Sustainable development aspires to "leave no one behind". Even so, limited attention has been paid to small-scale fisheries (SSF) and their importance in eradicating poverty, hunger and malnutrition. Through a collaborative and multidimensional data-driven approach, we have estimated that SSF provide at least 40% (37.

Many small-scale fisheries (SSFs) in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) operate in ecologically sensitive areas, where balancing conservation and resource use is challenging. 'Multiple-use' marine protected areas (MPAs) have been implemented to accommodate SSFs (among other uses) within areas designated for conservation, creating opportunities and challenges for SSF governance. We analyzed eleven case studies from LAC to explore: (1) how different MPA institutional designs affect key aspects of SSF governance and (2) the links between these effects and the type of initiative that promoted MPA establishment (origin).

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers have rediscovered a previously forgotten phenotype of Alzheimer's disease (AD) called presbyophrenia, now referred to as the confabulation-misidentification phenotype.
  • This phenotype is characterized by symptoms similar to Korsakoff syndrome, including severe memory loss, disorientation, confabulation, and additional cognitive impairments.
  • The article summarizes findings about this phenotype and highlights areas that require further investigation to confirm its status as a variant of Alzheimer's disease.

Objectives: Undifferentiated connective tissue diseases (UCTDs) are systemic autoimmune conditions that cannot be diagnosed nor classified as defined CTD; the majority maintains an undifferentiated profile (stable UCTD, sUCTD) over time. Data on long-term outcomes of sUCTD are lacking.

Methods: Retrospective longitudinal analysis of an inception cohort of 141 patients with sUCTD.
