Unlabelled: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia are preventable and highly prevalent diseases, as is systemic arterial hypertension. Thus, it is speculated that angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) may be neuroprotective against AD.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate if the use of ARBs confers a neuroprotective effect on AD, through a systematic review.
Background: Stroke is one of the main causes of mortality worldwide. Nonetheless, there are still risk factors that have not been fully elucidated, such as chronic insomnia disorder.
Objective: To evaluate the association between chronic insomnia disorder and the risk of stroke in adults, through a systematic review.
FOXP2 is altered in a variety of language disorders. We found reduced mRNA and protein expression of FOXP2 in frontal cortex area 8 in Pick's disease, and frontotemporal lobar degeneration-tau linked to P301L mutation presenting with language impairment in comparison with age-matched controls and cases with parkinsonian variant progressive supranuclear palsy. Foxp2 mRNA and protein are also reduced with disease progression in the somatosensory cortex in transgenic mice bearing the P301S mutation in MAPT when compared with wild-type littermates.

- Salmonella spp. can cause illnesses in poultry and public health issues, particularly when certain non-typhoid serovars are present.
- A study conducted in Southern Brazil identified 280 Salmonella strains from turkey and broiler carcasses, with Salmonella Enteritidis being the most common serovar.
- Antimicrobial resistance was noted, especially to bacitracin and penicillin, emphasizing the importance of careful antimicrobial use in animal farming due to potential food safety risks.
