1. Reliability of Contralateral Suppression in Evoked Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions
Abstract Introduction Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) and their suppression may be considered useful in monitoring cochlear function and the efferent auditory pathway inhibitory effect. Nonetheless, the establishment of reliable parameters of response variations is of great importance. Objectives To verify the replicability of test and ret

2. Immunosenescence: participation of T lymphocytes and myeloid-derived suppressor cells in aging-related immune response changes
RESUMO O envelhecimento saudável está relacionado, pelo menos em parte, com a função adequada do sistema imunológico. Isso porque já foi relatado que, com o envelhecimento, algumas mudanças desse sistema são observadas, como a diminuição da percentagem e do repertório de células T pela involução tímica, acúmulo de células T de memória por i

3. Wideband acoustic absorbance in children with Down syndrome,
Resumo Introdução: A timpanometria é a ferramenta mais usada para avaliar o status da orelha média, comumente avaliada por meio de uma única frequência com o tom de 226 Hz. No entanto, o uso da medida de imitância acústica com estímulo de banda larga é uma avaliação de alta resolução promissora, especialmente em pacientes conhecidos por freque

4. Sensory Memory Workshop: An account of experience
Resumo Introdução: Em todo o mundo, o envelhecimento populacional pode acarretar o surgimento de doenças crônicas degenerativas, dentre elas, o Transtorno Neurocognitivo Maior (TNM), conhecido como demência. Esta é uma síndrome caracterizada por prejuízos cognitivos, perceptivos e sensoriais que afeta diretamente o desempenho ocupacional dos indiví

5. ENHANCE KNOWLEDGE COMMUNICATION AND LEARNING: A SURPRISE PARADOX
Abstract Human-computer interface is a pivotal factor that can promote or deter the effectiveness of Web-based knowledge communication. There is abundant research that strain to improve interfaces by considering user needs through usability studies; however, few researches consider the incorporation of automatic brain mechanisms in order to improve knowledge

6. From anatomy to function: the role of the somatosensory cortex in emotional regulation
Since the pioneering work of Penfield and his colleagues in the 1930s, the somatosensory cortex, which is located on the postcentral gyrus, has been known for its central role in processing sensory information from various parts of the body. More recently, a converging body of literature has shown that the somatosensory cortex also plays an important role

7. Fasting: a major limitation for resistance exercise training effects in rodents
Protocols that mimic resistance exercise training (RET) in rodents present several limitations, one of them being the electrical stimulus, which is beyond the physiological context observed in humans. Recently, our group developed a conditioning system device that does not use electric shock to stimulate rats, but includes fasting periods before each RET ses

8. Stimulus electrodiagnosis and motor and functional evaluations during ulnar nerve recovery
BACKGROUND: Distal ulnar nerve injury leads to impairment of hand function due to motor and sensorial changes. Stimulus electrodiagnosis (SE) is a method of assessing and monitoring the development of this type of injury. OBJECTIVE: To identify the most sensitive electrodiagnostic parameters to evaluate ulnar nerve recovery and to correlate these paramet

9. Anionic Aliphatic Polyesteramide Copolymers: Evaluation of Dielectric Properties
This study looks at the effects on the dielectric behavior as result of the incorporation of ester sequences along the nylon 6 chains. The aliphatic polyesteramide copolymers and nylon 6 homopolymer were synthesized via anionic ring-opening copolymerization using the rotational molding technique by varying the ratio of the ε-caprolactam (CLA) and ε-caprola

10. Effect of disparity on the perception of motion-defined contours
We present three experiments that explored the effect of binocular disparity on the perception of contours defined by motion in a Spatiotemporal Boundary Formation. Depending on the disparity, the stimulus is perceived as an object that moves behind a holed surface (occluded configuration) or as a luminous transparency that moves over a surface that contains

11. Exclusion performance in visual simple discrimination in dogs (Canis familiaris)
Choices based on exclusion have been investigated in different species because of its emergent nature, leading to evidence of rudimentary symbolic behavior in non-verbal organisms. Simple discrimination procedures provide a simple method to investigate exclusion performance, in which each trial consists of the simultaneous presentation of two stimuli, one wi

12. Differential effects of aging on spatial contrast sensitivity to linear and polar sine-wave gratings
Changes in visual function beyond high-contrast acuity are known to take place during normal aging. We determined whether sensitivity to linear sine-wave gratings and to an elementary stimulus preferentially processed in extrastriate areas could be distinctively affected by aging. We measured spatial contrast sensitivity twice for concentric polar (Bessel) a
