Dementia Care Research and Psychosocial Factors.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects over 55 million people worldwide and is characterized by abnormal deposition of amyloid-β and tau in the brain causing neuronal damage and disrupting transmission within brain circuits. Episodic memory loss, executive deficits, and depression are common symptoms arising from altered function in spatially distinct brain circuits that greatly contribute to disability. Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) can target these circuits and has shown promise to relieve specific symptoms.

Predicting Blood Loss in Aneurysmal Bone Cyst Surgery.

Background: Preoperative estimation of intraoperative blood loss is essential for its management and literature is lacking with respect to factors influencing blood loss in aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC) surgery. The purpose of this study is to identify risk factors and predictors for blood loss in ABC surgery.

Methods: An IRB-approved retrospective review was performed from 2011 to 2021 at a pediatric tertiary care center.

From light sensing to adaptive learning: hafnium diselenide reconfigurable memcapacitive devices in neuromorphic computing.

Advancements in neuromorphic computing have given an impetus to the development of systems with adaptive behavior, dynamic responses, and energy efficiency characteristics. Although charge-based or emerging memory technologies such as memristors have been developed to emulate synaptic plasticity, replicating the key functionality of neurons-integrating diverse presynaptic inputs to fire electrical impulses-has remained challenging. In this study, we developed reconfigurable metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors (MOSCaps) based on hafnium diselenide (HfSe).

Incidence, Clinicopathological Features, and Outcomes of Signet Ring Colorectal Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study.

Background Signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) is a rare subtype of colorectal cancer with significant variations in clinical characteristics and poor prognosis. However, there is limited data available in Pakistan. Therefore, we analyzed to examine the incidence, clinicopathological features, treatments, and outcomes of SRCC in colorectal cancer cases in Pakistan.

The measurement and insight of bacterial community structure succession in cyanobacteria biochar co-composting based on basic carbon and nitrogen indices.

The effects of cyanobacteria biochar (CB) amendment on microbial community succession (MCS) during pig manure co-composting was evaluated. Conventional composting (T1) and different concentrations of CB co-composting were set up here (T2: 2.5% CB, T3: 5% CB, T4: 7.
