Information Erasure Inside Action Quanta
No full textQuantum states are operationally indistinguishable within finite-support Heisenberg cells. By coupling these de Gosson ``blobs'' into conjugate pairs of action quanta, we show that Landauer information erasure exhausts the available time and energy, causing the classical continuum to collapse into discrete configurations. Numerical results show that at low action, eigenstates are dense, but as action increases, they become sparse---consistent with the experimental difficulty in isolating pure states---stabilizing into the classical expectations of the correspondence principle. This model establishes an information-action constraint where finite capacity forces least action coarse-graining and the emergence of quantum mechanics

The application and mechanisms of photostimulation therapy in cognitive function of Alzheimer's disease patients: A scoping review
No full textAlzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive cognitive decline. Clinically, it is often accompanied by a series of symptoms including memory impairment, decreased executive function, language deterioration, and neuropsychiatric abnormalities, and is the leading cause of dementia. With the accelerating aging of the population, AD has become an increasingly serious global health problem, and its disease burden is continuously rising. Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Alzheimer's Disease International (ADI) show that currently more than 55 million people worldwide suffer from dementia, and this number is expected to increase to approximately 78 million by 2030 and surge to 152 million by 2050. AD is a chronic and complex disease involving multiple pathophysiological changes. Its pathogenesis is multifaceted, with the main pathological features being amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), as well as related astrogliosis, microglial activation, and cerebral amyloid angiopathy. These pathological changes lead to an imbalance in excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission in neurons, resulting in unbalanced neuronal activity, impaired neural network function, and consequently affecting the occurrence of gamma oscillations in the brain. Currently, the main drug treatment options for AD are cholinesterase inhibitors and the excitatory amino acid receptor antagonist memantine. However, these drugs do not slow down neuronal damage or stop disease progression, and may produce significant side effects, especially in the elderly. Therefore, finding an effective, safe, and low-side-effect non-pharmacological therapy is of great clinical significance.
Photostimulation therapy is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique based on photobiomodulation mechanisms. It utilizes light signals of specific wavelengths, intensities, and frequencies to act on visual and non-visual photoreceptor pathways, regulating brain neural oscillations, controlling the sleep-wake cycle, and influencing neurotransmitter release and neuroplasticity, thereby improving cognitive function and behavioral symptoms. Due to its non-invasiveness, ease of operation, and good patient tolerance, this therapy has gained some application in diseases such as sleep disorders and seasonal affective disorder. In recent years, it has been gradually introduced into the auxiliary management of AD and related cognitive disorders, but systematic summaries and comprehensive evaluations are relatively lacking. Therefore, this study uses a scoping review method to summarize and analyze the current application status and existing problems of phototherapy in the cognitive function of AD patients, and to analyze its mechanisms of action, in order to provide a reference for clinical practice

Dissemination, Implementation, and Sustainment of Consensus and Position Statements for Professionals in Physical Activity: A Scoping Review Protocol
No full textPhysical activity enhances health-related outcomes (Posadzki et al., 2020), reduce the risk of non-communicable disease (Anderson & Durstine, 2019), and support mental health and wellbeing (Mahindru et al., 2023). Whilst these benefits are widely detailed, the reported incidence of physical inactivity and sedentary behaviours remains high (Hallal et al., 2012; Lee et al., 2012; Ozemek et al., 2019; World Health Organisation, 2018). To reduce this prevalence, dissemination, implementation, and sustainment strategies must be adopted to enhance the uptake of physical activity interventions and recommendations. Namely, consensus statements and position statements are trusted sources of evidence that are created by expert consensus, and use up-to-date research to inform recommendations to the target population, including practitioners and professionals, as well as system actors. The present study aims to identify and assess the strategies that have been utilised to disseminate, implement, and sustain physical activity consensus statements and position statements targeted towards primary and system users, originating from the UK and Ireland, as well as those with a global scope

Metric Chronetic Theory (MCT) Phase 4: Empirical Validation of the 19.41 Metric Impedance Invariant against DES Year 6 and Quasar ID830 Data
No full textThis project presents Phase 4 of Metric Chronetic Theory, which focuses on testing the Holmes Law of Metric Impedance against newly available observational and laboratory data. Building on earlier theoretical work, Phase 4 evaluates whether the proposed vacuum‑lattice impedance constant can accurately account for three independent phenomena: the reduced clustering amplitude measured in DES Year 6, the extreme but stable accretion behavior of Quasar ID830, and small unexplained timing residuals observed in state‑of‑the‑art Strontium‑87 optical lattice clocks.
The goal of this phase is to determine whether a single invariant, previously defined in Phase 3, can consistently explain these diverse datasets without introducing new parameters. The results show strong alignment between the theory and observations, suggesting that the impedance framework may offer a unified explanation for late‑universe structure suppression, high‑rate quasar growth, and subtle timing anomalies in precision metrology.
Phase 4 also introduces a falsification pathway by proposing that the vacuum’s elastic properties could be detectable in controlled laboratory environments. This positions the theory not only as a cosmological model but as one that can be tested directly on Earth.
Overall, this phase transitions MCT from a purely theoretical construct to a predictive framework with clear observational and experimental touchpoints
