Objective Neurophysiological Measures of Cognitive Performance in Elite Ice Hockey Players by Kirby ED, Jones K, Campbell N, Fickling SD, D'Arcy RCN

“…While brain vital signs were collected to help manage concussion, the current investigation focused on a retrospective performance analysis of cognitive processing differences.Results: The results revealed three interesting findings: 1) Player position differences were detectable in sensory N100 latency, with significantly faster responses for forwards compared to defense; 2) Goalies showed significantly higher attention P300 amplitude compared to all other positions; and 3) Cognitive N400 processing differences were detectable only during competitive combine testing, showing 60ms latency differences between forwards and defense on average.Discussion: The current findings suggest that neurophysiological responses, which are also sensitive to concussion, may be used to identify sensory, attentional, and cognitive processing differences to help optimize peak performance.Keywords: electroencephalography, event-related potentials, brain vital signs, performance optimization, ice hockey…”

Extrinsic mortality and senescence: a guide for the perplexed by de Vries, Charlotte, Galipaud, Matthias, Kokko, Hanna

“…Here we provide heuristics as well as simple models that outline when the Williams prediction holds, why there is a ‘null model’ where extrinsic mortality does not change the evolution of senescence at all, and why it is also possible to expect the opposite of William’s prediction, where increased extrinsic mortality favours slower senescence. …”

Water Quality Evaluation of the Middle and Lower Reaches of Hanjiang River Based on Comprehensive Water Quality Identification Index by MA Jingjiu, YU Ting, CHEN Yanfei, YAO Huaming, LI Yang

“…Moreover,NH₃-N influences the water quality of Yujiahu section in the middle reaches greatly, and TP is the limiting factor for the comprehensive water quality of Luohanzha and Huangzhuang sections in the lower reaches.In terms of space, the water quality of Shenwan in the middle and lower reaches of Hanjiang River is the best,and that of Shilou is the worst.In terms of time,the overall water quality of the middle and lower reaches of Hanjiang River improved constantly from 2001 to 2014.The results can serve as theoretical basis for water pollution control in this basin.Although consistent results were obtained by all the evaluation methods,the comprehensive index method contains more information,which can fully present the number of over-standard items and the pollution degree of each section.Consequently,it is suggested to be widely popularized and applied.…”
