Here, we investigated the feasibility and efficacy of a novel neurofeedback system, neuroMoon (nM), on cognitive abilities compared with one of the most popular perceptual-cognitive training (PCT) tools both in sports and rehabilitation called NeuroTracker (NT). Thirty-one young athletes performed a comprehensive battery of cognitive tests from the Vienna Test System before and after a 12-session computer-based cognitive training program using nM (n = 11, age 22.6 ± 3.8 years), nM sham (CON, n = 10, age 20.3 ± 1.2 years) or NT (n = 10, age 20.5 ± 1.7 years) device. A series of repeated-measures ANOVA was performed to detect changes in cognitive abilities in response to the training. Participants had faster median reaction time in both the color-naming and word-reading conditions of the Stroop test (all p < 0.005), regardless of group. Regarding the task switching test, statistical analysis indicated faster working time and mean reaction time of the incongruent stimuli, repetition task, and shifting task (all p < 0.005), nevertheless, these changes were also regardless of group. In addition, we found fewer omitted (pre: 17.5 ± 8.3, post: 6.4 ± 1.5, d = 1.311) and more correct (pre: 261.6 ± 36.1, post: 278.6 ± 38.7, d = − 1.020) post-intervention answers in the determination test, regardless of group. Finally, participants in each group performed the digit span backward test with larger post (6.42 ± 1.54) vs. pre (5.55 ± 1.43) scores following the PCT (d = − 0.801). Overall, PCT with nM as compared with NT induced similar results in cognitive abilities suggesting its potential to be used to achieve and maintain better mental performance. However, considering that the sham stimulation also induced similar improvements in cognitive abilities, future studies should clearly determine the cognitive measures that could benefit from NF training.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {2045-2322}, orcid-numbers = {Horváth, Dávid/0000-0002-9390-234X; Négyesi, János/0000-0001-5055-3242; Rácz, Melinda/0000-0002-6166-7699} } @article{MTMT:34134654, title = {An Acute Transition from Rearfoot to Forefoot Strike does not Induce Major Changes in Plantarflexor Muscles Activation for Habitual Rearfoot Strike Runners}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34134654}, author = {Kovács, Bálint and Petridis, Leonidas and Négyesi, János and Sebestyén, Örs and Jingyi, Ye and Zhang, Jingfeng and Gu, Yaodong and Tihanyi, József}, doi = {10.52082/jssm.2023.512}, journal-iso = {J SPORT SCI MED}, journal = {JOURNAL OF SPORTS SCIENCE AND MEDICINE}, volume = {22}, unique-id = {34134654}, issn = {1303-2968}, abstract = {Footstrike pattern has received increased attention within the running community because there is a common belief that forefoot strike running (FFS) is more advantageous (i.e., improve performance and reduce running injuries) than rearfoot strike running (RFS) in distance running. Literature reports suggest greater knee joint flexion magnitude and initial knee angle during stance in FFS compared with RFS running We examined the EMG activation of the triceps surae muscles during an acute transition from RFS to FFS strike. We tested the hypothesis that due to larger knee flexion in FFS the gastrocnemius muscles possibly decrease their EMG activity because muscle fascicles operate under unfavorable conditions. Fourteen competitive healthy middle- and long-distance runners who were habitual RFS runners ran on a treadmill at three speeds: 12, 14, and 16 km·h-1. Each running speed was performed with both FFS and RFS patterns. Lower limb kinematics in the sagittal plane and normalized electromyography (EMG) activity of medial gastrocnemius proximal, middle and distal regions, lateral gastrocnemius and soleus muscles were compared between footstrike patterns and running speeds across the stride cycle. Contrary to our expectations, the knee joint range of motion was similar in FFS and RFS running. However, the sagittal plane ankle joint motion was greater (p < 0.01) while running with FFS, resulting in a significantly greater muscle-tendon unit lengthening (p < 0.01) in FFS compared with RFS running. In addition, medial and lateral gastrocnemius showed higher EMG activity in FFS compared with RFS running in the late swing and early stance but only for a small percentage of the stride cycle. However, strike patterns and running speed failed to induce region-specific activation differences within the medial gastrocnemius muscle. Overall, well-trained RFS runners are able to change to FFS running by altering only the ankle joint kinematics without remarkably changing the EMG activity pattern.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1303-2968}, pages = {512-525}, orcid-numbers = {Négyesi, János/0000-0001-5055-3242; Sebestyén, Örs/0000-0002-5220-5708} } @{MTMT:34070398, title = {A study on the effect of color vision stimulation by colored glasses lenses on motor control ability}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34070398}, author = {ZHANG, W. and Négyesi, János and TAKADA, H. and NAGATOMI, R.}, booktitle = {Book of Abstracts of the 28th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science}, unique-id = {34070398}, year = {2023}, pages = {456-457}, orcid-numbers = {Négyesi, János/0000-0001-5055-3242} } @{MTMT:34070364, title = {Despite left-hemisphere specialization in more complex finger-tapping tasks, handedness does not affect motor skill acquisitin and its interlimb transfer}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34070364}, author = {Négyesi, János}, booktitle = {Book of Abstracts of the 28th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science}, unique-id = {34070364}, year = {2023}, pages = {203-203}, orcid-numbers = {Négyesi, János/0000-0001-5055-3242} } @{MTMT:34053369, title = {Differences between time-motion characteristics and serving velocity in winning and losing matches of elite male tennis players - A pilot study}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34053369}, author = {Tóth, Péter János and HORVÁTH, D. and Dobos, Károly and Győri, Tamás and Négyesi, János and Ökrös, Csaba}, booktitle = {Book of Abstracts of the 28th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science}, unique-id = {34053369}, year = {2023}, pages = {600-600}, orcid-numbers = {Tóth, Péter János/0000-0002-3276-3606; Négyesi, János/0000-0001-5055-3242} } @article{MTMT:33750343, title = {Compensatory muscle activation and spinal curve changes in response to fatigue among adolescent male athletes}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33750343}, author = {Gál-Pottyondy, Anna and Petró, Bálint and Takács, Mária and Négyesi, János and Nagatomi, Ryoichi and Kiss, Rita}, doi = {10.1186/s13102-023-00668-6}, journal-iso = {BMC SPORTS SCI MED REHAB}, journal = {BMC SPORTS SCIENCE MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION}, volume = {15}, unique-id = {33750343}, issn = {2052-1847}, abstract = {The prone plank test has been often used to assess the strength and endurance of trunk muscles.

We hypothesized that left-and right-handed partic-ipants may have different interlimb transfer efficiency depending on the task complexity. Methods: Left-hand (n = 28) and right-hand (n = 28) dominant participants (age = 24.70 +/- 4.02 years, male: female = 28:28) performed a finger sequence test with two levels of complexity (simple: one-digit with four fingers vs. complex: two-digit with five fingers) before and after ten trials of 2-min practice each on the same apparatus. The speed and task errors were measured and analyzed. Results: Right-handed participants failed to improve performance on their right hand (non-trained hand) after contralateral left-hand practice in the simple finger sequence task. In contrast, the left-handed participants improved performance on non-trained hands both right and left after contralateral practices. In the complex task, however, both the left-and right-handed participants improved performance on non-trained hands by contra -lateral practices. Conclusion: Our results showed that task complexity of skilled practice gave different effects on interlimb transfer between right-and left-handed subjects. It appears that a certain level of appropriate complexity is necessary to detect inter-limb transfers in motor learning in right-handed subjects.}, keywords = {HANDEDNESS; task complexity; Motor skill acquisition; Side -dominance; Cross -education}, year = {2022}, eissn = {1872-7972}, orcid-numbers = {Wang, YiFan/0000-0003-3538-3999; Inada, Hitoshi/0000-0002-6121-3830; Négyesi, János/0000-0001-5055-3242; Nagatomi, Ryoichi/0000-0003-3038-7202} }
