Lung Cancer Screening in the Incarcerated Population Through a Community Imaging Partnership.

Limited data exist on cancer screening in carceral facilities. This study evaluates the feasibility and outcomes of a population-based lung cancer screening initiative in a carceral setting. This is a retrospective review of a lung cancer screening event at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections.

Rhythmic auditory cueing in atypical parkinsonism: A pilot study.

Rhythmic auditory cueing (RAC) can improve gait parameters in neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease and stroke. However, there is a lack of research on the effects of RAC in patients with atypical parkinsonian disorders (APD). Using a smartphone metronome application, we aimed to investigate the immediate effects of RAC in patients with clinically diagnosed APD, namely Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP-Richardson Syndrome and other variants, PSP-nonRS), Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), and Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB).

The gut microbiome regulates the increases in depressive-type behaviors and in inflammatory processes in the ventral hippocampus of stress vulnerable rats.

Chronic exposure to stress is associated with increased incidence of depression, generalized anxiety, and PTSD. However, stress induces vulnerability to such disorders only in a sub-population of individuals, as others remain resilient. Inflammation has emerged as a putative mechanism for promoting stress vulnerability.
