Article Synopsis
  • Existing computerized cognitive tests (CCTs) often do not include speech recognition, which restricts their ability to evaluate language function; hence, CogMo was developed to incorporate automatic speech recognition for comprehensive cognitive assessment.
  • This study tested the validity and reliability of CogMo in differentiating cognitive impairments among 100 participants, revealing strong correlations between CogMo and the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores.
  • Results showed high reliability with an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.94, and CogMo proved effective in identifying cognitive impairments with a sensitivity of 90% and specificity of 82.9%.

We present a method that uses viscosity-lowering materials to fabricate flexible polydimethylsiloxane-based quantum dot (QD) films with high quantum yield (QY) and improved uniformity. We found that the aggregation of individual QDs was prevented, and the QY improved simultaneously in films that contained surfactants. These films showed an improved absorption of approximately 27% in the near-UV and blue light regions, along with an improved photoluminescence of approximately 18%, indicating improved light conversion from the UV to the visible frequency region.

Objective: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of 5% dextrose (D5W) in comparison to corticosteroids for treating carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Data Sources: A comprehensive systematic search was conducted across MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials on November 13, 2023. These were supplemented by manual searches using Google Scholar.

Background: The causes of peroneal neuropathy are various, but are rarely due to weight loss. Bilateral peroneal neuropathy caused by weight loss after surgery has been reported only after bariatric surgery and there were no reports associated with other abdominal surgery. In this report, we describe a case of the bilateral peroneal neuropathy that occurred due to marked weight loss after biliary surgery.

Purpose: This preliminary study aimed to compare the outcomes of an occupational therapist-led and a nurse-led computerized cognitive training (CCT) for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in older adults.

Design: A single-blind randomized controlled trial was performed.

Methods: Participants 65 years of age and older with MCI were randomly assigned to a group led by an occupational therapist or by a nurse.
