Semantic properties and categorization norms for the 260 Snodgrass and Vanderwart objects: A 45-year conceptual update to a classic set

Author(s): Antal C; de Almeida RG;

We present a new set of English property norms for 260 object concepts based on the standardized Snodgrass and Vanderwart (1980) picture set. For each object, 100 participants provided a basic-level label (dog), a superordinate category (animal), and three features (bark, tail, fur), yielding a dataset of 78,000 features. Our norms differ from other dat ...

Assessing Strengths and Limitations of Magnetoencephalography Source Imaging With Intracerebral EEG

Author(s): Afnan J; Fratello M; Bonini F; Medina Villalon S; Cai Z; Lina JM; Badier JM; Bartolomei F; Gotman J; Bénar CG; Grova C;

Due to the ill-posed nature of source imaging, EEG/MEG source localization remains challenging, particularly for localizing deep brain activity and resting-state signals with low signal-to-noise ratios. Functional connectivity estimated by EEG/MEG is further affected by source-leakage, a spatia ...

Young adult self-harm: The role of victimisation and polygenic risk in a population-based longitudinal study

Author(s): Marzecki F; Ouellet-Morin I; Zavos HMS; Côté S; Tremblay RE; Gouin JP; Orri M; Boivin M; Geoffroy MC;

Background: Victimisation has been associated with self-harm (with or without suicidal intent), but little is known about this association during young adulthood-a distinct developmental period. Further, not all individuals who experience victimisation will later engage in self-harm, suggesting ...

Human sex-specific hormone effects on cerebrovascular health in males and females

Author(s): Intzandt B; Potvin-Jutras Z; Gauthier CJ;

Circulating sex hormone levels decrease in aging, influencing cerebrovascular health. Estradiol has been shown to support female vascular and brain health, though its effects across the menopausal transition remain unknown. Similarly, the influence of testosterone and other hormones in females is not clear. In males, testosterone is associated with posi ...

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Biological Sex Differences in Sleep Spindles and Slow Wave Activity in Adults With and Without Insomnia

Author(s): Walsh NA; Phillips EM; Páez A; Cross NE; Dang-Vu TT; Perrault AA;

Mounting evidence shows sex-based differences in sleep experiences and outcomes, including the prevalence of insomnia disorder. However, the impact of biological sex on brain oscillations during sleep remains poorly understood, especially in the context of insomnia disorder. This is a notable gap, given that neurophysiological aspects of sleep are assoc ...

Ureolytic bacteria for MICP application to iron-rich slag materials for waste stabilization and carbon sequestration

Author(s): Wilcox SM; Mulligan CN; Neculita CM;

Microbial induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a novel soil and cement strengthening technique for civil and geotechnical engineering fields. Recently emerging is the use of MICP as a biological remediation strategy to immobilize contaminants, strengthen metalliferous waste, and sequester carbon dioxide from mining activities. MICP has a broad spec ...

Investigating Physical Exercise and Cognitive Training Effects on Cognition and Brain Health in Men and Women with Heart Failure: The ReCARDIO Trial

Author(s): Bherer L; Besnier F; Gagnon C; Vrinceanu T; Vincent T; Mohammadi H; Gauthier C; Duquesne C; Blanchette CA; Bérubé B; Said SN; Iglesies-Grau J; L' Allier P; Boulet J; Nigam A; Dionne V; Benhalima H; Dubé MP; Duchesne S; Belleville ...

Cognitive impairment can affect up to 50% of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and is associated with reduced treatment adherence, high mortality rates, and poor quality of life. Nonpharmacologic strategies, including cognitive intervention and physical exercise training, may help enhan ...

From Sparse Nanoparticles to Graded Interfaces: Beyond Classical Descriptions of LiF Growth on Organic Semiconductors

Author(s): Oliviera P; Maye F; Turak A;

Small-molecule π $\pi$ -conjugated semiconductors provide an ordered platform for probing interfacial mechanisms in organic optoelectronics, where device performance and stability are dominated by interface effects. Lithium fluoride, despite its widespread use as an interlayer, remains paradoxical: essential for high device efficiencies yet gover ...

Microsphere-Templated Conductive Syntactic Foams for Recyclable and Additively Manufactured Soft Electronics

Author(s): Petrossian G; Diouri Y; Xu B; Ebrahimi S; Pande A; Miquet-Westphal F; Xu H; Cicoira F;

Soft, conductive materials that simultaneously offer mechanical compliance, electrical conductivity, recyclability, and scalable manufacturing remain difficult to achieve. Here, we introduce recyclable, 3D-printable PEDOT:PSS syntactic foams based on polymer microspheres coated in situ, enabling precise control over porosity, mechanical properties, and ...

Reimagining the Biopsychosocial Model: Transdiagnostic Factors to Precision Psychiatry

Author(s): Nikolic M; Caswell CB; Prada NP; Iqbal M; Cox SML; Jaworska N; Castellanos-Ryan N; Vitaro F; Brendgen M; Parent S; Boivin M; Côté S; Tremblay RE; Séguin JR; Leyton M;

Background: We recently reported evidence that a biopsychosocial model predicts lifetime histories of commonly comorbid early-onset psychiatric disorders. This transdiagnostic model was produced when incorporating either positron emission tomography-measured midbrain dopamine autoreceptors or f ...

Development of a novel macroporous passive sampler with integrated solid phase extraction for cost-effective water contaminant monitoring

Author(s): Chen K; Shi S; Wen Y; Song M; Zhang X; Ma H; Tian X; Han X; Chen W; Chen Z; Sun J;

Passive samplers, for instance Chemcatcher, Microporous Polyethylene Tube passive samplers (MPTs) and Diffusive Gradients in Thin Films (DGT), are widely used for monitoring time-weighted average concentrations (CTWA) of contaminants in waters. This study presents ChemTRAP, a novel passive sampler using two macroporous filters (MFs) as both sorbent supp ...
