The impact of monolingual and bilingual subtitles on visual attention, cognitive load, and comprehension by Sixin Liao, Jan-Louis Kruger, Stephen Doherty

“…Our results indicate that viewers’ visual attention allocation to L1 subtitles was more stable than to L2 subtitles and less sensitive to the increased visual competition in the bilingual condition, which, we argue, can be attributed to the language dominance of their native language. …”

Impact of white noise on spatial navigation of people without visual cues by Shehzaib Shafique, Silvia Zanchi, Monica Gori, Walter Setti, Claudio Campus, Carlos Beltran, Gian Luca Bailo, Alessio Del Bue

“…Using a novel motion-tracking technology, SensFloor $$^\circledR$$ , participants completed navigation tasks under two conditions: a unisensory condition (passive proprioceptive cues only) and a multisensory condition (proprioception + white noise). We found that participants’ navigational accuracy significantly improved under the multisensory condition. …”

Using phenotyping to visualize and identify selfish bacteria: a methods guide by G. Reintjes, G. Giljan, B. M. Fuchs, C. Arnosti, R. Amann

“…This study highlights the significant prevalence of “selfish uptake” among bacteria—often overlooked by standard microbial activity assessments—and presents the method used to quantify and identify these “selfish” bacteria. Found in diverse habitats such as anoxic gut environments, oxygenated waters, sediments, and soils, their widespread presence underscores the necessity of revisiting current methodologies to include these crucial organisms. …”

Modern Methodological Approaches to the Correction of Astenopia in Patients with Visual-Intensive Work by I. G. Ovechkin, E. I. Belikova, A. A. Kozhukhov, M. D. Pozharitskii, V. E. Yudin, A. A. Budko, A. V. Shakula

“…In addition, the practical expediency of applying a multidisciplinary approach to the correction of asthenopia, based on the complex effects of specific and non-specific methods of stimulation of vision. It was found that the combined use of multidirectional technologies of physical impact (low-energy laser radiation, cranial osteopathic effects and special training of the cervical-thoracic spine) provides effective correction of accommodation disorders, which is confirmed by a pronounced, statistically significant positive dynamics of clinical and functional, ophthalmic-ergonomic and subjective indicators of the visual system after a course of therapeutic and restorative measures.…”
