Soft tissue tumors with smooth muscle differentiation are rare in pediatric patients. Despite often showing morphologic features sufficient for classification as "leiomyosarcoma" in adults (e.g.

In contrast, natural hydrogels form through mechanisms involving both covalent assembly and supramolecular interactions. In this communication, we expand the capabilities of covalent poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) networks through co-assembly of supramolecular peptide nanofibers.

AGB101 is an extended-release formulation of levetiracetam in the dose range previously demonstrated to normalize hippocampal activity and improve cognitive performance in aMCI. The HOPE4MCI study was a 78-week trial to assess the progression of MCI due to AD.

This study investigated cross-sectional associations of actigraphic estimates of physical activity and sleep with cognition and diffusion imaging-based measures of medial temporal lobe (MTL) gray matter microstructural integrity in adults free of dementia. Participants were 132 older adults from the Biomarkers of Cognitive Decline Among Normal Individuals (BIOCARD) cohort study (119 cognitively unimpaired and 13 with mild cognitive impairment; mean age=70.
