Quality, topics, and demographic trends of animal systematic reviews - an umbrella review.

Background: Animal systematic reviews are critical to inform translational research. Despite their growing popularity, there is a notable lack of information on their quality, scope, and geographical distribution over time. Addressing this gap is important to maintain their effectiveness in fostering medical advancements.

Education Research: The Neurohumanities in Training: Integrating a Humanities Curriculum Within Neurology Residency Programs.

Background And Objectives: Perhaps stemming from the central role of detailed examinations and a focus on the subjective sphere that grounds their clinical practice, neurologists have frequently opined on experiences traditionally a province of humanities. The increasingly technological focus on medical education and care can be seen to devalue the subjective aspects of medicine. As a counter to this, we report on the existence of neurohumanities curricula within neurology residency training.

Real-life reliability of plasma pTau181, Aβ/Aβ, and pTau181/Aβ measured by Lumipulse G600II in predicting cerebrospinal fluid amyloid status.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative dementia, with diagnosis traditionally reliant on clinical criteria. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers like pTau181 and Aβ/Aβ ratio significantly improve diagnostic accuracy but are invasive. Plasma biomarkers measured by automated assays offer a non-invasive alternative.

STEED: A data mining tool for automated extraction of experimental parameters and risk of bias items from in vivo publications.

Background And Methods: Systematic reviews, i.e., research summaries that address focused questions in a structured and reproducible manner, are a cornerstone of evidence-based medicine and research.

Prepared, Protected, EmPowered (P3): Primary Results of a Randomized Controlled Trial Using a Social Networking, Gamification, and Coaching App to Promote Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Adherence for Sexual and Gender Minority (SGM) Youth Living in the United States.

The population-level reductions in HIV incidence attributed to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) have not been fully realized among sexual, gender, and racial/ethnic minority youth. P3 (Prepared, Protected, emPowered) is a comprehensive mobile application (app) intervention developed to support PrEP adherence through gamification, medication tracking, and social engagement. A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 246 young men who have sex with men (YMSM) and young transgender women who have sex with men (YTWMSM) currently on or planning to begin PrEP.
