Intrinsic coupling of neuronal assemblies constitutes a key feature of ongoing brain activity, yielding the rich spatiotemporal patterns observed in neuroimaging data and putatively supporting cognitive processes. Intrinsic coupling has been investigated in electrophysiological recordings using two types of functional connectivity measures: amplitude and phase coupling. These two coupling modes...

A method for rapid, accurate measurement of saccade amplitude, duration, and velocity (average and maximum) was developed as a functional test of the extraocular motor system. Recordings were made with a direct-current electro-oculographic system, and data analysis was performed on a laboratory digital computer. Saccade amplitude and duration were found to be linearly correlated in 25 normal su...

OBJECTIVES The inverse relationship between QT interval variability (QTV) and T wave amplitude potentially confounds QT variability assessment. We quantified the influence of the T wave amplitude on QTV in a comprehensive dataset and devised a correction formula. METHODS Three ECG datasets of healthy subjects were analyzed to model the relationship between T wave amplitude and QTV. To derive ...

This study investigated the relationship among resistive load magnitude (DeltaR), the cortical evoked potential P(1) peak amplitude of the respiratory-related evoked potential (RREP), mouth pressure (Pm), esophageal pressure (Pes), transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi), and resistive load magnitude estimation (ME) in human subjects. The RREP, Pdi, Pes, Pm, and ME were recorded in response to three ...

Chen and Dohm predicted theoretically in 2004 that the widely believed universality principle is violated in the Ising model on the simple cubic lattice with more than only six nearest neighbours. Schulte and Drope by Monte Carlo simulations found such violation, but not in the predicted direction. Selke and Shchur tested the square lattice. Here we check only this univer-sality for the suscept...
