Owing to the reduced capacity for information processing following a stroke, patients commonly present with difficulties in performing activities of daily living that combine two or more tasks. To address this problem, in the present study, we investigated the effects of neurofeedback training on the abilities of stroke patients to perform dual motor tasks. We randomly assigned 20 patients who had sustained a stroke within the preceding 6 months to either a pseudo-neurofeedback (n = 10) or neurofeedback (n = 10) group. Both groups participated in a general exercise intervention for 8 weeks, three times a week for 30 min per session, under the same conditions. An electrode was secured to the scalp over the region of the central lobe (Cz), in compliance with the International 10-20 System. The electrode was inactive for the pseudo-training group. Participants in the neurofeedback training group received the 30-min neurofeedback training per session for reinforcing the sensorimotor rhythm. Electroencephalographic activity of the two groups was compared. In addition, selected parameters of gait (velocity, cadence [step/min], stance phase [%], and foot pressure) were analyzed using a 10-m walk test, attention-demanding task, walk task and quantified by the SmartStep system. The neurofeedback group showed significantly improved the regulation of the sensorimotor rhythm (p < 0.001) and ability to execute dual tasks (p < 0.01). Significant improvements on selected gait parameters (velocity and cadence; p < 0.05) were also observed. We thus propose that the neurofeedback training is effective to improve the dual-task performance in stroke patients.

A new fossil filefish, Aluterus shigensis sp. nov., with a close resemblance to the extant Aluterus scriptus (Osbeck), is described from the Middle Miocene Bessho Formation in Nagano Prefecture, central Japan. It is characterized by: 21 total vertebrae; very slender and long first dorsal spine with tiny anterior barbs; thin and lancet-shaped basal pterygiophore of the spiny dorsal fin, with its ventral margin separated from the skull; proximal tip of moderately slender first pterygiophore of the soft dorsal fin not reaching far ventrally; soft dorsal-fin base longer than anal-fin base; caudal peduncle having nearly equal depth and length; and tiny, fine scales with slender, straight spinules. The occurrence of this fossil filefish from the Bessho Formation is consistent with the influence of warm water currents suggested by other fossils, but it is inconsistent with the deep-water sedimentary environment of this Formation. This is the first fossil occurrence of a filefish in Asia; previously described fossil filefishes are known from the Pliocene and Pleistocene of Italy, the Pliocene of Greece, and the Miocene and Pliocene of North America. These fossil records suggest that the genus Aluterus had already been derived and was widely distributed during the Middle Miocene with taxa closely resembling Recent species.

Flow induced in-line oscillation of a structure with a circular or rectangular section was experimentally studied by free-oscillation tests in a wind tunnel. Detailed data of response amplitude of various cylinders have been acquired in a wide range of the reduced mass-damping parameter (Scruton number), by free-oscillation tests of two-dimensional cylinder spring-mounted to oscillate as a rigid cylinder. Flow induced in-line oscillation of the cylinder is certified to have two types of excitation mechanism; one is the so-called wake breathing effect accompanied with a symmetric vortex street and the other is the vortex excitation at a half of the critical reduced velocity. Also a fixed splitter plate was mounted behind a cylinder to eliminate the vortex shedding of alternate vortices from the cylinder, after Aguirre's experiments, and the results were compared with those without a splitter plate. As a result, we can classify the flow induced in line oscillation of the circular or rectangular cylinder. For a circular cylinder and a square one, two types of excitation phenomena appear in each reduced velocity region, the thin rectangular cylinder with the side ratio b/h=0.4 suffers from the vortex excitation, and the elongated rectangular cylinder with the side ratio b/h=2.5, is subjected to the wake breathing effect accompanied with a symmetric vortex street. It is found that fluidelastic characteristics of two types of in-line oscillations are quite different; i.e., the response amplitude are very sensitive to the reduced massdamping parameter, during the in line oscillation with a symmetric vortex street, while the oscillation of vortex excitation are rather insensitive.
