Although research has already shown the importance of promoting well-being during pregnancy and after birth, previous meta-analyses on the effectiveness of psychological interventions do not include wellbeing as a primary outcome measure, focusing instead on assessing the effectiveness in reducing symptoms. This study aimed at conducting a systematic review of the effects of psychological interventions on well-being during the perinatal period. A search was conducted in Psycinfo, PubMed, Web of Science (WOS) and Scopus for articles published from 2014 to 2024.

Early-stage tau pathology, characterized by soluble phosphorylated tau, is difficult to study in human brains post-mortem due to rapid dephosphorylation. Rhesus macaques, which naturally develop age-related tau pathology resembling human AD, provide an ideal model for investigating early tau etiology.

In the wild-type, the CIP activators Rgf1 (Rho1 GEF) and Pck2 (PKC homologue) and the MEK kinase Mkh1 localize in the PM, internalize after osmotic shock and re-localize after adaptation.

However, there is a lack on studies investigating if DO exhibits higher cardiometabolic risk than non-dynapenic obesity. To assess if individuals with DO exhibit elevated cardiometabolic risk compared to non-dynapenic obesity.
