Objectives: This integrative review sought to identify studies that describe individual prodromal myocardial infarction (MI) symptoms and clusters of prodromal symptoms in women and to critically examine this body of evidence.
Background: Studies have suggested that women may experience warning symptoms months prior to MI.
Methods: A comprehensive database search was conducted using multiple search terms in various combinations. A structured literature audit was then conducted.
Results: 12 studies were included in the final review, including 10 peer-reviewed journal articles and 2 doctoral dissertations. The review suggests that prodromal myocardial infarction symptoms are prevalent in almost all women prior to MI. The most common prodromal symptom appears to be fatigue, though other symptoms are also prevalent. Further, prodromal symptoms may be useful at predicting myocardial infarction.
Conclusions: Though prodromal MI symptoms experienced by women are prevalent, additional study is required in a larger population of diverse women to fully characterize prodromal MI symptoms in women.

Patients with mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (ADMCI) typically show abnormally high delta (<4 Hz) and low alpha (8-12 Hz) rhythms measured from resting-state eyes-closed electroencephalographic (rsEEG) activity. Here, we hypothesized that the abnormalities in rsEEG activity may be greater in ADMCI patients than in those with MCI not due to AD (noADMCI). Furthermore, they may be associated with the diagnostic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) amyloid-tau biomarkers in ADMCI patients.

Schizophrenia (SZ), a complex psychiatric disorder of neurodevelopment, is characterised by a range of symptoms, including hallucinations, delusions, social isolation and cognitive deterioration. One of the hypotheses that underlie SZ is related to inflammatory events which could be partly responsible for symptoms. However, it is unknown how inflammatory molecules can contribute to cognitive decline in SZ.

Background And Hypothesis: Improvements in screening tools for early subthreshold psychosis symptoms are needed to facilitate early identification and intervention efforts, especially given the challenges of rapidly differentiating age-appropriate experiences from potential early signs of emerging psychosis. Tools can be lengthy and time-consuming, impacting their utility and accessibility across clinical settings, and age-normed data are limited. To address this gap, we sought to develop and validate a brief, empirically derived, age-normed, subthreshold psychosis screening tool, for public use.

Individuals in the prodromal phase of Parkinson's disease (PD) exhibit significant heterogeneity and can be divided into distinct subtypes based on clinical symptoms, pathological mechanisms, and brain network patterns. However, little has been done regarding the valid subtyping of prodromal PD, which hinders the early diagnosis of PD. Therefore, we aimed to identify the subtypes of prodromal PD using the brain radiomics-based network and examine the unique patterns linked to the clinical presentations of each subtype.
