Dementia Care Practice.
Alzheimers Dement

Wisconsin Alzheimer's Institute, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, WI, USA.
Background: The majority of persons living with moderate to severe dementia live in their homes despite the challenges of increasing care needs as dementia progresses. Caregivers are not prepared to understand and manage common medical concerns, such as incontinence, dehydration, and impaired mobility. Health care clinicians need training and tools to better prepare caregivers for these responsibilities.

University of São Paulo Medical School, São Paulo, Brazil.
Introduction: Patients with severe cognitive impairment, with the progression of the disease, show behavioral impairments, loss of functionality and, in many cases, swallowing changes (dysphagia). Dysphagia comes with serious complications that can cause health damage, such as malnutrition, dehydration and serious lung damage secondary to aspirations. Eating process goes beyond nutritional intake, as it has a social, cultural, behavioral, physical and cognitive component.

Globally there is a shortage of available donor corneas with only 1 cornea available for every 70 needed. A large limitation to corneal transplant surgery is access to quality donor tissue due to inadequate eye donation services and infrastructure in many countries, compounded by the fact that there are few available long-term storage solutions for effectively preserving spare donor corneas collected in countries with a surplus. In this study, we describe a novel technology termed low-temperature vacuum evaporation (LTVE) that can effectively dry-preserve surplus donor corneal tissue, allowing it to be stored for approximately 5 years, shipped at room temperature, and stored on hospital shelves before rehydration prior to ophthalmic surgery.

Department of Urology, Chung-Ang University Hospital, Chung-Ang University College of Medicine, Seoul, 06973, Republic of Korea.
Background: Dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane (dHACM) has shown potential in enhancing neurovascular recovery and functional outcomes in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).
Aim: To evaluate the effects of dHACM on continence recovery, sexual function, and oncological outcomes in patients undergoing RARP.
Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following PRISMA guidelines, analyzing data from PubMed, Cochrane, and EMBASE.
In recent years, non-invasive screening methods for diagnosing various human conditions, including those corresponding to biological age, have attracted great interest, one of the sources for non-invasive research of which is oral fluid.
