The article presents results of evaluation concerning neurophysiologic and psychoemotional state of pilots with occupational neurosensory deafness. Findings are that pilots with occupational neurosensory deafness demonstrate disorganized type of EEG, supported by fading alpha-rhythm, increased slow wave activity in delta range. Other changes are decreased conduction velocity in distal part of median and ulnar nerves - that indicates development of demyelination processes. Psychologic studies proved that personality structure in pilots with occupational neurosensory deafness has dominant traits of balanced emotional reactions, constructive ways to overcome difficulties.

Background: India is witnessing a significant increase in the prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), and addressing this requires a comprehensive and multi-faceted approach. The burden of NCDs puts a strain on the healthcare system, requiring an increased focus on preventive measures, early detection, and management of chronic conditions.

Background: Although ultraviolet radiation is the most important risk factor for skin cancer in general, its role in disease control after the diagnosis of melanoma remains to be elucidated.
Objectives: To analyse the association between survival and self-assessed sun protection behaviour after a melanoma diagnosis.
Methods: This was a questionnaire-based pilot study.
Background: Social and structural determinants of health (SSDoH) must be measured longitudinally in order to better understand the effects of lived experiences on the trajectories of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) outcomes. We repeated administration of an SSDOH survey to examine response rates and response consistency in a sample of cognitively typical older adults.
Method: One online survey and one follow-up survey were administered to cognitively unimpaired participants (n = 135) in the UPenn Alzheimer's Disease Research Center clinical cohort ∼1.

Background: In low and middle-income countries like India, with limited treatment and support options, persons with dementia are primarily looked after by their families. Dementia's impact extends beyond the primary caregiver to the entire family. Involving and supporting family members in care can enhance the primary caregiver's well-being and improve the quality of care for the person with dementia.

Background: Since January 2023, South Korea has launched a pilot program of home-based rehabilitation services for patients with acute and chronic conditions. However, research on the effectiveness of occupational therapy for homebound stroke patients, aimed at promoting independence and activity participation, is limited. Additionally, previous action observation training studies in home settings often overlooked clients' occupational priorities and meanings.
