Cardiomyopathies pose a significant risk of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) recognized as the leading cause of pediatric heart transplantation. Understanding the unique presentation of DCM in the pediatric population remains challenging due to difficulties in classification and the variability in disease progression. Recent advancements in genetic analysis, advanced imaging, and electrophysiological assessments have played a crucial role in refining risk stratification, enabling more personalized treatment strategies.

The growing demand for personalized and real-time health assessment has driven rapid advancements in wearable health monitoring technologies. A critical shift is underway from reactive, treatment-centered care toward proactive, preventive healthcare models, motivating efforts to observe internal physiological states more accurately from outside the body. This review presents wearable monitoring technologies for evaluating internal organ function, focusing on two principal approaches: indirect sensing-based methods and direct imaging-based methods.

Objective And Rationale: Cognitive control deficits are considered as central features of cognitive impairments in depression. The dual mechanisms of control (DMC)-proactive and reactive control-can further elucidate the nature of these deficits. However, evidence regarding proactive control in mild depression remains uncertain.

Visual working memory (WM) capacity has been claimed to be larger for meaningful objects than for simple features, possibly because richer semantic representations enhance the distinctiveness of stored items. However, prior demonstrations typically compared trial-unique meaningful objects with a small set of repeated simple features. This design confounds meaningfulness with proactive interference (PI), such that PI is minimal for trial-unique objects but substantial for repeated features.

The globus pallidus internus (GPi), a critical output structure of the basal ganglia, plays a central role in motor control by facilitating or inhibiting cortical commands through its connections with the thalamus. This study investigates the involvement of the GPi and thalamus in inhibitory processes during a Go/No-Go task in six patients undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS) for dystonia or Tourette syndrome. Local field potentials (LFPs) were recorded from externalized DBS electrodes prior to pulse generator implantation.
