Aim: Create an ECG-based model to predict dementia and compare its performance with the existing Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging, and Dementia (CAIDE) model.

Methods And Results: Participants without prevalent dementia in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study were studied. Visit 4 (V4) (1996-98, mean age, 62 years) and V5 (2011-13, mean age, 75 years) were used as baselines.

Article Synopsis
  • The study presents a new method using macroporous resin chromatography to efficiently enrich four active diterpenoid components from the buds of Wikstroemia chamaedaphne.
  • The D101 macroporous resin demonstrated the highest performance for the adsorption and purification of these bioactive compounds.
  • Analysis showed that the enriched diterpenoid extracts have effective properties for activating latent HIV, suggesting a potential for developing low-toxicity agents for clinical applications.

Objectives: Traditional methods for β-thalassemia screening usually rely on the structural integrity of hemoglobin (Hb), which can be affected by the hemolysis of red blood cells and Hb degradation. Here, we aim to develop a reliable and high throughput method for rapid detection of β-thalassemia using dried blood spots (DBS).

Methods: Hb components were extracted from a disc (3.
