Biotuner: A python toolbox integrating music theory and signal processing for harmonic analysis of physiological and natural time series

Author(s): Bellemare-Pepin A; Jerbi K;

Background: The Biotuner Toolbox is an open-source Python toolbox for biosignals that integrates concepts from neuroscience, music theory, and signal processing. It introduces a harmonic perspective on physiological oscillations by applying musical constructs such as consonance, rhythm, and scale construction. Methods: The core biotuner_object processes ...

Personalized biomarkers of multiscale functional alterations in temporal lobe epilepsy

Author(s): Xie K; Sahlas E; Ngo A; Chen J; Arafat T; Royer J; Zhou Y; Rodríguez-Cruces R; Dascal A; Caldairou B; Fadaie F; Barnett A; Audrain S; Larivière S; Caciagli L; Pana R; Weil AG; Grova C; Frauscher B; Schrader DV; Zhang Z; Concha L; Bernasc ...

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common pharmacoresistant epilepsy in adults, yet few patients receive curative surgery due to diagnostic and prognostic uncertainty. In a multicenter cohort, we analyzed multimodal MRI and clinical data from 282 TLE patients, 298 healthy controls, and 45 d ...

Mechanistic insights of plant-microbe interactions for enhancing the growth and productivity of plants under salt stress conditions for agricultural sustainability

Author(s): Sharma B; Negi R; Jyothi SR; Gupta A; Jhamta S; Yadav N; Kaur N; Puri P; Thakur SS; Bagavathiappan S; Thakur N; Shreaz S; Madouh TA; Yadav AN;

According to estimates from United Nations environmental program, salinity affects about 20% of agricultural land and 50% of farmland worldwide. Plants react to salinity stress by undergoing distinctive physiochemical, morphological, and molecular adaptations. Nonetheless, a number of mitigating ...

Temporal and Sex-Related Differences in Knee Biomechanics Over the Course of the Varsity Athletic Season: Pre- and Postseason Knee Kinematics in Collegiate Varsity Athletes Using Kinect

Author(s): Joseph T; Babouras A; Zhao KY; Corban J; Martineau PA;

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears can be a source of significant morbidity, with the potential for career-altering implications for athletes who sustain them. Specific knee biomechanics during a drop vertical jump have been shown to be associated with an increased risk for ACL injury in collegiate varsity athletes. Presently, the evolutio ...

Phase-preserving nonreciprocal dynamics in coupled nonlinear oscillatorsa)

Author(s): Kogani A; Yousefzadeh B;

Nonreciprocity is most commonly associated with a large difference in the transmitted energy when the locations of the source and receiver are interchanged. This energy bias is accompanied by a difference in the transmitted phase. This work highlights the role of this phase bias in breaking reciprocity in the steady-state vibration transmission characteri ...

A corpus-assisted discourse study of parental concerns regarding multilingual child-rearing

Author(s): Quirk E; Brouillard M; Ahooja A; Ballinger S; Polka L; Byers-Heinlein K; Kircher R;

Many parents have concerns about raising their children with multiple languages. However, there is a paucity of previous research regarding parental concerns about multilingual child-rearing, particularly in multilingual societies. We address this gap with a corpus-assisted discourse study of parental concerns regarding multilingual child-rearing in Quebe ...

Human short-term memory learning based on dynamic glutamate levels and oscillatory activities: concurrent metabolic and electrophysiological studies using event-related functional-MRS and EEG modalities

Author(s): Mohammadi H; Zargaran SJ; Khajehpour H; Adibi I; Rahimiforoushani A; Karimi S; Serej ND; Alam NR;

Short-term memory (STM) temporarily stores sensory information, critical for synaptic plasticity, memory, and learning, and is regulated by the glutamate-gated NMDA receptor. While the frontal and parieto-occipital cortices have been implicated in STM, the electrochemical dynamics of the right he ...

Climate variability is an important driver of water treatability in a shallow reservoir

Author(s): Spence DS; Painter KJ; Nazemi A; Venkiteswaran JJ; Baulch HM;

Drinking water treatability is defined by multiple parameters that are strongly impacted by climatic and anthropogenic drivers. Working in a shallow reservoir in the Canadian Prairies, generalized additive models (GAMs) were applied to a 33-year dataset to identify drivers of interannual variability in multiple indicators of drinking water treatability. I ...

Auditory and vibrotactile interactions in perception of timbre acoustic features

Author(s): Chauvette L; Sophie Grenier A; Albouy P; Coffey E; Zatorre R; Sharp A;

Recently, there has been increasing interest in developing auditory-to-vibrotactile sensory devices. However, the potential of these technologies is constrained by our limited understanding of which features of complex sounds can be perceived through vibrations. The present study aimed to investigate the vibrotactile perception of acoustic features relate ...

Parental Language Mixing in Montreal: Rates, Predictors, and Relation to Infants Vocabulary Size

Author(s): Paquette A; Byers-Heinlein K;

Language mixing is a common feature of bilingual communication, yet its predictors and effects on children's vocabulary development remain debated. Most research has been conducted in contexts with clear societal and heritage languages, leaving open questions about language mixing in environments with two societal languages. Montreal provides a unique ...
