Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive technique that measures tissue perfusion using red blood cells oxygen saturation and venous occlusion plethysmography (VOP) is the gold standard to assess microvascular blood flow and function. The purpose of this study was to determine if NIRS can surrogate the microvascular blood flow assessment after an ischemic challenge obtained via VOP. Twenty apparently healthy subjects (10 males and 10 females), aged 18 to 35 years, were recruited for this single session study. NIRS probes were placed 40mm apart along the epicondylar muscles on the right forearm and on the tibialis anterior on the right lower leg, while VOP strain gauges were placed on the largest circumference on both right forearm and calf. Blood flow via VOP and NIRS variables (hemoglobin saturation (SO2), oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO2), and deoxyhemoglobin (HHb) slopes) were assessed before and after 5-min ischemic challenge. Person's correlations and intra-class correlations (ICC2k) were conducted for each of the NIRS variables vs VOP. There were moderate associations between of SO2 and HbO2 slopes and VOP (r = 0.59, p < 0.01 and r = 0.53, p < 0.05, respectively) at the lower body during resting conditions. There was a poor agreement between NIRS SO2 and VOP at the resting condition in the lower body (ICC2k = 0.45). There were no other associations between any of the other NIRS variables and VOP of the lower and upper body at resting or post-ischemic conditions. In conclusion, NIRS cannot surrogate VOP for measurements of microvascular blood flow at resting or post-ischemic conditions.

Abstract
Breeding for increased protein concentration is a priority in field peas. Having a quick, accurate, and non-destructive protein quantification method is critical for screening breeding materials, which the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) system can provide. Partial least square regression (PLSR) models to predict protein concentration were developed and compared for DA7250 and FT9700 NIRS systems. The reference protein data were accurate and exhibited a wider range of variation (15.3−29.8%). Spectral pre-treatments had no clear advantage over analyses based on raw spectral data. Due to the large number of samples used in this study, prediction accuracies remained similar across calibration sizes. The final PLSR models for the DA7250 and FT9700 systems required 10 and 13 latent variables, respectively, and performed well and were comparable (R2 = 0.72, RMSE = 1.22, and bias = 0.003 for DA7250; R2 = 0.79, RMSE = 1.23, and bias = 0.055 for FT9700). Considering three groupings for protein concentration (Low: <20%, Medium: ≥20%, but ≤25%, and High: >25%), none of the entries changed from low to high or vice versa between the observed and predicted values for the DA7250 system. Only a single entry moved from a low category in the observed data to a high category in the predicted data for the FT9700 system in the calibration set. Although the FT9700 system outperformed the DA7250 system by a small margin, both systems had the potential to predict protein concentration in pea seeds for breeding purposes. Wavelengths between 950 nm and 1650 nm accounted for most of the variation in pea protein concentration.

Abstract
Fusarium wilt is one of the most widespread diseases in carnation crops in a large number of countries. Plant protection products commonly used to remedy the disease have been considered ineffective and environmentally unsafe for commercial use. As an alternative, the use of suppressive growth media has been proposed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of a rapid method such as near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to monitor and evaluate suppressive media potential. The NIR spectra were collected from 6 plant growth media used in a series of trials to evaluate suppressiveness to carnation Fusarium wilt namely grape marc compost, cork compost, olive oil husk + cotton gin trash composted and mixed with rice husk, spent mushroom composted and mixed with peat, coir fiber and light peat. The NIR calibration models showed promising results for estimating pH, β-glucosidase activity, disease severity (AUDPC and RLSBX) in the growth media evaluated, with coefficients of determination of 0.99, 0.98, 0.98 and 0.90; SECV of 0.09, 11.63, 0.05 and 0.10; and RPD values of 13.86, 6.62, 7.19 and 3.24; respectively. NIR spectroscopy could become a useful non-destructive and fast analytical tool for the identification of Fusarium wilt suppressive composts, avoiding the use of reagents.

Abstract
In this study, Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy was adopted for the collection of 1200 spectra of three types of walnut materials after breaking the shells. A detection model of the walnut shell-kernel separation accuracy was established. The preprocessing method of de-trending (DT) was adopted. A classification model based on a support vector machine (SVM) and an extreme learning machine (ELM) was established with the principal component factor as the input variable. The effect of the penalty value (C) and kernel width (g) on the SVM model was discussed. The selection criteria of the number of hidden layer nodes (L) in the ELM model were studied, and a genetic algorithm (GA) was used to optimize the input layer weight (W) and the hidden layer threshold value (B) of the ELM. The results revealed that the classification accuracy of SVM and ELM models for the shell, kernel, and chimera was 97.78% and 97.11%. The proposed method can serve as a reference for the detection of walnut shell-kernel separation accuracy.

Abstract
Salmon and Cod are economically significant world-class fish that have high economic value. It is difficult to accurately sort and process them by appearance during harvest and transportation. Conventional chemical detection means are time-consuming and costly, which greatly affects the cost and efficiency of Fishery production. Therefore, there is an urgent need for smart Fisheries methods which use for the classification of mixed fish. In this paper, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to assess salmon and cod samples. This study aims to evaluate feasibility of a back-propagation neural network (BPNN) and a convolutional neural network (CNN) for identifying different species of fishes by the corresponding spectra in comparison to traditional chemometrics Partial Least Squares. After comparing the effects of different batch sizes, number of convolutional kernels, number of convolutional layers, and number of pooling layers on the classification of NIRS spectra comparing different structures of one-dimensional (1D)-CNN, we propose the 1D-CNN-8 model that is most suitable for the classification of mixed fish. Compared with the results of traditional chemometrics methods and BPNN, the prediction model of the 1D-CNN model can reach 98.00% Accuracy and the parameters are significantly better than others. Meanwhile, the parameters and floating-point operations of the optimal model are both small. Therefore, the improved CNN model based on the NIRS can effectively and quickly identify different kinds of fish samples and contribute to realizing edge computing at the same time.

Abstract
Background: The hyperventilation test is used in clinical practice for diagnosis and therapeutic purposes; however, in the absence of a standardized protocol, the procedure varies significantly, predisposing tested subjects to risks such as cerebral hypoxia and ischemia. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), a noninvasive technique performed for cerebral oximetry monitoring, was used in the present study to identify the minimum decrease in the end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) during hyperventilation necessary to induce changes on NIRS. Materials and Methods: We recruited 46 volunteers with no preexisting medical conditions. Each subject was asked to breathe at a baseline rate (8−14 breaths/min) for 2 min and then to hyperventilate at a double respiratory rate for the next 4 min. The parameters recorded during the procedure were the regional cerebral oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin concentrations via NIRS, ETCO2, and the respiratory rate. Results: During hyperventilation, ETCO2 values dropped (31.4 ± 12.2%) vs. baseline in all subjects. Changes in cerebral oximetry were observed only in those subjects (n = 30) who registered a decrease (%) in ETCO2 of 37.58 ± 10.34%, but not in the subjects (n = 16) for which the decrease in ETCO2 was 20.31 ± 5.6%. According to AUC-ROC analysis, a cutoff value of ETCO2 decrease >26% was found to predict changes in oximetry (AUC-ROC = 0.93, p < 0.0001). Seven subjects reported symptoms, such as dizziness, vertigo, and numbness, throughout the procedure. Conclusions: The rise in the respiratory rate alone cannot effectively predict the occurrence of a cerebral vasoconstrictor response induced by hyperventilation, and synchronous ETCO2 and cerebral oximetry monitoring could be used to validate this clinical test. NIRS seems to be a useful tool in predicting vasoconstriction following hyperventilation.

Abstract
The worldwide outbreak of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) has highlighted the need for a screening and monitoring system for infectious respiratory diseases in the acute and chronic phase. The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility of using a wearable near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) sensor to collect respiratory signals and distinguish between normal and simulated pathological breathing. Twenty-one healthy adults participated in an experiment that examined five separate breathing conditions. Respiratory signals were collected with a continuous-wave NIRS sensor (PortaLite, Artinis Medical Systems) affixed over the sternal manubrium. Following a three-minute baseline, participants began five minutes of imposed difficult breathing using a respiratory trainer. After a five minute recovery period, participants began five minutes of imposed rapid and shallow breathing. The study concluded with five additional minutes of regular breathing. NIRS signals were analyzed using a machine learning model to distinguish between normal and simulated pathological breathing. Three features: breathing interval, breathing depth, and O2Hb signal amplitude were extracted from the NIRS data and, when used together, resulted in a weighted average accuracy of 0.87. This study demonstrated that a wearable NIRS sensor can monitor respiratory patterns continuously and non-invasively and we identified three respiratory features that can distinguish between normal and simulated pathological breathing.

Abstract
The presence of water in the skin is crucial for maintaining the properties and functions of the skin, in particular its outermost layer, known as the stratum corneum, which consists of a lipid barrier. External exposures can affect the skin's hydration levels and in turn, alter its mechanical and physical properties. Monitoring these alterations in the skin's water content can be applicable in clinical, cosmetic, athletic and personal settings. Many techniques measuring this parameter have been investigated, with electrical-based methods currently being widely used in commercial devices. Furthermore, the exploration of optical techniques to measure hydration is growing due to the outcomes observed through the penetration of light at differing levels. This paper comprehensively reviews such measurement techniques, focusing on recent experimental studies and state-of-the-art devices.

Abstract
Background The function and viability of the brain depend on adequate oxygen supply. A decrease in cerebral blood supply causing cerebral desaturation may lead to many neurological complications. Direct measurement of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) assists in early detection and management. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been introduced for measuring rScO2. A pair of sensors are attached to the right and left forehead. However, there are some situations where the forehead of the patient is not accessible for sensor attachment (e.g., neurosurgery involving the frontal area; a bispectral index (BIS) sensor already attached, or a wound to the forehead); therefore, alternate sites for sensor attachment are required. The temporal area was proposed as an alternate site. The objective of this study was to assess the correlation and agreement of rScO2 measured at the forehead vs. the temporal area. Methods Adult patients undergoing cardiothoracic or vascular surgery were monitored for rScO2 using two pairs of ForeSight sensors. The first pair (A1 and A2) were attached to the right and left forehead, while the second pair (B1 and B2) were attached to the right and left temporal area. The rScO2 values measured from A1 vs. B1 and A2 vs. B2 were assessed for correlation and agreement using the Bland-Altman analysis. Results Data from 19 patients with 14,364 sets of data were analyzed. The data from A1 vs. B1 and A2 vs. B2 showed moderate positive correlation (r = 0.627; P < 0.0001 and r = 0.548; P < 0.0001). The biases of A1 vs. B1 and A2 vs. B2 were -2.3% (95% CI [-2.5 to -2.2]; P < 0.0001) and 0.7% (95% CI [0.6-0.8]; P < 0.0001). The lower and upper limits of agreement of A1 vs. B1 were -17.5% (95% CI [-17.7 to -17.3]) and 12.8% (95% CI [12.6-13.0]). The lower and upper limits of agreement of A2 vs. B2 were -14.6% (95% CI [-14.8 to -14.4]) and 16.0% (95% [CI 15.8-16.3]). Conclusions The rScO2 values measured from sensors at the frontal and temporal areas show a moderate correlation with sufficiently good agreement. The temporal area may be an alternative to the frontal area for cerebral oximetry monitoring.

Abstract
The accurate quantification of amino acids in maize breeding programs is challenging due to the high cost of analysis using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and other conventional methods. Using the Near-Infrared Spectroscopic (NIRS) method in breeding to screen many genotypes has proven to be a fast, cost-effective, and non-destructive method. Thus, this study aimed to develop and apply the NIRS prediction models for quantifying amino acids in biofortified quality protein maize (QPM). Sixty-three (63) QPM maize genotypes were used as the calibration set, and another twenty (20) genotypes were used as the validation set. The microwave hydrolysis system coupled with post-column derivatization with 6-amino-quinoline-succinimidyl-carbamate as the derivatization reagent and the HPLC method were used to generate the reference data set used for the calibration development. The calibration models were developed for essential and non-essential amino acids using WINSI Foss software. Good coefficients of determination in calibration (R2cal) of 0.91, 0.93, 0.93, and 0.91 and low standard errors in calibrations (SEC) of 0.62, 0.71, 0.26, and 1.75 were obtained for glutamic acids, alanine, proline, and leucine, respectively, while aspartic acids, serine, glycine, arginine, tyrosine, valines, and phenylalanine had fairly good R2Cal values of 0.86, 0.71, 0.81, 0.78, 0.68, 0.79, and 0.75. In contrast, poor (R2cal) was obtained for histidine (0.07), cystine (0.09), methionine (0.09), lysine (0.20), threonine (0.51), and isoleucine (0.09), respectively. The models’ prediction performances (R2pred) and standard error of prediction (SEP) were reasonably good for certain amino acids such as aspartic acid (0.90), glycine (0.80), arginine (0.94), alanine (0.90), proline (0.80), tyrosine (0.83), valine (0.82), leucine (0.90), and phenylalanine (0.88) with SEP values of 0.24, 0.39,0.24, 0.93, 0.47,0.34, 0.78, 2.20, and 0.77, respectively. However, certain amino acids had their R2pred below 0.50, which could be improved to become useful for screening purposes for those amino acids. Further work is recommended by including a training set representing the sample population’s variance to improve the model’s performance.

Abstract
In this study, 280 batches of Zingiberis Rhizoma samples from nine producing areas were analyzed to obtain infrared spectral information based on near-infrared spectroscopy(NIRS). Pluralistic chemometrics such as principal component analysis(PCA), partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA), orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA), K-nearest neighbors(KNN), support vector machine(SVM), random forest(RF), artificial neural network(ANN), and gradient boosting(GB) were applied for tracing of origins. The results showed that the discriminative accuracy of the spectral preprocessing by standard normal variate transformation coupled with the first derivative was 93.9%, which could be used for the construction of the discrimination model. PCA and PLS-DA score plots showed that samples from Shandong, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou could be effectively distinguished, but the remaining samples were partially overlapped. As revealed by the analysis results by machine learning algorithms, the AUC values of KNN, SVM, RF, ANN, and GB algorithms were 0.96, 0.99, 0.99, 0.99, and 0.98, respectively, with overall prediction accuracies of 83.3%, 89.3%, 90.5%, 91.7%, and 89.3%. It indicated that the developed model was reliable and the machine learning algorithm combined with NIRS for origin identification was sufficiently feasible. OPLS-DA showed that Zingiberis Rhizoma from Sichuan(genuine producing areas) could be significantly distinguished from other regions, with good discriminative accuracy, suggesting that the NIRS established in this study combined with chemometrics can be used for the identification of Zingiberis Rhizoma from Sichuan. This study established a rapid and nondestructive identification and reliable data analysis method for origin identification of Zingiberis Rhizoma, which is expected to provide a new idea for the origin tracing of Chinese medicinal materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mortality and brain injury are common adverse outcomes in infants born <28 weeks. Conventional pulse oximetry may not detect subclinical changes prior to deterioration and fails to detect changes within the brain. Increasing evidence supports the use of cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in the early care of preterm infants, yet the impact of specific interventions on cerebral oxygenation and the relationship between cerebral hypoxia and brain injury on MRI remain to be determined. METHODS/DESIGN 100 infants <28 completed weeks of gestation will be recruited for a prospective, multicenter intervention trial. After informed consent, infants will undergo cerebral NIRS monitoring starting within 6 h of birth and continuing through 72 h. Infants with persistent cerebral desaturation will receive interventions following a standard treatment algorithm selected by the provider based on the patient's clinical condition. Providers will record the timing and choice of intervention(s) and term equivalent brain MRI will be performed for survivors. There are three objectives of this study: 1) to identify the relationship between cerebral hypoxia burden and brain injury on term-equivalent MRI. 2) to identify most common interventions after cerebral hypoxia, and 3) to quantify frequency of occult cerebral hypoxia events. DISCUSSION There is increasing evidence for the role of early cerebral NIRS monitoring in the neuroprotective care of preterm infants. This phase-II trial will provide essential data to improve the intervention approach, model the effect size of interventions on a wider extent of brain injury, and quantify the discrepancy between measurements of systemic and cerebral hypoxia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Distiller's dried grains with solubles (DDGS) are coproducts of the biofuel industries that use corn as raw material. This cereal is commonly contaminated by mycotoxins, including fumonisins (FBs), which can pose a serious health threat to humans and animals. Corn DDGS are typically used as a protein-rich animal feed. As mycotoxins from the original cereal grains become concentrated in DDGS, mycotoxicological monitoring is highly required before their use as ingredient in the industry. RESULTS This work aimed to develop a methodology for predicting fumonisins B1 (FB1 ) and B2 (FB2 ) in corn DDGS using near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) technology associated with chemometric methods. One hundred and ninety corn DDGS samples originating from Brazilian ethanol plants and feed mills were included in this assessment. Two datasets were created: one for calibration (132 samples) and another for external validation (58 samples). Partial least squares regression and a cross-validation approach were applied to build the models. Liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry was used as the reference methodology. Calibration results of correlation coefficient and residual prediction deviation for FB1 and FB2 were, respectively, 0.90 and 0.88; and 2.16 and 2.06. CONCLUSION Values of the external validation dataset were compared and no statistical difference was found between groups, indicating a satisfactory predictive ability and confirming the potential of NIRS to predict fumonisins in corn DDGS. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is considered to be a fast and reliable non-destructive technique for fruit analysis. Considering that consumers are looking for strawberries with good sweetness, texture, and appearance, producers need to effectively measure the ripeness stage of strawberries to guarantee their final quality. Therefore, the use of this technique can contribute to decreasing the high level of waste and delivering good ripe strawberries to consumers. The present study aimed to evaluate the predictive capacity of NIRS technology, as a possible alternative to conventional methodology, for the analysis of the main organoleptic parameters of strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.). RESULTS Spectroscopic measurements and physicochemical analyses [total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity, colour, texture] of 'Victory' strawberries were carried out. The predictive models developed for titratable acidity, colour and texture were not good enough to quantify those parameters. By contrast, in the NIRS quantitative prediction analysis of TSS, it was observed that the spectral pre-treatment with the highest predictive capacity was the first derivative 1-5-5. The coefficients of determination were: 0.9277 for the calibration model; 0.5755 for the validation model; and 0.8207 for the prediction model, using a seven-factor partial least squares multivariate regression analysis. CONCLUSION Therefore, these results demonstrate that NIR analysis could be used to predict the TSS in strawberry, and further work on sampling is desirable to improve the prediction obtained in the present study. It is shown that NIRS technology is a suitable tool for determining quality attributes of strawberry in a fast, economic, and environmentally friendly way. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aging is associated with an increased likelihood of developing dementia, but a growing body of evidence suggests that certain modifiable risk factors may help prevent or delay dementia onset. Among these, physical activity (PA) has been linked to better cognitive performance and brain functions in healthy older adults and may contribute to preventing dementia. The current pilot study investigated changes in behavioral and brain activation patterns over a 1-year period in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and healthy controls taking part in regular PA. METHODS Frontal cortical response during a dual-task walking paradigm was investigated at baseline, at 6 months (T6), and at 12 months (T12) by means of a portable functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) system. The dual-task paradigm included a single cognitive task (2-back), a single motor task (walking), and a dual-task condition (2-back whilst walking). RESULTS Both groups showed progressive improvement in cognitive performance at follow-up visits compared to baseline. Gait speed remained stable throughout the duration of the study in the control group and increased at T6 for those with MCI. A significant decrease in cortical activity was observed in both groups during the cognitive component of the dual-task at follow-up visits compared to baseline, with MCI individuals showing the greatest improvement. CONCLUSIONS The observations of this pilot study suggest that taking part in regular PA may be especially beneficial for both cognitive performance and brain functions in older adulthood and, especially, in individuals with MCI. Our findings may serve as preliminary evidence for the use of PA as a potential intervention to prevent cognitive decline in individuals at greater risk of dementia.

Abstract
Pulmonary gas exchange analysis was compared to changes in muscle oxygen saturation as measured by near-infrared spectroscopy. First, ventilatory thresholds determined by common gas exchange analysis and breakpoints in muscle oxygen saturation were assessed for agreement during exercise with increasing intensity. Secondly, the relationship between muscle oxygen saturation as a surrogate for local oxygen extraction and peak oxygen uptake was assessed. In order to lend robustness to future NIRS testing on a broader scale, considering its potential for simple and cost-effective application, the question of a running versus a cycling modality was integrated into the design. Ten participants, of whom five were recreationally trained cyclists and five recreationally trained runners, were tested; each during a cycling test and a running test with increasing intensity to voluntary exhaustion. Muscle oxygen saturation and pulmonary gas exchange measurements were conducted. Bland-Altman analysis showed a moderate degree of agreement between both muscle oxygen saturation breakpoint 1 and muscle oxygen saturation breakpoint 2 and corresponding ventilatory threshold 1 and ventilatory threshold 2, for both cycling and running disciplines; generally speaking, muscle oxygen saturation breakpoints underestimated ventilatory thresholds. Additionally, a strong relationship could be seen between peak oxygen uptake and the minimally attained muscle oxygen saturation during cycling exercise. Muscle oxygen saturation measured using NIRS was determined to be a suitable method to assess ventilatory thresholds by finding breakpoints in muscle oxygen saturation, and muscle oxygen saturation minimum was linked to peak oxygen uptake.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Continuous monitoring of cerebral oxygenation is one of the diagnostic tools used in patients with brain injury. Direct and invasive measurement of cerebral oxygenation with a partial brain oxygen pressure (PbtO2) probe is promising but invasive. Noninvasive assessment of regional transcranial oxygen saturation using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) may be feasible. The aim of this study was to evaluate the interchangeability between PbtO2 and NIRS over time in patients with nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. METHODS This retrospective study was performed in a neurocritical care unit. Study participants underwent hourly PbtO2 and NIRS measurements over 72 h. Temporal agreement between markers was described by their pointwise correlation. A secondary analysis assessed the structure of covariation between marker trajectories using a bivariate linear mixed model. RESULTS Fifty-one patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage were included. A total of 3362 simultaneous NIRS and PbtO2 measurements were obtained. The correlation at each measurement time ranged from - 0.25 to 0.25. The global correlation over time was - 0.026 (p = 0.130). The bivariate linear mixed model confirmed the lack of significant correlation between the PbtO2 and NIRS measurements at follow-up. NIRS was unable to detect PbtO2 values below 20 mm Hg (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve 0.539 [95% confidence interval 0.536-0.542]; p = 0.928), and percentage changes in NIRS were unable to detect a decrease in PbtO2 ≥ 10% (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve 0.615 [95% confidence interval 0.614-0.616]; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS PbtO2 and NIRS measurements were not correlated. There is no evidence that NIRS could be a substitute for PbtO2 monitoring in patients with nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Abstract
AIMS Cerebral hypoperfusion is implicated in the pathogenesis of associations between orthostatic hypotension and adverse outcome such as falls, cognitive impairment, depression, and mortality. Although the blood pressure response to orthostasis has been well studied there is a lack of information on orthostatic cerebrovascular responses in older populations. METHODS AND RESULTS We measured cerebral hemodynamics, utilizing near infrared spectroscopy, coupled with peripheral blood pressure during an active stand in a large population of well-phenotyped older adults (N = 2764). Multi-level mixed effect models were utilized to investigate associations with age and sex, as well as confounders including anti-hypertensive medications. Normative cerebral oxygenation responses were also modelled utilizing generalized additive models for location, scale, and shape (GAMLSS). Older age groups experienced larger initial drops in oxygenation and a slower recovery, and responses also differed by sex. The drop after standing ranged from -1.85 % (CI: -2.02 to -1.68) in the males aged 54-59 years vs -1.15 % (CI: -1.31 to -1.00 %) in females aged 54-59 years, to -2.67 % (CI: -3.01 to -2.33) in males aged ≥ 80 years vs -1.97 % (CI: -2.32 to -1.62) females aged ≥ 80 years. Reduced oxygenation levels were also evident in those taking anti-hypertensive medications. CONCLUSION Cerebral autoregulation is impaired with age, particularly in older women and those taking anti-hypertensives. SBP during the stand explained some of the age gradient in the late recovery stage of the stand for the oldest age group. Reported orthostatic symptoms did not correlate with hypoperfusion. Therefore, measures of orthostatic cerebral flow should be assessed in addition to peripheral BP in older patients irrespective of symptoms. Further studies are required to investigate the relationship between NIRS measurements and clinical outcomes such as falls, cognitive impairment and depression.

Abstract
Age-related physiological impairment increases susceptibility to syncope. We tested the hypotheses that cerebral oxygenation during orthostatic provocation, as well as the level at which syncope occurs, differs according to age. Non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring and cerebral oximetry were applied during a head-up tilt test in 139 patients with vasovagal syncope (mean (SD) 45, (17) years, 60%-female); 121 patients with orthostatic hypotension (61.4 (19.2) years, 49.6%-female); and 82 patients with a negative head-up tilt test (45 (18) years, 61%-female). Group differences in cerebral tissue oxygenation levels and systolic blood pressure were assessed in supine at 3 and 10 min of orthostatic provocation, 30 s before (i.e., presyncopal phase) and during syncope in age groups of <30, 30−60, and >60 years. During the head-up tilt test, cerebral tissue oxygenation at the presyncopal phase decreased with age, both in patients with vasovagal syncope (<30 years: 66.9 ± 6.2, 30−60: 64.5 ± 6.1, >60: 62.2 ± 5.8%; p = 0.009) and orthostatic hypotension (<30: 67.4 ± 4.4, 30−60: 61.6 ± 6.2, >60: 57.5 ± 3.9; p < 0.001). Mean systolic blood pressure at the presyncopal phase did not differ according to age. Cerebral oxygenation prior to syncope in older individuals with vasovagal syncope and orthostatic hypotension is lower compared with younger individuals independently of systolic blood pressure. This suggests that the level of cerebral oxygenation at which syncope is elected is lower in older individuals.

Abstract
The susceptibility to hypnosis is a very pervasive psychophysiological trait characterized by different attentional abilities, information processing, and cardiovascular control. Since near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a good index of neurovascular coupling, we used it during mental computation (MC) and trail making task (TMT) in 13 healthy low-to-medium (med-lows) and 10 healthy medium-to-high hypnotizable (med-highs) participants classified according to the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale (SHSS), form A, and characterized for the level of proneness to be deeply absorbed in cognitive tasks by the Tellegen Absorption Scale (TAS). Med-highs reported greater absorption than med-lows. The tissue hemoglobin index (THI) and the tissue oxygenation index (TOI) increased across the tasks only in med-highs who displayed also different time courses of THI and TOI during MC and TMT, which indicates different tasks processing despite the two groups' similar performance. The findings suggest that the med-highs' tissue oxygenation is more finely adjusted to metabolic demands than med-lows'.

Abstract
Successful aging depends upon maintaining executive functions, which enable flexible response coordination. Although flexible responses are required for both hands and feet, as in driving, few studies have examined executive functions and brain activity in older adults, in terms of foot responses. In this study, younger (mean age = 20.8) and older participants (mean age = 68.7) performed a newly developed bimanual/bipedal response-position selection compatibility task while we measured their brain activity using functional near-infrared spectroscopy. Participants had to press either a left or right button using either their left or right foot (or hand), as directed by a two-dimensional cue signal. They executed either a straight or diagonal press response that mimicked stepping on the accelerator or brake pedal in a car. Foot responses produced more errors, longer reaction times, and greater brain activation than hand responses. Greater brain activation in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (BA 46) was observed in incongruent (i.e., diagonal) than in congruent (straight) trials for foot responses, but not for hand responses, suggesting that participants had difficulty executing a diagonal foot response (as braking in a car), but not a diagonal hand response. Older participants exhibited greater brain activation across the PFC than younger participants, indicating that older adults activate additional brain circuits to compensate for declining executive functions. We discuss potential relationships between declining executive functions of older adults and the frequent automobile accidents (i.e., missteps) in which they are involved.

Abstract
In patients with airway obstruction, an increase in breathing frequency at rest is commonly associated with a dynamic hyperinflation (DH). In such a situation, intercostal muscle oxygenation may be disturbed. This hypothesis was examined in a context of simulated airway obstruction in healthy subjects. After a control period of 5 min, twelve participants (20 ± 2 years) breathed at rest through a 20-cmH2O expiratory threshold load, either by increasing or reducing their respiratory rate (ETLF+ or ETLF). Tissue saturation index (TSI) and concentration changes in oxyhaemoglobin (oxy[Hb+Mb]) were measured as well as cardiorespiratory variables. Inspiratory capacity was decreased in ETLF+ (p < 0.001) and correlated with dyspnea. An increase in oxy[Hb+Mb] occurred in ETLF+ that was higher than in ETLF (p < 0.01). TSI was not different between conditions. In healthy subjects at rest, an increase in respiratory rate during a simulated obstruction with an expiratory threshold load resulted in paradoxical response with DH emergence while intercostal muscle oxygenation was preserved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The application of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) imaging in surgery is growing. This study aimed to systematically review the literature to summarize the intraoperative uses of NIRS in pediatric surgery. METHODS A PRISMA-compliant literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science from inception to February 2020. Title/abstract and then full-text screening were performed. The Oxford centre for Evidence Based Medicine tool (OCEBM) was used to evaluate the level of evidence of included studies. RESULTS Reviewers identified 53 articles. Of which, 34 studies (64.2%) were case-series and 11 (20.8%) were case reports. Most of the studies (n = 45, 84.9%) were level 4 on the OCEBM tool. The most common uses of NIRS were to visualize the biliary tree and to identify primary and metastatic malignant tissues. Other applications include assessment of perfusion of tissues including bowel anastomoses, and lymphatic surgery. Several advantages of the introduction of NIRS in pediatric surgery exist including having the potential to reduce operative time and intra/post-operative complications. Moreover, NIRS helps in detecting malignant tissues that can be missed by conventional imaging. However, NIRS has important limitations such as difficulty in identification of the biliary tree in obese patients or inflamed gallbladder, detection of small deeply localized malignant tissues, as well as the high cost. CONCLUSIONS NIRS is a promising modality that can be used intraoperatively to augment different pediatric surgical procedures. NIRS has important advantages and limitations compared to conventional surgery, however, more studies are required to evaluate its outcomes and cost-effectiveness. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
The spinal cord is a major structure of the central nervous system allowing, among other things, the transmission of afferent sensory and efferent motor information. During spinal surgery, such as scoliosis correction, this structure can be damaged, resulting in major neurological damage to the patient. To date, there is no direct way to monitor the oxygenation of the spinal cord intraoperatively to reflect its vitality. This is essential information that would allow surgeons to adapt their procedure in case of ischemic suffering of the spinal cord. We report the development of a specific device to monitor the functional status of biological tissues with high resolution. The device, operating with multiple wavelengths, uses Near-InfraRed Spectroscopy (NIRS) in combination with other additional sensors, including ElectroNeuroGraphy (ENG). In this paper, we focused primarily on aspects of the PhotoPlethysmoGram (PPG), emanating from four different light sources to show in real time and record biological signals from the spinal cord in transmission and reflection modes. This multispectral system was successfully tested in in vivo experiments on the spinal cord of a pig for specific medical applications.

Abstract
Concentration monitoring inside a tablet press feed frame is important not only to assess the composition of the powder blend being compressed into tablets but also to detect quality affecting phenomena such as powder segregation. Near infrared spectroscopy has been successfully used to monitor powder concentration inside feed frame; however, so far, this methodology does not provide information on local spatial variability, since it probes a very small area of powder sample. Near infrared chemical imaging (NIR CI) has the potential to improve process monitoring because it can simultaneously acquire a plurality of spectra covering nearly the entire width of feed frame, thereby making it possible to detect local variations in powder concentration.The present work uses both NIRS and NIR CI to monitor the concentration of Ibuprofen and Ascorbic acid in multi-component mock pharmaceutical blends flowing through the feed frame of an industrial tablet press. The concentrations of Ibuprofen and Ascorbic acid were successfully monitored in multi-component powder blends. NIR spectral wavelength ranges and pre-treatments were simultaneously optimized via a genetic algorithm. N-way PLS approach for concentration monitoring was found to be more suitable than regular PLS when analyzing spectral images and provided the ability to visualize spatial segregation.

Abstract
To determine how brain oxygenation is stably maintained during advancing age, cerebral oxygenation and hemoglobin were measured real-time at 10 Hz using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) at rest (30 seconds) and during a 10-repeated handgrip strength test (30 seconds) for 834 adults (M/F = 45/55%) aged 20-88 y. The amplitude of cerebral hemodynamic fluctuation was reflected by converting 300 values of % oxygen saturation and hemoglobin of each 30-second phase to standard deviation as indicatives of brain oxygenation variability (BOV) and brain hemodynamic variability (BHV) for each participant. Both BOV (+21-72%) and BHV (+94-158%) increased during the maximal voluntary muscle exertions for all age levels (α < 0.05), suggesting an increased vascular recruitment to maintain oxygen homeostasis in the brain. Intriguingly, BHV was >100 folds for both resting and challenged conditions (α < 0.001) in >80% of adults aged above 50 y despite similar BOV compared with young age counterparts, indicating a huge cost of amplifying hemodynamic oscillation to maintain a stable oxygenation in the aging brain. Since vascular endothelial cells are short-lived, our results implicate a hemodynamic compensation to emergence of daily deficits in replacing senescent endothelial cells after age 50 y.

Abstract
Currently, there is great interest in making neuroimaging widely accessible and thus expanding the sampling population for better understanding and preventing diseases. The use of wearable health devices has skyrocketed in recent years, allowing continuous assessment of physiological parameters in patients and research cohorts. While most health wearables monitor the heart, lungs and skeletal muscles, devices targeting the brain are currently lacking. To promote brain health in the general population, we developed a novel, low-cost wireless cerebral oximeter called FlexNIRS. The device has 4 LEDs and 3 photodiode detectors arranged in a symmetric geometry, which allows for a self-calibrated multi-distance method to recover cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation (SO2) at a rate of 100 Hz. The device is powered by a rechargeable battery and uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for wireless communication. We developed an Android application for portable data collection and real-time analysis and display. Characterization tests in phantoms and human participants show very low noise (noise-equivalent power <70 fW/√Hz) and robustness of SO2 quantification in vivo. The estimated cost is on the order of $50/unit for 1000 units, and our goal is to share the device with the research community following an open-source model. The low cost, ease-of-use, smart-phone readiness, accurate SO2 quantification, real time data quality feedback, and long battery life make prolonged monitoring feasible in low resource settings, including typically medically underserved communities, and enable new community and telehealth applications.

Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has emerged as an alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether a relevant alteration in cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (rSO2) could be detected following TAVI. Retrospective data analysis included 275 patients undergoing TAVI between October 2016 and December 2020. Overall, rSO2 significantly increased following TAVI (64.6 ± 10% vs. 68.1 ± 10%, p < 0.01). However, a significant rise was only observed in patients with a preoperative rSO2 < 60%. Of the hemodynamic confounders studied, hemoglobin, mean arterial pressure and blood pH were lowered, while central venous pressure and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) were slightly elevated (PaCO2: 39 (36−43) mmHg vs. 42 (37−47) mmHg, p = 0.03; pH: 7.41 (7.3−7.4) vs. 7.36 (7.3−7.4), p < 0.01). Multivariate linear regression modeling identified only hemoglobin as a predictor of altered rSO2. Patients with a EuroScore II above 4% and an extended ICU stay were found to have lower rSO2, while no difference was observed in patients with postoperative delirium or between the implanted valve types. Further prospective studies that eliminate differences in potential confounding variables are necessary to confirm the rise in rSO2. Future research should provide more information on the value of cerebral oximetry for identifying high-risk patients who will require further clinical interventions in the setting of the TAVI procedure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A driver's internal state is a critical factor influencing driving performance, especially in cases of surprise or shock in response to unexpected incidents while driving. This study was designed to investigate the brain activity of a senior driver in response to simulated unexpected vehicle motion, compared with a relaxed state and normal driving. METHODS To accomplish this, we created a driving simulator paradigm wherein participants were involved in one of the following three scenarios: sitting down and relaxing, normal driving around the city with traffic signals and other vehicles, and the exiting of a parking area. In the scenario where the driver was to exit the parking area, the gear was switched automatically by the CarMaker software without the driver being notified, leading to an unexpected condition. The driver's internal states were classified by artificial intelligence, based on information obtained through four-channel near-infrared spectroscopy. RESULTS Significant differences were observed between the hemodynamic responses obtained in the three conditions. Ultimately, this method can be used to update advanced driver assistance systems, with a view to preventing future traffic accidents, by activating in-vehicle safety functions based on the driver's condition. CONCLUSIONS A driver's internal states in a panic situation while driving can be detected using near-infrared spectroscopy and artificial intelligence.

Abstract
Several clinical conditions leading to traumatic brain injury can cause hematomas or edemas inside the cerebral tissue. If these are not properly treated in time, they are prone to produce long-term neurological disabilities, or even death. Low-cost, portable and easy-to-handle devices are desired for continuous monitoring of these conditions and Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) techniques represent an appropriate choice. In this work, we use Time-Resolved (TR) Monte Carlo simulations to present a study of NIR light propagation over a digital MRI phantom. Healthy and injured (hematoma/edema) situations are considered. TR Diffuse Reflectance simulations for different lesion volumes and interoptode distances are performed in the frontal area and the left parietal area. Results show that mean partial pathlengths, photon measurement density functions and time dependent contrasts are sensitive to the presence of lesions, allowing their detection mainly for intermediate optodes separations, which proves that these metrics represent robust means of diagnose and monitoring. Conventional Continuous Wave (CW) contrasts are also presented as a particular case of the time dependent ones, but they result less sensitive to the lesions, and have higher associated uncertainties.

Abstract
Genomic selection is a well-investigated approach that facilitates and supports selection decisions for complex traits and has meanwhile become a standard tool in modern plant breeding. Phenomic selection has only recently been suggested and uses the same statistical procedures to predict the targeted traits but replaces marker data with near-infrared spectroscopy data. It may represent an attractive low-cost, high-throughput alternative but has not been sufficiently studied until now. Here, we used 400 genotypes of maize (Zea mays L.) comprising elite lines of the Flint and Dent heterotic pools as well as 6 Flint landraces, which were phenotyped in multienvironment trials for anthesis-silking-interval, early vigor, final plant height, grain dry matter content, grain yield, and phosphorus concentration in the maize kernels, to compare the predictive abilities of genomic as well as phenomic prediction under different scenarios. We found that both approaches generally achieved comparable predictive abilities within material groups. However, phenomic prediction was less affected by population structure and performed better than its genomic counterpart for predictions among diverse groups of breeding material. We therefore conclude that phenomic prediction is a promising tool for practical breeding, for instance when working with unknown and rather diverse germplasm. Moreover, it may make the highly monopolized sector of plant breeding more accessible also for low-tech institutions by combining well established, widely available, and cost-efficient spectral phenotyping with the statistical procedures elaborated for genomic prediction - while achieving similar or even better results than with marker data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To understand the relationship between blood pressure changes during standing up and clinical outcome, cerebral oxygenation needs to be measured, which may be performed using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). However, the role of potential determinants of NIRS-derived orthostatic cerebral oxygenation, i.e., age, sex, type of postural change (i.e., standing up from sitting versus supine position), blood pressure (BP) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) is still unknown and needed to better interpret findings from studies using orthostatic NIRS measurements. METHODS 34 younger (median age 25 years, inter quartile range (IQR) 22-45) and 31 older adults (median age 77 years, IQR 72-81) underwent BP, BRS and NIRS measurements during standing up from sitting and supine position. Linear regression models were used to assess the potential determinant role of age, sex, type of postural change, BP and BRS in orthostatic cerebral oxygenation drop and recovery. Orthostatic cerebral oxygenation test-retest reliability was assessed using intra class correlations. RESULTS Younger age, male sex and standing up from supine compared to sitting position were positively associated with cerebral oxygenation drop; older age and standing up from sitting compared to supine position were associated with higher cerebral oxygenation recovery. Test-retest reliability was highest (ICC > 0.83) during standing up from supine position. CONCLUSION Based on the findings of this study, age, sex and type of postural change are significant determinants of NIRS-derived orthostatic cerebral oxygenation and should be taken into account in the interpretation of NIRS measurements. In the design of new studies, standing up from supine position is preferable (higher reliability) over standing up from sitting position.

This paper applied hyperspectral imaging (HSI) to predict roasted coffee aroma profile. Individual roast coffee beans were analysed by HSI and aroma by GC–MS. PLS models successfully predicted volatile aroma compounds in single coffee beans. Beans were successfully segregated into two batches with different aroma profiles.
Coffee aroma is critical for consumer liking and enables price differentiation of coffee. This study applied hyperspectral imaging (1000–2500 nm) to predict volatile compounds in single roasted coffee beans, as measured by Solid Phase Micro Extraction-Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry and Gas Chromatography-Olfactometry. Partial least square (PLS) regression models were built for individual volatile compounds and chemical classes. Selected key aroma compounds were predicted well enough to allow rapid screening (R2 greater than 0.7, Ratio to Performance Deviation (RPD) greater than 1.5), and improved predictions were achieved for classes of compounds - e.g. aldehydes and pyrazines (R2 ∼ 0.8, RPD ∼ 1.9). To demonstrate the approach, beans were successfully segregated by HSI into prototype batches with different levels of pyrazines (smoky) or aldehydes (sweet). This is industrially relevant as it will provide new rapid tools for quality evaluation, opportunities to understand and minimise heterogeneity during production and roasting and ultimately provide the tools to define and achieve new coffee flavour profiles.

Abstract
Muscle oxygen uptake (V̇O2m) evaluated from changes in the near-infrared spectroscopy oxygen desaturation slope during a 5-s arterial blood flow occlusion has been proposed as an estimation of the actual V̇O2m. However, its correspondence with pulmonary oxygen uptake (V̇O2p) during exercise remains unknown. PURPOSE to investigate the V̇O2m and V̇O2p relationship in females and males in response to prolonged constant-load cycling exercise at different intensities. METHODS Eighteen participants (8 females) visited the laboratory on six occasions: 1) ramp incremental test; 2-3) 30-min constant power output (constant-PO) exercise bout to determine the maximal lactate steady state (MLSS); 4-6) constant-PO exercise bouts to task failure at (i) 15% below MLSS (MLSS-15%); (ii) MLSS; (iii) 15% above MLSS (MLSS+15%). V̇O2m was estimated at baseline, at min 5, 10, 20, 30, and at task failure. V̇O2p was continuously recorded during the constant-PO bouts. RESULTS V̇O2pand V̇O2m significantly increased from min 5 to min 30 in MLSS condition (all p < 0.05) and from min 5 to min 10 in MLSS+15% condition (all p < 0.05). V̇O2pand V̇O2m were correlated (r2 adj range of 0.70-0.98, all p < 0.001) amongst exercise intensities in both females and males. Additionally, both variables were also correlated when expressed as percent (r2 adj range of 0.52-0.77, all p < 0.001). CONCLUSION V̇O2p and V̇O2m responses were similar when exercising below, at, and above the MLSS independently of sex. Most importantly, V̇O2p andV̇O2m were correlated regardless the exercise intensity and sex of the participants.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Intravascular imaging systems can identify lipid-rich and vulnerable plaques and help in treatment guidance. The comparability of different intracoronary imaging methods remains unclear. In this paper, we review atherosclerotic plaque pathology, plaque-stabilising effects of different lipid-lowering therapies and usage of intravascular imaging modalities. We present the results of our study in which we evaluated the correlation of the intravascular ultrasound iMAP system (iMAP-IVUS) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in the diagnosis of vulnerable coronary plaques. RECENT FINDINGS Lipids have an essential contribution to plaque evolution and vulnerability. Increase in plaque vulnerability alone even without increase in plaque burden defines progression of atherosclerosis. Lipidic tissue has a significant diagnostic value in patient risk stratification and can serve as a treatment target. Different vulnerable plaque parameters can be visualised with iMAP-IVUS and NIRS. Intravascular imaging systems can differ with regard to their sensitivity, specificity and limitations. Lipid-lowering therapy is crucial in plaque stabilisation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to examine the effects of theophylline use in preventing renal dysfunction in patients undergoing CHD surgery. METHODS A total of 94 patients aged 1-60 months were included in the study. Patients in the theophylline group were enrolled according to a pre-defined protocol for treatment administration, while controls were selected retrospectively from patients without theophylline treatment during the same period - who were matched according to critical baseline characteristics. RESULTS The incidence of acute kidney injury was similar between the two groups (p = 1.000). Higher urinary output and lower fluid balance were found intraoperatively and also postoperatively in the theophylline group (all, p < 0.050). Postoperative decrease in urinary output and estimated glomerular filtration rate were higher in the theophylline group (p < 0.050). Lower postoperative urea and creatinine levels were shown in theophylline recipients (p < 0.050). Urea levels increased significantly in the non-theophylline group during surgery (p < 0.001), and no significant change was observed in theophylline group (p = 0.136). Postoperative increase in creatinine and lactate levels was demonstrated in theophylline group (p < 0.050), and lactate levels were higher in the non-theophylline group during and after cardiopulmonary bypass (p = 0.010). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed less reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate with higher age and in the presence of theophylline use (p < 0.050). CONCLUSION Although we demonstrated a similar incidence of acute kidney injury in the both groups, we revealed an important decrease in serum creatinine, urea and lactate levels, accompanied by improved estimated glomerular filtration rate, increased urine output and decreased fluid overload, with theophylline treatment, suggesting that renal functions significantly improved with the use of theophylline.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate regional splanchnic and cerebral tissue oxygen saturation in preterm infants <30 weeks gestation. METHODS Cerebral (cTOI) and splanchnic (sTOI) Tissue Oxygenation Index were measured weekly in 5 min epochs for a total period of 60 min using NIRS (NIRO-300) for the first 8 weeks of life, in 48 appropriately grown preterm infants born at <30 weeks gestation. Infants who developed HPI and/or NEC (n = 12) and those that died (n = 1) were excluded from our main outcome measure of regional gut and cerebral tissue oxygenation in healthy preterm infants <30 weeks gestation. RESULTS Median birthweight 789 g (460-1486), gestational age 25+6 weeks (23+0-29+1) and 51.4% female. 217 NIRS measurements were completed across the first 8 weeks of life. Mean weekly cTOI ranged from 56.8-65.4% and sTOI ranged from 36.7-46.0%. Mean cTOI was significantly higher than mean sTOI (p < 0.001) throughout the first 8 weeks of life. Mean cTOI decreased significantly with increasing postnatal age [-0.59% each week (-1.26% to -0.07%) p = 0.04]. None of the examined confounding factors had a significant effect. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report of regional cerebral and splanchnic tissue oxygen saturation ranges during the first 8 weeks of life for preterm infants born at <30 weeks gestation.

Abstract
Patients palliated with Total Cavopulmonary Connection have a lower muscle mass and a lower exercise capacity. We assessed calf muscle oxidative metabolism during and after heel raise exercise to exhaustion in young patients with TCPC compared to healthy peers. Near-infrared spectroscopy was used for measuring oxygen metabolism in the medial portion of the gastrocnemius muscle. Forty-three patients with TCPC, aged 6-18 years, were compared with 43 age and sex-matched healthy control subjects. Subgroups were formed to include children (6-12 years) and adolescents (13-18 years) to determine if these age groups influenced the results. During exercise, for the patients compared to controls there was a lower increase in deoxygenated hemoglobin (oxygen extraction) (5.13 ± 2.99au vs. 7.75 ± 4.15au, p = 0.001) and a slower rate of change in total hemoglobin (blood volume) (0.004 ± 0.015au vs 0.016 ± 0.01au, p = 0.001). Following exercise, patients exhibited a slower initial increase in tissue oxygenation saturation index (0.144 ± 0.11au vs 0.249 ± 0.226au, p = 0.007) and a longer half-time to maximum hyperemia (23.7 ± 11.4 s vs 16.8 ± 7.5 s, p = 0.001). On the subgroup level, the adolescents differed compared to healthy peers, whereas the children did not. Young patients with TCPC had impaired oxidative metabolism during exercise and required a longer time to recover. In that the differences were seen in the adolescent group and not in the children group may indicate a declining function with age.

Abstract
Disruptions in oxidative metabolism may occur in multiple sclerosis and other demyelinating neurological diseases. The impact of demyelination on metabolic rate is also not understood. It is possible that mitochondrial damage may be associated with many such neurological disorders. To study oxidative metabolism with one model of demyelination, we implemented a novel multimodal imaging technique combining Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) and MRI to cuprizone mouse model. The cuprizone model is used to study demyelination and may be associated with inhibition of mitochondrial function. Cuprizone mice showed reduced oxygen extraction fraction (-39.1%, p≤0.001), increased tissue oxygenation (6.4%, p≤0.001), and reduced cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen in cortical gray matter (-62.1%, p≤0.001). These changes resolved after the cessation of cuprizone exposure and partial remyelination. A decrease in hemoglobin concentration (-34.4%, p≤0.001), but no change in cerebral blood flow were also observed during demyelination. The oxidized state of the mitochondrial enzyme, Cytochrome C Oxidase (CCO) increased (46.3%, p≤0.001) while the reduced state decreased (-34.4%, p≤0.05) significantly in cuprizone mice. The total amount of CCO did not change significantly during cuprizone exposure. Total CCO did decline after recovery both in control (-23.1%, p≤0.01) and cuprizone (-28.8%, p≤0.001) groups which may relate to age. A reduction in the magnetization transfer ratio, indicating demyelination, was found in the cuprizone group in the cerebral cortex (-3.2%, p≤0.01) and corpus callosum (-5.5%, p≤0.001). In summary, we were able to detect evidence of altered CCO metabolism during cuprizone exposure, consistent with a mitochondrial defect. We observed increased oxygenation and reduced metabolic rate associated with reduced myelination in the gray and white matter. The novel multimodal imaging technique applied here shows promise for noninvasively assessing parameters associated with oxidative metabolism in both mouse models of neurological disease and for translation to study oxidative metabolism in the human brain.

Abstract
Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) is a major contributor to respiratory disease in cattle worldwide. Traditionally, BRSV infection is detected based on non-specific clinical signs, followed by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the results of which can take days to obtain. Near-infrared aquaphotomics evaluation based on biochemical information from biofluids has the potential to support the rapid identification of BRSV infection in the field. This study evaluated NIR spectra (n = 240) of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) from dairy calves (n = 5) undergoing a controlled infection with BRSV. Changes in the organization of the aqueous phase of EBC during the baseline (pre-infection) and infected (post-infection and clinically abnormal) stages were found in the WAMACS (water matrix coordinates) C1, C5, C9, and C11, likely associated with volatile and non-volatile compounds in EBC. The discrimination of these chemical profiles by PCA-LDA models differentiated samples collected during the baseline and infected stages with an accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity >93% in both the calibration and validation. Thus, biochemical changes occurring during BRSV infection can be detected and evaluated with NIR-aquaphotomics in EBC. These findings form the foundation for developing an innovative, non-invasive, and in-field diagnostic tool to identify BRSV infection in cattle.

Abstract
Advanced manufacturing techniques have enabled low-cost, on-chip spectrometers. Little research exists, however, on their performance relative to the state of technology systems. The present study compares the utility of a benchtop FOSS NIRSystems 6500 (FOSS) to a handheld NeoSpectra-Scanner (NEO) to develop models that predict the composition of dried and ground grass, and alfalfa forages. Mixed-species prediction models were developed for several forage constituents, and performance was assessed using an independent dataset. Prediction models developed with spectra from the FOSS instrument had a standard error of prediction (SEP, % DM) of 1.4, 1.8, 3.3, 1.0, 0.42, and 1.3, for neutral detergent fiber (NDF), true in vitro digestibility (IVTD), neutral detergent fiber digestibility (NDFD), acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL), and crude protein (CP), respectively. The R2P for these models ranged from 0.90 to 0.97. Models developed with the NEO resulted in an average increase in SEP of 0.14 and an average decrease in R2P of 0.002.

Abstract
Coffee is both a vastly consumed beverage and a chemically complex matrix. For a long time, an arduous chemical analysis was necessary to resolve coffee authentication issues. Despite their demonstrated efficacy, such techniques tend to rely on reference methods or resort to elaborate extraction steps. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and the aquaphotomics approach, on the other hand, reportedly offer a rapid, reliable, and holistic compositional overview of varying analytes but with little focus on low concentration mixtures of Robusta-to-Arabica coffee. Our study aimed for a comparative assessment of ground coffee adulteration using NIRS and liquid coffee adulteration using the aquaphotomics approach. The aim was to demonstrate the potential of monitoring ground and liquid coffee quality as they are commercially the most available coffee forms. Chemometrics spectra analysis proved capable of distinguishing between the studied samples and efficiently estimating the added Robusta concentrations. An accuracy of 100% was obtained for the varietal discrimination of pure Arabica and Robusta, both in ground and liquid form. Robusta-to-Arabica ratio was predicted with R2CV values of 0.99 and 0.9 in ground and liquid form respectively. Aquagrams results accentuated the peculiarities of the two coffee varieties and their respective blends by designating different water conformations depending on the coffee variety and assigning a particular water absorption spectral pattern (WASP) depending on the blending ratio. Marked spectral features attributed to high hydrogen bonded water characterized Arabica-rich coffee, while those with the higher Robusta content showed an abundance of free water structures. Collectively, the obtained results ascertain the adequacy of NIRS and aquaphotomics as promising alternative tools for the authentication of liquid coffee that can correlate the water-related fingerprint to the Robusta-to-Arabica ratio.

Abstract
Broadband near-infrared spectroscopy (bNIRS) has the potential to provide non-invasive measures of cerebral haemodynamic changes alongside changes in cellular oxygen utilisation through the measurement of mitochondrial enzyme cytochrome-c-oxidase (oxCCO). It therefore provides the opportunity to explore brain function and specialisation, which remains largely unexplored in infancy. We used bNIRS to measure changes in haemodynamics and changes in oxCCO in 4-to-7-month-old infants over the occipital and right temporal and parietal cortices in response to social and non-social visual and auditory stimuli. Changes in concentration of oxygenated-haemoglobin (Δ[HbO2]), deoxygenated haemoglobin (Δ[HHb]) and change in the oxidation state of oxCCO (Δ[oxCCO]) were calculated using changes in attenuation of light at 120 wavelengths between 780 and900 nm, using the UCLn algorithm. For 4 infants, the attenuation changes in a subset of wavelengths were used to perform image reconstruction, in an age-matched infant model, for channels over the right parietal and temporal cortices, using a multispectral approach which allows direct reconstruction of concentration change data. The volumetric reconstructed images were mapped onto the cortical surface to visualise the reconstructed changes in concentration of HbO2 and HHb and changes in metabolism for both social and non-social stimuli. Spatially localised activation was observed for Δ[oxCCO] and Δ[HbO2] over the temporo-parietal region, in response to the social stimulus. This study provides the first reconstructed images of changes in metabolism in healthy, awake infants.

Abstract
A deficiency in lumbar muscle blood circulation is considered to be a major risk factor for non-specific low back pain. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in relative circulation over time in the lumbar multifidus in different positions on sitting.Twelve healthy subjects (7 males, 5 females, average age: 20.9 years) without low back pain for the past 12 months were recruited. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to non-invasively measure total haemoglobin (Total-Hb) and oxygenated haemoglobin (Oxy-Hb) in the lumbar multifidus at the L5-S1 segment. Subjects were asked to move into either 60-degree trunk-flexed or 20-degree trunk-extended position from the starting (standing in neutral) position in 3 s, timed by a metronome, and to maintain these positions for 30 s. The measurements of Total-Hb and Oxy-Hb were compared at -3 (neutral position), 0, 10, 20, and 30 s in each flexed and extended position on sitting.In flexion, Total-Hb and Oxy-Hb of the lumbar multifidus were significantly decreased from a neutral (-3 s) to flexed (0 s) position (Total-Hb: p = 0.002, Oxy-Hb: p = 0.004); however, there were no significant differences in the flexed position. In extension, Total-Hb and Oxy-Hb of the lumbar multifidus were significantly increased from 0 to 10 s (Total-Hb: p < 0.001, Oxy-Hb: p < 0.001); however, there were no significant differences from the neutral (-3 s) to extended (0 s) position, or from 10 to 30 s.The results of this study indicate that the intramuscular circulation of the lumbar multifidus decreases immediately once the trunk starts moving into a flexed position on sitting. On the other hand, the intramuscular circulation of the lumbar multifidus increases for up to 10 s once the trunk starts moving into an extended position.

Abstract
There is no ideal single gut tissue or inflammatory biomarker available to help to try and identify Necrotising Enterocolitis (NEC) before its clinical onset. Neonatologists are all too familiar with the devastating consequences of NEC, and despite many advances in neonatal care the mortality and morbidity associated with NEC remains significant. In this article we review Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) as a method of measuring regional gut tissue oxygenation. We discuss its current and potential future applications, including considering its effectiveness as a possible new weapon in the early identification of NEC.
