Article Synopsis
- - The study evaluated the accuracy of serological tests for diagnosing COVID-19, focusing on how sensitivity and specificity change over time after symptom onset, using data from 39 publications with over 11,500 samples.
- - By Day 21, the IgM test showed a sensitivity of 87.2% and specificity of 97.3%, while the IgG test had a sensitivity of 91.3% and specificity of 96.0%, indicating that these tests are more reliable after two weeks of infection.
- - The findings suggest that while serological tests can help determine past infections, their limitations in early diagnosis must be considered when assessing population seroprevalence during outbreaks.
Objective: We previously reported alterations in circadian patterns of food intake that are associated with measures of functional and cognitive deterioration in seniors with probable Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study further explored disturbed eating patterns in AD, focusing on alterations in macronutrient (protein, carbohydrate, and fat) selection, and their association with measures of functional and behavioral losses.
Methods: Forty-nine days of food intake collections were conducted on 32 residents (26 females, 6 males; age = 88.
