Electromagnetic field stimulation for long-term mobility assessment after sciatic nerve injury.

This animal study evaluated electromagnetic field (EMF) stimulation as a treatment after sciatic nerve injury in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Rats received low-intensity (60–100 G; 6–10 mT) or high-intensity (140–200 G; 14–20 mT) EMF exposure for 2 hours/day over 4 weeks. The abstract reports improved motor/mobility…

The relationship between mobile phone location sensor data and depressive symptom severity.

This observational study examined whether passively collected smartphone GPS features relate to depressive symptom severity in 48 college students over 10 weeks. Several mobility features (including location variance, entropy, and circadian movement) were reported to correlate with PHQ-9 scores. Associations were…

Dominant mobility modulation by the electric field effect at the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface.

This Physical Review Letters paper reports magnetotransport measurements on a gated LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface to assess the main effect of an applied gate electric field. The authors find that mobility changes dominate over sheet carrier density changes (mobility variation reported as nearly fivefold larger). They also…
