Although there are numerous biologics and several oral treatments for psoriasis, a number of promising systemic therapies are on the horizon. Knowledge of these medications might help guide our treatment approach to the patient with psoriasis. This article provides an update on the most recent (as of 2019) approved therapies and medications in the pipeline for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, with a focus on systemic agents in phase 3 clinical trials.

Real-World data platforms for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) offer a unique opportunity to improve health equity through better understanding of health disparities and inclusivity in research, which is critical to translatability of research findings. AD research in the US and globally remains largely inaccessible to many individuals due to individual-level, study-level, investigator-level and larger systemic barriers. ALZ-NET, a US-based registry to evaluate longitudinal outcomes of patients being evaluated for or treated with novel FDA-approved AD therapy, and New IDEAS, an observational US-based longitudinal study of amyloid PET clinical utility, both offer opportunities for examining care, inclusivity, and disparities.

Dysregulation of complement leads to excessive inflammation, direct damage to self-cells and propagation of injury. This is likely of particular relevance in the brain where inflammation is poorly tolerated and brain cells are vulnerable to direct damage by complement.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: In the brain as in other organs, complement contributes to immune defence and housekeeping to maintain homeostasis. Sources of complement may include local production by brain cells and influx from the periphery, the latter severely restricted by the blood brain barrier (BBB) in healthy brain. Dysregulation of complement leads to excessive inflammation, direct damage to self-cells and propagation of injury.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Department of Neurosciences, University of California San Diego, La Jolla, CA, USA.
Background: Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is characterized by the accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) as well as Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, which includes the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aß) in plaques and phosphorylated tau in tangles, leading to neurodegeneration, cognitive loss and dementia. In DLB and other synucleinopathies, α-syn oligomers and proto-fibrils are thought to be mechanistically linked to the pathogenic neurodegenerative process. AD and related disorders (ADRD) are leading causes of dementia in the aging population and although new approaches are being tested, to date no disease-modifying therapies are available.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Emory University, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Background: Among Black caregivers of persons living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), the overlay of health disparities and systemic discrimination substantially contribute to heightened adverse health outcomes. Black dementia caregivers report experiencing challenges in providing care that may be exacerbated by them receiving fewer support services and having more unmet needs compared to their racial counterparts. Furthermore, historical systemic failures and disadvantages impacting Black dementia caregivers contribute to long-established stressors and vulnerabilities.
