Cerebrospinal fluid β2-microglobulin promotes the tau pathology through microglia-astrocyte communication in Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimers Res Ther
January 2025
Department of Geriatrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, No.1 Youyi Road, Yuzhong District, Chongqing, 400016, China.
Background: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) β2-microglobulin (β2M) has been demonstrated as an important factor in β-amyloid (Aβ) neurotoxicity and a potential target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, more investigation is required to ascertain the relationship between β2M and glial activities in AD pathogenesis.
Methods: In this study, 211 participants from the Alzheimer's disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) with CSF and Plasma β2M, CSF glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (sTREM2), Aβ, phosphorylated-tau (P-tau) and total tau (T-tau) were divided into four groups, stage 0, 1, 2, and suspected non-AD pathology (SNAP) based on the National Institute on Aging- Alzheimer's Association (NIA-AA) criteria.
Forensic genetics in the shadows.

This article examines the controversial practice of law enforcement agencies searching genetic samples obtained in health care settings, without a warrant or consent. While police have previously used public genealogy databases for this purpose, our article describes how they are now secretly accessing genetic information from newborn screening programs and medical tests. This raises ethical and legal concerns, blurring the line between health care and law enforcement.

December 2024
US Value Evidence and Outcomes, GSK, Collegeville, PA, USA.
Introduction: The clinical benefits of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) have been demonstrated in clinical trials. There is limited evidence regarding the effectiveness and economic outcomes associated with FF/UMEC/VI use in US clinical practice. This real-world study assessed asthma-related exacerbations, healthcare resource utilization (HRU), and healthcare costs among a Medicare Advantage-insured population before and after initiation of FF/UMEC/VI in patients with asthma previously treated with an inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β-agonist (ICS/LABA).

GO2 Foundation for Lung Cancer, Washington DC, WA, USA.
Introduction: This research sought to identify trends in the patient with lung cancer (LC) care pathway, experiences, and needs, across geographies and healthcare settings.
Methods: Patients living with LC for more than 18 years in nine countries completed an online survey covering these domains-demographic, disease, treatment, and patient preferences for information and support services. Recruitment was primarily from patient with LC communities on online platforms.
Point-of-Care Ultrasound and Critical Care Ultrasound use Among Providers in Neurocritical Units: A National Survey.
Neurocrit Care
December 2024
Department of Neurology, Weill Cornell Medicine, New York, 520 East 70th Street Starr Pavilion, 607, NY, USA.
Background: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS)/critical care ultrasound (CCU) use in medical and surgical intensive care units has surged over the last few decades. It is unclear if this has similarly translated in neurocritical care (NCC) units. We designed a survey to describe the current state of POCUS/CCU use and training among NCC providers.
