Clinical Manifestations.

Background: Automated speech and language analysis (ASLA) represents a powerful innovation for detecting and monitoring persons with or at risk for dementia. Given its cost-efficiency and automaticity, its impact can be vital for under-resourced communities, such Spanish-speaking Latinos. However, ASLA markers are understudied in this group and may differ from those established in widely studied populations (e.

Release of Bisphenol A and Other Volatile Chemicals from New Epoxy Drinking Water Pipe Liners: The Role of Manufacturing Conditions.

Cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP) technology has begun to be adopted for drinking water pipe repairs, and limited information exists about its drinking water quality impacts. CIPP involves the manufacture of a new plastic pipe inside a buried damaged pipe. In this study, the chemical composition of the raw materials and CIPP water quality impacts were examined.

In vitro assessment of horse-isolated strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Ligilactobacillus equi species for fecal microbiota modulation in horses.

Horses are hindgut fermenters that harbor a complex intestinal microbiota (IM) which provides key enzymes aiding in the breakdown of complex carbohydrates present in their herbivorous diet. Therefore, these animals are deeply dependent on their IM for digestion and nutrition. Consequently, IM imbalances may result in alteration of fermentation patterns with impact on the animal health and the risk of disease.

A lung cancer diagnosis and treatment dataset with geno- and phenotypical characteristics of the patient.

This dataset comprises information about 1242 lung cancer patients collected by the Medical Oncology Department of the Puerta de Hierro University Hospital of Majadahonda in Madrid, Spain. It includes information about cancer diagnosis and treatment, as well as personal and medical data recorded during anamneses. The dataset could assist in data analysis with the aim of discovering relationships between the applied treatment(s), the evolution of the disease and the associated adverse effects.

Structural inequality linked to brain volume and network dynamics in aging and dementia across the Americas.

Structural inequality, the uneven distribution of resources and opportunities, influences health outcomes. However, the biological embedding of structural inequality in aging and dementia, especially among underrepresented populations, is unclear. We examined the association between structural inequality (country-level and state-level Gini indices) and brain volume and connectivity in 2,135 healthy controls, and individuals with Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal lobe degeneration from Latin America and the United States.
