Background And Objectives: Apraxia is a frequently observed symptom in Alzheimer disease (AD), but the causal pathomechanism underlying this dysfunction is not well understood. Previous studies have demonstrated associations between various cognitive dysfunctions in AD and cortical tau deposition in specific brain areas, suggesting a causal relationship. Thus, we hypothesized that specific regional patterns of tau pathology in praxis-related brain regions may be associated with apraxic deficits in AD.

The genetic toolkit for amphibians, however, remains limited. Recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors (AAVs) are a powerful alternative to transgenesis for labeling and manipulating neurons.

Objectives: This study aims to provide a current and comprehensive analysis of the incidence of delayed intracerebral hemorrhage (dICH) in head trauma patients on oral anticoagulants (ACs) and to evaluate various potential risk factors.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses and Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology guidelines. PubMed and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched for studies on dICH in anticoagulated head trauma patients undergoing repeat computed tomography scans.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) that is resistant to androgen receptor signaling inhibitors, which is often lethal, and aims to investigate liquid biopsy biomarkers related to this disease.
- Researchers analyzed cell-free DNA and methylation from 126 mCRPC patients and developed a "stem-like" signature through RNA sequencing from both single cells and bulk samples.
- Findings indicated that specific alterations in cell-free DNA correlated with poorer patient outcomes, and an increase in stemness-associated traits in lethal mCRPC patients suggests a reprogramming mechanism that contributes to the aggressiveness of the cancer.
