IMPROVING WORKING MEMORY PERFORMANCE IN HEALTHY OLDER ADULTS: INVESTIGATING THE TRAINING EFFECTS ON CENTRAL EXECUTIVE THROUGH A QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH

Introduction: Working memory (WM) training is widely recognized as an effective intervention to enhance WM capacity in the elderly.This study aims to explore the impact of WM training on both criterion and near-transfer tasks in older adults.Method: Utilizing a quasi-experimental design, this research involved 30 participants aged 60 to 83.Particip

Whole genome duplication events have occurred frequently during the course of vertebrate evolution.To better understand the influence of polyploidization on the fish genome, we herein used the autotetraploid Carassius auratus (4n = 200, RRRR) (4nRR) resulting from the whole genome duplication of Carassius auratus (2n = 100, RR) (RCC) to explore the

Abstract Background Kinetoplastids are a flagellated group of protists, including some parasites, such as Trypanosoma and Leishmania species, that can cause diseases in humans and other animals.The genomes of these species enclose a fraction of retrotransposons including VIPER and TATE, two poorly studied transposable elements that encode a tyrosin
