    Abstract When we memorize multiple words simultaneously, semantic relatedness among those words assists memory. For example, the information about "apple", "banana," and "orange" will be connected via a common concept of "fruits" and become easy to retain and recall. Neural mechanisms underlying this semantic integration in verbal working memory remain unclear. Here I used electroencephalography (EEG) and investigated neural signals when healthy human participants memorized five nouns semantically related (Sem trial) or not (NonSem trial). The regularity of oscillatory signals (8-30 Hz) during the retention period was found to be lower in NonSem than Sem trials, indicating that memorizing words unrelated to each other induced a non-harmonic (irregular) waveform in the temporal cortex. These results suggest that (i) semantic features of a word are retained as a set of neural oscillations at specific frequencies and (ii) memorizing words sharing a common semantic feature produces harmonic brain responses through a resonance or integration (sharing) of the oscillatory signals.

    Abstract Integrating visual and auditory information is an important ability in various cognitive processes, although its neural mechanisms remain unclear. Several studies indicated a close relationship between one's temporal binding window (TBW) for audio-visual interaction and their alpha rhythm in the brain (individual alpha frequency or IAF). A recent study by Buergers and Noppeney [Buergers, S., & Noppeney, U. The role of alpha oscillations in temporal binding within and across the senses. Nature Human Behaviour, 6, 732-742, 2022], however, challenged this view using a new approach to analyze behavioral data. Conforming to the same procedures by Buergers and Noppeney, here, I analyzed the data of my previous study and examined a relationship between TBW and IAF. In contrast to Buergers and Noppeney, a significant correlation was found between occipital IAF and a new behavioral measure of TBW. Some possibilities that caused these opposing results, such as a variability of "alpha band" across studies and a large inter-individual difference in magnitude of the fission illusion, are discussed.

    Abstract Presenting one flash with two beeps induces a perception of two flashes (audio-visual [AV] fission illusion), while presenting two flashes with one beep induces a perception of one flash (fusion illusion). Although previous studies showed a relationship between the frequency of the alpha rhythm (alpha cycle) and one's susceptibility to the fission illusion, the relationship between neural oscillations and the fusion illusion is unknown. Using electroencephalography, here I investigated the frequency of oscillatory signals in the pre-stimulus period and found a significant correlation between the beta rhythm and the fusion illusion; specifically, participants with a lower beta frequency showed a larger fusion illusion. These data indicate two separate time windows of AV integration in the human brain, one defined by the alpha cycle (fission) and another defined by the beta cycle (fusion).

    Abstract Medical science has often used adult males as the standard to establish pathological conditions, their transitions, diagnostic methods, and treatment methods. However, it has recently become clear that sex differences exist in how risk factors contribute to the same disease, and these differences also exist in the efficacy of the same drug. Furthermore, the elderly and children have lower metabolic functions than adult males, and the results of clinical trials on adult males cannot be directly applied to these patients. Spontaneous reporting systems have become an important source of information for safety assessment, thereby reflecting drugs' actual use in specific populations and clinical settings. However, spontaneous reporting systems only register drug-related adverse events (AEs); thus, they cannot accurately capture the total number of patients using these drugs. Therefore, although various algorithms have been developed to exploit disproportionality and search for AE signals, there is no systematic literature on how to detect AE signals specific to the elderly and children or sex-specific signals. This review describes signal detection using data mining, considering traditional methods and the latest knowledge, and their limitations.

    Abstract The all-electron first-principles GW+Bethe-Salpeter method was applied to six carbazole benzonitrile (CzBN) derivatives, which were recently reported to be both thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) active and inactive despite their singlet-triplet splittings being commonly around 0.2 eV. The present method successfully reproduced very similar photoabsorption spectra as experiments from the viewpoint of the peak positions and relative peak heights. We also performed exciton analysis with the exciton wave functions for several lowest singlet and triplet exciton states to reveal the details of the optical properties. We applied this to not only the present six CzBN derivatives but also 18 other TADF molecules and proposed a new exciton map to classify the molecules as the TADF active/inactive by using the exciton binding energy in the vertical axis and the ratio of electron and hole delocalization in the horizontal axis. Our results suggest two possible TADF mechanisms: spatially less localized hole states than the electron states where the exciton binding energy is proportional to the ratio of hole and electron delocalization and spatially more localized hole states than the electron states where the exciton binding energy should be large.
