In Mexico, there is a range of formal and informal transfers to help older adults. This paper analyses national trends and the results of a study focused on the federal entity of Guanajuato. The distribution of the support provided confirms that the transfers made by the social security system have an urban bias and that formal transfers from the federal government are oriented to the least urban areas, and especially rural areas. Despite the existence of formal transfers (which are irregular and insufficient), the economic and health needs of older adults remain unmet and, as a result, their relatives make informal transfers. In Mexico, and more specifically in Guanajuato, those who live with older adults provide a very significant amount of support, whereas those who have migrated do not. On the basis of this material, we analyse of the role played by descendants, according to their cohort and migration status. In any case, it is clear that there the dynamics of intergenerational transfers are different in each national entity.

Department of Anesthesia & Critical Care, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
Purpose: To determine whether preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reliably determine intraoperative measurements in the Vertiflex Interspinous Spacer (ISS) procedure.
Methods: Patients who underwent Vertiflex ISS with Lumbar Spinal Stenosis (LSS) and a preoperative MRI available in picture archiving and communication system (PACS) between January 2013 to February 2023 were identified retrospectively from the University of Chicago Medical Center Database. An experienced board-certified pain specialist and well-trained 2nd-year medical student independently performed measurements of the interspinous space where Vertiflex ISSs of various sizes are inserted.

Objective: In this study, we investigated the application value of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) combined with targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) in the pathogen detection-based diagnosis of patients with lung infections.
Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent tracheoscopy and conventional microbiological tests (CMTs) on BALF, coupled with metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) or tNGS. This investigation encompassed individuals with suspected lung infections at Tianjin First Central Hospital from March 2023 to July 2023.
