Reactivating and reorganizing activity-silent working memory: two distinct mechanisms underlying pinging the brain by Yang, C, He, X, Cai, Y

“…Recent studies have proposed that visual information in working memory (WM) can be maintained in an activity-silent state and reactivated by task-irrelevant high-contrast visual impulses (“ping”). Although pinging the brain has become a popular tool for exploring activity-silent WM, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. …”

CSS-like constructions of asymmetric quantum codes by Ezerman, Martianus Frederic, Jitman, Somphong, Ling, San, Pasechnik, Dmitrii V.

“…After establishing some theoretical foundations, best-performing CSS-like AQCs are constructed. Combining some constructions of nested pairs of classical codes and linear programming, many optimal and good pure q-ary CSS-like codes for q ∈ {2,3,4,5,7,8,9} up to reasonable lengths are found. …”

Self-reported pain and osteoarthritis of the hip and spine in retired elite rowers by Baynham-Williams, M

“…No significant differences were found between rowing training duration or hatchet blade use in retired rowers with poor outcomes at the hip, spine or combined hip-spine. However, it is likely that this study was underpowered to detect statistical differences. …”

Biomechanical investigation of traction forces on the cervical (neck/head region) spine by Ang, Lian Ann

“…It is believed that the relief of pain by traction is due to straightening of the cervical spine and a widening of the intervertebral articulating space to relieve compressive or irritative forces on the nervous structures…”
