Management of metastatic spinal disease in low- and middle-income countries: an international survey of practices and challenges in Latin America

Spinal metastases impose urgent diagnostic and therapeutic demands; however, evidence from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) in Latin America is sparse. We aimed to characterize real-world practices, access gaps, and priorities to in-form context-adapted guidelines. We con...

Color as a gate to verification: Super-additive costs in oculomotor disengagement

Visual search theories distinguish between attentional capture and disengagement, yet how multiple feature dimensions combine to delay disengagement remains unclear. This study investigated whether shared features (color, shape, object category) produce additive or super-additive...

Does increased staging complexity influence expert agreement in dental age estimation?

Dental age estimation (DAE) is a well-established procedure in current practice, and it is frequently required in forensic and legal investigations. This study aimed to evaluate the intra- and inter-observer reliability of dental development staging among forensic practitioners u...

Teaching Signal Synchronization in Deep Neural Networks with Prospective Neurons

Abstract Working memory requires the brain to maintain information from the recent past to guide ongoing behavior. Neurons can contribute to this capacity by slowly integrating their inputs over time, creating persistent activity that outlasts the original stimulus. However, when...
