How to Encourage the Public to Help People With Dementia in the Community: A Scoping Review.
J Adv Nurs
December 2024
School of Nursing, Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, People's Republic of China.
Background: In a response to the lack of public awareness of dementia, 'ageing in place' and 'dementia-friendly community' policies have been proposed, and a number of relevant studies have been carried out.
Aim: To map the evidence of public help for people with dementia in the community.
Design: A scoping review.
Hidden in plain sight: Women and gendered dementia dynamics in the Australian Aged Care Royal Commission.
J Aging Stud
December 2024
Faculty of Law, University of Technology Sydney, Broadway, NSW, Australia. Electronic address:
Dementia is known to unequally affect women, whether as women living with dementia, or women who provide unwaged or paid care, yet dementia and long-term care ('LTC') research and policy often ignore gender. Using Australia as a case study and building on critical dementia, critical disability, and feminist scholarship, this discourse analysis study explored representations in the Australian Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety ('ACRC') Final Report of experiences of women with dementia, and women care partners of people with dementia, using long-term care. This paper argues gender remained an overlooked topic in relation to dementia in the ACRC Final Report.

JAMA Health Forum
October 2024
Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia.
Importance: In 2021, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services designated a new category of dual-eligible special needs plans (D-SNPs) with exclusively aligned enrollment (receive Medicare and Medicaid benefits through the same plan or affiliated plans within the same organization).
Objective: To assess the availability of and enrollment in D-SNPs with exclusively aligned enrollment and to compare the characteristics of beneficiaries enrolled in D-SNPs with exclusively aligned enrollment available vs beneficiaries without such enrollment available.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Full-benefit beneficiaries enrolled in D-SNPs for 6 months or longer in 2021 or 2022.
Genomic analysis of intracranial and subcortical brain volumes yields polygenic scores accounting for variation across ancestries.
medRxiv
August 2024
Brain & Mental Health Program, QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute, Brisbane, QLD, 4006, Australia.
Article Synopsis
- Subcortical brain structures play a crucial role in various disorders, and a study analyzed the genetic basis of brain volumes in nearly 75,000 individuals of European ancestry, revealing 254 loci linked to these volumes.
- The research identified significant gene expression in neural cells, relating to brain aging and signaling, and found that polygenic scores could predict brain volumes across different ancestries.
- The study highlights genetic connections between brain volumes and conditions like Parkinson's disease and ADHD, suggesting specific gene expression patterns could be involved in neuropsychiatric disorders.
Intranasal Delivery of Pure Nanodrug Loaded Liposomes for Alzheimer's Disease Treatment by Efficiently Regulating Microglial Polarization.

December 2024
School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Zhengzhou University, 100 Kexue Avenue, Zhengzhou, 450001, P. R. China.
The activated M1-like microglia induced neuroinflammation is the critical pathogenic event in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Microglial polarization from pro-inflammatory M1 toward anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype is a promising strategy. To efficiently accomplish this, amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregates as the culprit of M1 microglia activation should be uprooted.
