Article Abstract
Neuroimaging studies have shown age-related alterations in brain structure and function supporting semantic knowledge, although the significance of these is not fully understood. Herein, we report novel temporal, spectral, and spatial information on age-related changes from the largest dynamic functional mapping study of semantic processing. Participants (N = 130, age range 21-87 years, M = 51.05, SD = 14.73, 68 females) performed a semantic judgement task during magnetoencephalography (MEG), and significant task-related oscillatory responses were projected into anatomical space using a beamformer. Voxel-wise linear mixed-effects models were performed to assess semantic-related neural oscillations, irrespective of and influenced by age. Mediation analyses were performed to assess if local oscillations mediated the relationship between age and reaction time. Whole-brain analyses revealed stronger left-lateralized alpha/beta oscillations in frontotemporal cortices during semantic trials and stronger right-lateralized alpha/beta responses in temporoparietal regions during length trials (all ps <.001). Older adults showed stronger left temporoparietal alpha and left frontal beta during semantic processing and stronger alpha in the right temporal cortex during the length condition (all ps <.001). Alpha oscillations further mediated the relationship between age and reaction time in a hemisphere- and condition-specific manner, whereby right temporal activity mediated the age-behavior relationship in the length but not semantic condition (Z = 2.01, p =.022), while left temporoparietal activity significantly mediated this relationship in the semantic but not length condition (Z = - 2.41, p =.008). Altogether, our findings demonstrate accentuated oscillations in aging which are hemisphere- and condition-specific and support compensatory processing to aid in maintaining adequate behavioral performance, lending clear support to leading neuroscientific models of aging.

Modelling cardiovascular disease is at the forefront of efforts to use computational tools to assist in the analysis and forecasting of an individual's state of health. To build trust in such tools, it is crucial to understand how different approaches perform when applied to a nominally identical scenario, both singularly and across a population. To examine such differences, we have studied the flow in aneurysms located on the internal carotid artery and middle cerebral artery using the commercial solver Ansys CFX and the open-source code HemeLB.

Accurate determination of the parameters of each high purity germanium, HPGe detectors ensure the precision of quantitative results obtained from spectrum analysis. This study presents a comprehensive performance evaluation and long-term quality control assessment of a high-purity germanium (HPGe) gamma spectrometry system that has been operational for over 15 years. Key spectrometric measures were recorded, including energy resolution, peak shape ratios, asymmetry, peak-to-Compton ratio, relative efficiency, electronic noise, minimum detectable activity (MDA), and repeatability and reproducibility of the system.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality; patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at particularly high risk, highlighting the need for reliable biomarkers for early detection and risk stratification. We investigated whether combining the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) improves CHD detection in T2DM. In this retrospective cohort of 943 T2DM patients undergoing coronary angiography, associations of SHR and SIRI with CHD were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression and restricted cubic splines; robustness was examined with subgroup and sensitivity analyses.

The development of anode materials for lithium-ion batteries must meet the demands for high safety, high energy density, and fast-charging performance. TiNbO is notable for its high theoretical specific capacity, low structural strain, and exceptional fast-charging capability, attributed to its Wadsley-Roth crystal structure. However, its inherently poor conductivity has hindered its practical application.

Background: Despite the Coronary Artery Reporting and Data System (CAD-RADS) providing a standardized approach, radiologists continue to favor free-text reports. This preference creates significant challenges for data extraction and analysis in longitudinal studies, potentially limiting large-scale research and quality assessment initiatives.
Objective: To evaluate the ability of the generative pre-trained transformer (GPT)-4o model to convert real-world coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) free-text reports into structured data and automatically identify CAD-RADS categories and P categories.
