We aimed to categorize subjective memory impairment (SMI) individuals based on their patterns of cortical thickness and to propose simple models that can classify each subtype. We recruited 613 SMI individuals and 613 age- and gender-matched normal controls. Using hierarchical agglomerative cluster analysis, SMI individuals were divided into 3 subtypes: temporal atrophy (12.9%), minimal atrophy (52.4%), and diffuse atrophy (34.6%). Individuals in the temporal atrophy (Alzheimer's disease-like atrophy) subtype were older, had more vascular risk factors, and scored the lowest on neuropsychological tests. Combination of these factors classified the temporal atrophy subtype with 73.2% accuracy. On the other hand, individuals with the minimal atrophy (non-neurodegenerative) subtype were younger, were more likely to be female, and had depression. Combination of these factors discriminated the minimal atrophy subtype with 76.0% accuracy. We suggest that SMI can be largely categorized into 3 anatomical subtypes that have distinct clinical features. Our models may help physicians decide next steps when encountering SMI patients and may also be used in clinical trials.

Background: Osteoporosis and sarcopenia frequently occur in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis (HD), and depression is also a common mental health issue in this population. Despite the prevalence of these conditions, the interrelationships among them remain poorly understood in HD patients.
Methods: In this multicenter cross-sectional study, 858 HD patients from 7 dialysis centers were recruited.
Background: Among individuals with serious mental illness (SMI), victimisation has been found to increase the risk of engaging in other- and self-directed violence. However, rates of victimisation within this population have been found to vary by ethnic group and primary diagnosis.
Aims: This study primarily aimed to examine the relationship between victimisation and other- and self-directed violence among a sample of inpatients with SMI during the first 3 months of admission.

This critical review paper examines the health inequalities faced by individuals with Severe Mental Illness (SMI) in the United Kingdom; highlighting the disproportionate burden of physical health conditions such as respiratory disorders, cardiac illnesses, diabetes and stroke amongst this population. These conditions contribute to a significantly higher rate of premature mortality in individuals with SMI, with two-thirds of these deaths deemed preventable. Despite the National Health Service (NHS) acknowledging the need to address these health inequalities, the mortality gap between those with and without SMI continues to widen.

Skeletal muscle index (SMI), as an effective indicator of nutritional status, plays an important role in the prognosis of malignancy. However, the impact of skeletal muscle changes on tumor prognosis has not been systematically elaborated. We aimed to explore the value of skeletal muscle changes in the prognosis of distal cholangiocarcinoma (DCC) patients undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).

Eye tracking data are highly promising in revealing novel and valuable evidence on human behavior and decision making. Data descripted in this article were collected in fourteen experiments with SMI eye tracking glasses in individual and social decision making conditions. The dataset is available on Harvard Dataverse and include data of 14 subjects with 4,180 visual behavior metrics summary and 3,744 eye moment records in decision-related areas of attention.
