The Efficacy of Prospective Memory and Metacognitive Skills Training in Improving the Cognitive Skills and the Quality of Life of Elderly Persons With Dementia.

Introduction Elderly people may experience a deterioration in cognitive function as part of natural aging, which impacts their ability to function independently. Dementia is often experienced by the elderly; their cognitive and memory deficits can limit independence and productivity. Metacognitive skills training can facilitate self-awareness and strategy use and may improve cognitive skills.

[Isolated pancreatic injury after blunt abdominal trauma: severe pathology in initially asymptomatic patient].

Background: Isolated pancreatic injury after blunt abdominal trauma is rare but unreliably excludable based on clinical symptoms. A CT-abdomen is the golden standard in diagnosing. Undiagnosed pancreatic injury can result in severe complications as abscesses and fistulas.

Anticandidal effect of cinnamic acid characterized from Cinnamomum cassia bark against the fluconazole resistant strains of Candida.

Candida spp., causes invasive fungal infections, especially in immune-compromised patients and the propensity of antifungal resistance against azole-based drugs need to be addressed. This study is thus aimed to characterize the anticandidal effect of the cinnamic acid extracted from the barks of Cinnamomum cassia.

Unleashing light's healing power: an overview of photobiomodulation for Alzheimer's treatment.

Photobiomodulation involves the use of low-level light therapy or near-infrared light therapy found to be useful in the treatment of a wide range of neurological diseases. The aim is to review the mechanism and clinical applications of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) in managing Alzheimer's disease. To ensure that the consensus statement accurately reflects both the experts' viewpoint and the most recent developments in the field, the expert opinions were recorded and thoroughly reviewed.

and pharmacokinetic assessment of echinocystic acid effectiveness in Alzheimer's disease like pathology.

Alzheimer's disease causes dementia which impairs the cognitive domains. The pharmacokinetic characteristics and biological activity of echinocystic acid are predicted in this work using or computational approaches, including pkCSM, Swiss ADME, OSIRIS property explorer, PASS online web resource and MOLINSPIRATION software. The compound has lipid metabolism regulating property as major role in decreasing the progression of Alzheimer's disease and it has no major side effects and ADR.
