Interactions of BDNF Val66Met Polymorphism and Menstrual Pain on Brain Complexity
The irregularity and uncertainty of neurophysiologic signals across different time scales can be regarded as neural complexity, which is related to the adaptability of the nervous system and the information processing between neurons. We recently reported general loss of brain complexity, as…

Trait representation of embodied cognition in dancers pivoting on the extended mirror neuron system: a resting-state fMRI study
IntroductionDance is an art form that integrates the body and mind through movement. Dancers develop exceptional physical and mental abilities that involve various neurocognitive processes linked to embodied cognition. We propose that dancers’ primary trait representation is movement-actuated and…

Asymmetric Engagement of Amygdala and Its Gamma Connectivity in Early Emotional Face Processing
The amygdala has been regarded as a key substrate for emotion processing. However, the engagement of the left and right amygdala during the early perceptual processing of different emotional faces remains unclear. We investigated the temporal profiles of oscillatory gamma activity in the amygdala…

Hydrodynamic Performance of an Array of Wave Energy Converters Integrated with a Pontoon-Type Breakwater
The cost of wave energy converters (WECs) can be reduced significantly by integrating WECs into other marine facilities, especially in sea areas with a mild wave climate. To reduce the cost and increase the efficiency, a hybrid WEC system, comprising a linear array (medium farm) of oscillating…

OPRM1 A118G polymorphism modulating motor pathway for pain adaptability in women with primary dysmenorrhea
IntroductionPrimary dysmenorrhea (PDM) is a common condition among women of reproductive age, characterized by menstrual pain in the absence of any organic causes. Previous research has established a link between the A118G polymorphism in the mu-opioid receptor (OPRM1) gene and pain experience in…

Adaptive neuroplasticity in the default mode network contributing to absence of central sensitization in primary dysmenorrhea
IntroductionPrimary dysmenorrhea (PDM), the most prevalent gynecological problem among women of reproductive age, presents as a regular pattern of cyclic menstrual pain. The presence or absence of central sensitization (i.e., pain hypersensitivity) in cases of PDM is a contentious issue. Among…

Feedback matters: EEG correlates of empathy involved in the naturalistic communication of emotions
Empathy involves the processing of complex information related to dynamic interactions between the empathizer and target. One neural signature of empathy is the suppression of electroencephalographic mu rhythm (8–13 Hz) over the sensorimotor region. It is important to consider that few researchers…

Respiratory sinus arrhythmia biofeedback therapy may increase heart rate variability activity and decrease reactivity in male patients with major depressive disorder: A pilot study
Objectives: Evidence suggests that depression is associated with a decreased trend of heart rate variability (HRV), which has been considered to be associated with unfavorable physical outcomes, and not resolved using various antidepressant medication treatments despite resolution of depression…
