  • A study focused on adolescents and young adults (AYA) with cancer found that they have specific end-of-life care needs that differ from older patients, emphasizing the importance of individualized care.
  • Researchers analyzed medical records of 81 AYA patients aged 16-39 who received home palliative care and compared them to over 5,000 older patients, finding that AYA patients had a median home care duration of 28.5 days, shorter than the 40 days for older patients.

The alpha rhythm in human electroencephalography (EEG) is known to decrease in frequency with age. Previous study has shown that elderly individuals with dementia exhibit higher S values (spatial variability) and SD values (temporal variability) in the triple correlation of the occipital region (P3, P4, Oz) compared to healthy elderly individuals. The objective of this research is to examine changes in S and SD values of the alpha band with aging in healthy individuals using triple correlation values from the frontal region.
