Background: Gaining insight into the emotional consequences of disclosing amyloid Positron Emission Tomography (PET) results is essential for offering effective support to patients of varying cognitive status. This analysis aimed to examine variations in emotional distress levels following the disclosure of amyloid PET results among participants that are cognitively normal, with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), or dementia.
Method: This investigation was a preliminary analysis of 55 participants, using 1-month follow-up call data of an ongoing brain imaging data repository study, obtaining baseline PET imaging on a subset of Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC) participants.

Objectives: The primary repair of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has re-emerged as a treatment for acute ruptures. While numerous studies have investigated rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction, few have focused on primary repair. We aimed to describe the rehabilitation protocols for primary ACL repair, and to identify knowledge gaps and differences between primary ACL repair and reconstruction.

Three-quarters of the planet's land surface has been altered by humans, with consequences for animal ecology, movements and related ecosystem functioning. Species often occupy wide geographical ranges with contrasting human disturbance and environmental conditions, yet, limited data availability across species' ranges has constrained our understanding of how human pressure and resource availability jointly shape intraspecific variation of animal space use. Leveraging a unique dataset of 758 annual GPS movement trajectories from 375 brown bears (Ursus arctos) across the species' range in Europe, we investigated the effects of human pressure (i.

The growing relevance of rehabilitation in healthcare to address increasing patient needs necessitates robust Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (PRM) integration into medical education and practice. Academic PRM, rooted in medical faculties, is vital for developing the medical speciality as an academic discipline across Europe, where it faces challenges, including limited representation in medical schools and competition for resources with established disciplines. This commentary advocates establishing a representative organization for academic PRM in Europe.
