Department of Epidemiology, Rollins School of Public Health, Emory University, Atlanta.
Objectives: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) may affect antiretroviral therapy (ART) response and clinical outcomes for veterans with HIV (VWH) receiving care in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Objectives are to estimate the associations between PTSD and ART nonadherence, modifications, and failure; measure effect modification by number of deployments and combat exposure; and examine how these associations vary over time.
Design: In this prospective cohort study of all VWH on ART who deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan and receive care in the VA (n = 3206), patients entered at ART initiation and were censored in December 2022, totaling 22 261 person-years of follow-up.

Background: Preinjury antithrombotic (AT) use is associated with worse outcomes for geriatric (65 years or older) patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Previous studies have found that use of AT outside established guidelines is widespread in TBI patients.
Methods: In this single-center retrospective cross-sectional study, we examined inappropriate AT use among geriatric patients presenting with traumatic intracranial hemorrhage.

Background/aims: In the absence of disease-modifying therapies for Parkinson's disease, much research focuses on improving quality of life, health and wellbeing. It is important to evaluate potential treatments and innovative care models in a robust and standardised way. Disease-specific outcomes have limitations in older people, those with cognitive impairment, multimorbidity, disability or short life expectancy.
