Sources of HIV information and women's HIV knowledge in Southwest Sumba Indonesia: a cross-sectional study with mediation analysis.

BMC Public Health

January 2025

Public Policy, Management, and Analytics, College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL, 60607, USA.

Background: Despite multiple years of government HIV educational efforts, the growing trend of new cases among women in Indonesia runs parallel with their seemingly overall lack of comprehensive knowledge about HIV. A major prevention challenge for the Indonesian government lies in delivering HIV prevention education across the world's largest archipelago. This study investigates comprehensive HIV knowledge among reproductive-age women in Southwest Sumba, Indonesia, and the sources through which they report having learned about HIV along with potential mediators of the relationship between socioeconomic status (SES) and HIV knowledge.

The Utility of Preoperative Phenylephrine Testing in Müller Muscle Conjunctival Resection Surgery for Involutional Ptosis.

Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg

January 2025

Division of Orbital and Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery, Jules Stein Eye Institute, University of California, Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.

Purpose: Phenylephrine testing prior to Müller muscle conjunctival resection has traditionally been used to predict postoperative outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine if preoperative phenylephrine testing impacts postoperative changes in eyelid position.

Methods: In this multicenter cross-sectional cohort study, 270 eyelids of participants with involutional ptosis and levator function >12 mm who underwent Müller muscle conjunctival resection were divided into 2 comparison groups.

Background: A recent study of familial Alzheimer's disease identified a mutation in the RELN gene that appeared to delay the onset of dementia. It was hypothesized that this RELN-COLBOS variant protected against dementia by enhanced signaling at reelin receptors. We previously developed a secreted, bio-active reelin fragment (R36) and packaged it into AAV.

Basic Science and Pathogenesis.

Alzheimers Dement

December 2024

University of California San Diego, La Jolla, CA, USA.

Background: Our data from several clinical trials of individuals with asymptomatic AD demonstrates that plasma Aβ42/40 quantification by mass spectrometry can serve as a reliable biomarker for predicting elevated brain amyloid as detected by PET. We investigated how adding plasma p-tau measures to our plasma Aβ42/40 algorithm to streamline identification of eligible participants and reduce burden and trial cost. To determine if the addition of plasma p-tau181 and/or p-tau217 concentrations can improve plasma Aβ42/40 algorithms to correctly identify participants with amyloid burden of >20 centiloids with the NAV4694 tracer among individuals screening for participation in the AHEAD preclinical AD trial.
