The current study was conducted on 60 Israeli female inmates. Our aim was to examine the differences among women convicted for drug, violence, and fraud offenses by socio-demographic variables and self-control and aggression levels. Results revealed that the drug group was characterized by measures attributed to chronic delinquency, and the fraud group was found to fit the pathway to low crime. At the same time, the violence group was not characterized by any of these patterns. The findings were discussed in relation to their theoretical contribution and applicability.

Preclinical Alzheimer's prevention trials require a multi-year commitment from diverse, cognitively unimpaired individuals willing to receive biomarker results of confirmed Alzheimer's pathology and possible ApoE4 status. Participants learn new terms such as ARIA, edema and microhemorrhage and undergo numerous MRI scans for safety monitoring. They take quarterly composite Alzheimer's assessments that are anxiety-provoking and highlight weaknesses which may have been unrecognized in daily life.

SORL1 encodes an endosomal trafficking receptor, SORLA, which regulates endosomal protein recycling through its interaction with the retromer core complex (consisting of VPS26, VPS35 and VPS29). Deficits in the levels and function of the SORLA-retromer complex are thought to underlie AD.

Background: Recruiting and retaining older adults for clinical trials is challenging, especially in low-resource settings. Such challenges led to a systematic exclusion of such participants from clinical trials, compromising the generalizability of the results obtained in high income countries.
Objective: Here we describe the strategies we used in the PROAME study for recruiting and retaining illiterate older adults from low socioeconomical levels in a non-pharmacological trial.
Background: It is essential that both drug and lifestyle-based interventions aimed at delaying the functional decline in conditions like Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs) capture change in functioning that incorporates the person's voice. Such brain health priorities can vary across populations and it is unclear to what degree findings from the ePSOM program in the UK might apply to the US.
Methods: We conducted an online nationwide study to understand what matters to people aged 50 and older about their brain health in the US.
Lecanemab, a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to amyloid-beta (Aβ) protofibrils, was formally evaluated as a treatment for early Alzheimer's disease in a phase 2 study (Study 201) and the phase 3 Clarity AD study. These trials both included an 18-month, randomized study (core) and an open-label extension (OLE) phase where eligible participants received open-label lecanemab for up to 30 months to date. Clinical (CDR-SB, ADAS-Cog14, and ADCS-MCI-ADL), biomarker (PET, Aβ42/40 ratio, and ptau181) and safety outcomes were evaluated.
