Purpose Of Review: To summarize current evidence regarding the indication of adjuvant treatment after transoral laser microsurgery (TOLMS).
Recent Findings: Apart from well known risk factors, margins represent the key point in the decision-making. If margins are affected, additional treatment is mandatory.
Background: Neuromodulatory subcortical systems (NSS) are affected from the early stages of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) by the accumulation of tau pathology. Increased tau burden within the subcortical nucleus that are in control of sleep and wake regulation may contribute to the breakdown of sleep-wake patterns in AD. A recent postmortem study showed that subcortical wake-promoting neurons were related to sleep phenotypes in AD and PSP, being that greater neuronal count in locus coeruleus (LC), tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN), and lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) associated with a decreased sleep drive (Oh et al.

Background: Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD)- TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP) type C is commonly associated with a clinical diagnosis of semantic dementia (SD). Although anterior temporal lobe (ATL) is one of the primary atrophy centers, it is yet to be defined which other areas are involved in the TDP-type C pathology early in the disease course.
Methods: We included 16 patients with autopsy-confirmed FTLD-TDP type C from the database of the UCSF Memory and Aging Center: 13 patients with semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) and predominant left ATL atrophy, and 3 patients with semantic behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (sbvFTD) and predominant right ATL atrophy.

Background: Longitudinal population-based studies have consistently revealed an expedited cognitive decline in the elderly population with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Additionally, there is a documented increased risk of developing vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease in individuals with DM2. Conversely, recent research has pointed to metformin (MET), a widely prescribed medication for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), potentially mitigating age-related cognitive dysfunction (Madhu et al.

Objectives: The primary repair of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has re-emerged as a treatment for acute ruptures. While numerous studies have investigated rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction, few have focused on primary repair. We aimed to describe the rehabilitation protocols for primary ACL repair, and to identify knowledge gaps and differences between primary ACL repair and reconstruction.
