Smartphones have revolutionized our daily lives, becoming portable pocket computers with easy internet access. India, the second-highest smartphone and internet user, experienced a significant rise in smartphone usage between 2013 and 2024. Prolonged smartphone use, exceeding 20 min at a time, can lead to physical and mental health issues, including psychophysiological disorders. Digital devices and… Continue reading Digital #Eye #Strain Monitoring for One-Hour #Smartphone Engagement Through Eye Activity Measurement System

Decoding #memory function through naturalistic gaze patterns
#Eye movements are closely linked to encoding and retrieval processes, with changes in viewing behavior reflecting age- and pathology-related memory decline. In the current study, we leveraged this relationship to explore possible gaze-based indicators of memory function. Across two task-free viewing experiments, we investigated changes in naturalistic viewing behavior across five participant groups spanning a… Continue reading Decoding #memory function through naturalistic gaze patterns
Saccade-related neural communication in the human medial temporal lobe is modulated by the social relevance of stimuli
Humans predominantly explore their environment by moving their eyes. To optimally communicate and process visual information, neural activity needs to be coordinated with the execution of eye movements. We investigated the coordination between visual exploration and interareal neural communication by analyzing local field potentials and single neuron activity in patients with epilepsy. We demonstrated that… Continue reading Saccade-related neural communication in the human medial temporal lobe is modulated by the social relevance of stimuli
Neurofilament light chain in the vitreous humor of the #eye
Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a promising biomarker of neurodegeneration in the cerebrospinal fluid and blood. This study investigated the presence of NfL in the vitreous humor and its associations with amyloid beta, tau, inflammatory cytokines and vascular proteins, apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotypes, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores, systemic disease, and ophthalmic diseases.. ..NfL was… Continue reading Neurofilament light chain in the vitreous humor of the #eye
