Clinical Manifestations.

Background: Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a common young-onset dementia. Challenges to in-person FTD evaluations (e.g.

Clinical Manifestations.

Background: Postoperative complications of major surgical interventions include delirium. Delirium is a risk factor for dementia, and in some cases, may signal underlying neuropathological processes. Cognitive tests that accurately predict post-operative outcomes could identify patients with cognitive vulnerabilities who may benefit from preoperative counseling and postoperative interventions.

Clinical Manifestations.

Background: The Uniform Data Set (UDS) neuropsychological battery, administered across Alzheimer's Disease Centers (ADC), includes memory tests but lacks a list-learning paradigm. ADCs often supplement the UDS with their own preferred list-learning task. Given the importance of list-learning for characterizing memory, we aimed to develop a harmonized memory score that incorporates UDS memory tests while allowing centers to contribute differing list-learning tasks.

Contributions of Hemolytic Proteins in Virulent Aeromonas hydrophila to Motile Aeromonas Septicemia Disease of Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus).

Hemolytic proteins are a major group of virulence factors in pathogenic Aeromonas hydrophila. Six genes encoding presumable hemolytic proteins were revealed from the genome of virulent A. hydrophila (vAh) that caused severe disease in channel catfish.

Intraoperative Burst Suppression by Analysis of Raw Electroencephalogram Postoperative Delirium in Older Adults Undergoing Spine Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: Postoperative delirium is a common complication in older adults, associated with poor outcomes, morbidity, mortality, and higher health care costs. Older age is a strong predictor of delirium. Intraoperative burst suppression on the electroencephalogram (EEG) has also been linked to postoperative delirium and poor neurocognitive outcomes.
