cuprate superconductors are inhomogeneous over nanometre length scales. However, complementary techniques that can resolve higher-order correlations ...

4. Innovative air mattress for the prevention of pressure ulcers in neonates 

   Jucker T.A.; Annaheim S.; Morlec E.; et al. (2024)

   Journal of wound care

   OBJECTIVE: Pressure ulcers (PUs) severely impact health outcomes in neonatal intensive care, with up to 28% prevalence and doubled mortality rates. Due to their only partially developed stratum corneum, neonates are highly susceptible to PUs because of a lack of adequate support surfaces. The occipital region of the head and hip are the main risk areas due to immobility and newborn body proportions. The main goal of the study was to ...

5. A Bajocian event of global coral reef growth: Record from northern Switzerland 

   Ruchat, Arnaud; Lathuilière, Bernard; Wohlwend, Stephan; et al. (2024)

   Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology

   Following the extinction event at the Triassic – Jurassic boundary and during the Pliensbachian – Toarcian events, coral reef builders were severely affected, and the number of reef domains during the early Middle Jurassic was at an all-time low. However, new and updated data seem to show that corals were more widespread than previously thought, particularly during the Bajocian (170–168 Ma), but biostratigraphic markers are lacking to ...
