Background: The effects of stress on nursing students' health and learning is important to educators. The purpose of this review was to critically integrate the literature related to the stress that nursing students experience regarding high-fidelity simulation (HFS).

Method: Literature from multiple search engines and databases was systematically searched. Keywords and Boolean combinations included nursing students, simulation, stress, anxiety, and self-efficacy. Qualitative or quantitative studies published in English between 2010 and 2015 and studies including the effects of simulation on nursing student anxiety and stress were included. Seventeen studies were chosen.

Results: Overall, students reported either moderate or high stress associated with simulation, but they rated the HFS experience as a valuable learning tool.

Conclusion: This review demonstrated student acceptance of simulation as a learning strategy. However, more high-quality studies are needed to investigate techniques that can be implemented to decrease the negative effects of simulation stress on nursing students.

Alzheimers Dement

Eisai Inc., Nutley, NJ, USA.

Background: Lecanemab is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to Aβ soluble protofibrils. In two clinical studies (phase 2, NCT01767311 and phase 3 ClarityAD, NCT03887455) in early Alzheimer's disease, lecanemab substantially reduced amyloid PET and significantly slowed clinical decline on multiple measures of cognition and function, including CDR-SB at 18 months. Models describing the change in amyloid PET and CDR-SB in response to lecanemab treatment were used to explore the impact of changing from the initial dosage regimen (10 mg/kg every 2 weeks [Q2W]) to a less intensive maintenance dosing regimen (10 mg/kg every 4 weeks [Q4W]) on clinical efficacy, and to explore the optimal duration of the initial dosing regimen.

Biogen, Cambridge, MA, USA.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by the formation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) composed of tau aggregates. Research in animal models has generated hypotheses on the underlying mechanisms of the interaction between Aβ and tau pathology. In support of this interaction, results from clinical trials have shown that treatment with anti-Aβ monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) affects tau pathology.

Background: The key advantage of active immunization is the induction of sustained, polyclonal antibody responses that are readily boosted by occasional immunizations. Recent clinical trial outcomes for monoclonal antibodies lecanemab and donanemab, establish the relevance of targeting pathological Abeta for clearing amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease. ACI-24.

Background: The well-accepted statistical efficacy inference approach for Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials compares the absolute difference in change from baseline at the last study visit using MMRM (henceforth referred to as MMRM-Last-Visit). Recent AD clinical trials have shown that treatment effects may be manifested prior to 18 months. The objective is to evaluate models estimating an overall treatment effect across all post-baseline visits that may characterize disease modifying effects in contemporary early AD clinical trials.

Yonsei University, Incheon, Incheon, Korea, Republic of (South).

Background: The accumulation of amyloidogenic proteins is recognized as a primary biomarker, initiator of pathology, and a potential therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). An unbiased screening of a small molecule library was conducted to identify new chemical compounds exhibiting amyloid-dissociative properties.

Method: The ability of aryloxypropanolamine derivatives to dissociate amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregates was evaluated through in vitro assays.
