Hyperphosphorylated tau is responsible for the NFTs formation and further neurodegeneration in AD. The hippocampal region and the entorhinal cortex (EC) have been a major focus of AD research because the deposits of hyperphosphorylated tau protein and NFT in these regions are correlated with memory deficits.

Objective: To explore the influencing factors of prognosis in patients with sepsis-induced acute kidney injury undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), and to construct a mortality risk prediction model.

Methods: A retrospective research method was adopted, patients with sepsis-induced acute kidney injury who received CRRT at Fuyang People's Hospital from February 2021 to September 2023 were included in this study. Collect general information, comorbidities, vital signs, laboratory indicators, disease severity scores, treatment status, length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU), and 28-day prognosis were collected within 24 hours of patient enrollment.

Introduction: Sarcopenia, with its complex diagnostic process, is a likely independent predictor of poor prognosis in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, research on the clinical characteristics and biomarkers of AD patients with sarcopenia (ADSA) is limited.

Methods: This study included 180 ADSA and 188 AD patients without sarcopenia (ADNSA), and evaluated demographics, cognitive function, motor capacity, emotional state, and daily living abilities.
