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. 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 ...

3. 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 ...

4. Co-transport of citrate-modified biochar nanoparticles and released plant-available silicon in saturated porous media: Effect of LMWOAs and solution chemistry 

   Liu, Yang; Jiang, Xiaoqian; Zhang, Lixun; et al. (2024)

   Chemosphere

   Citrate-modified biochar nanoparticles (CBCNPs) represent a promising amendment with plant-available silicon (PASi) releasing capacity. However, the co-transport behavior with released PASi remain poorly understood. This study investigated their co-transport in saturated porous media under various solution chemistry and low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs). Experimental and two-site kinetic model results revealed that higher ionic ...

5. Progressive cervical cord atrophy parallels cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease 

   Emmenegger, Tim M.; Seiler, Raoul; Unschuld, Paul G.; et al. (2024)

   Scientific Reports

   Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by progressive episodic memory dysfunction. A prominent hallmark of AD is gradual brain atrophy. Despite extensive research on brain pathology, the understanding of spinal cord pathology in AD and its association with cognitive decline remains understudied. We analyzed serial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans from the ADNI data repository to assess whether progressive cord atrophy is associated ...
