Background/objectives: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder that presents significant challenges for care home residents and staff. This scoping review aimed to synthesize evidence on PD education and training available to care home staff, examine existing programs and their effectiveness, and identify gaps in current educational approaches.
Methods: A scoping review (ScR) was conducted and guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis extension for ScR (PRISMA-ScR) checklist.

Triple-negative breast cancers are histopathologically diverse, with the majority classified as invasive breast carcinomas of no special type with a basal-like profile. Triple-negative breast cancer is the most aggressive molecular subtype of invasive breast carcinoma, with the highest rates of stage-matched mortality and regional recurrence.
