Introduction: Mental health problems are the most significant cause of disability and have high annual economic costs; hence, they are a priority for the government, service providers and policymakers. Consisting of largely coastal and rural communities, the populations of Norfolk and Suffolk, UK, have elevated burdens of mental health problems, areas with high levels of deprivation and an increasing migrant population. However, these communities are underserved by research and areas with the greatest mental health needs are not represented or engaged in research.

Background: Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) have been shown to be associated with frailty, but these findings have not yet reached a consensus. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between CRDs and frailty in the elderly using a nationally representative data from China.
Methods: Data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) were analysed, including 3309 frailty-free participants followed for three waves from 2011.
Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder with few therapies to treat, mitigate or prevent its onset. Understanding of this disease is predominantly based on research in non-Hispanic Whites (NHW) although AD disproportionately affects African Americans (AA) and Latin Americans (LA), underrepresented in AD research. To address this knowledge gap, the Accelerating Medicine Partnership for Alzheimer's Disease (AMP-AD) Diversity Working Group was launched to generate multi-omics data from post-mortem brain tissue from donors of predominantly AA and LA descent.

ARIA-E/H (amyloid-related imaging abnormalities-Edema/Hemorrhage) is an umbrella term that defines the radiographic appearance of MRI images abnormality during treatments with Aβ-lowering monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for Alzheimer's disease immunotherapy. Today, it is well-recognized that ARIA-E events can also occur spontaneously in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-ri), a rare autoimmune encephalopathy associated with raised cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of spontaneous auto-antibodies against Aβ (aAbs). In this framework, the last years of research and experience of the iCAB international Network generated an increased consensus that therapy-induced ARIA is the iatrogenic manifestation of CAA-ri.
