Mather and colleagues present an impressive interdisciplinary model of arousal-induced norepinephrine release and its role in selectively enhancing/inhibiting perception, attention, and memory consolidation. This model will require empirical investigation to test its validity and generalizability beyond classic norepinephrine circuits because it simplifies extremely complex and heterogeneous actions including norepinephrine mechanisms related to higher cognitive circuits and psychopathology.

Fluorine-free organic framework polyelectrolyte membranes showing near frictionless ionic conductivities are gaining cognitive insights. However, the co-precipitation of COFs in the membranes often brings trade-offs to commission long-life electrochemical energy storage solutions. Herein, a durable and ionically miscible dual-ion exchange membrane based on triazine organic framework (TOF) is designed for alkaline redox flow batteries (RFB).

Background: Cardiometabolic disorders may accelerate the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD), potentially impacting ethnic-racial groups with a higher prevalence of diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease, though limited data exists on Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders (NHPI) populations.

Objective: This study aims to examine the prevalence of diabetes and associated comorbidities among AD patients from different ethnic-racial groups - Asians, Whites, and NHPIs - in Hawaii, with a focus on identifying risk factors linked to AD.

Method: A retrospective review was conducted on AD patient records from a single center in Hawaii, spanning June 2018 to June 2024.

Delirium is a highly prevalent neuropsychiatric syndrome characterised by acute and fluctuating impairments in attention and cognition. Mechanisms driving delirium are poorly understood but it has been suggested that blood cytokines and chemokines cross the blood brain barrier during delirium, directly impairing brain function. It is not known whether these molecules reach higher brain levels when the blood cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB) is impaired.
