Objectives: The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is known to be higher in children with Down syndrome (DS) than the general pediatric population, with lower rates of surgical cure. This study aims to determine the prevalence and predictors of OSA and evaluate the outcomes of surgical intervention for OSA in a cohort of Australian children with DS.
Methodology: A retrospective chart review was conducted on 156 patients with DS from 0 to 18 years who had undergone overnight, attended polysomnography (PSG) at Sydney Children's Hospital from January 2010 to July 2023.

Kaempferol (Kae) is a flavonoid that has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. In recent years, there have been increasing reports on viral infection-induced Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) with high rates of disability and fatality. Therefore, in order to search for effective peripheral nerve injury repair drugs, we used rats with experimental autoimmune neuritis (EAN) as the typical animal model for GBS, and implemented Kae treatment intervention on EAN rats.

Motor proteins play a key role in neuronal functions and morphology that are important for learning and memory. We have previously reported that increased expression KIF11/Kinesin-5 overrides Aß-mediated effects on dendritic spine density and long-term potentiation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD), effectively maintaining cognitive function in the face of Aß pathology. Here, we evaluated the association of key AD phenotypes with mRNA expression levels of a select set of Dynein motor proteins METHOD: We utilized measurements of gene expression, AD neuropathology burden, and cognition provided by the ROS/MAP study to determine whether an association exists between AD phenotypes and expression of genes for cytoplasmic and axonemal dynein heavy chains.

Background: Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) have an increased genetic risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD), with most adults developing AD neuropathology in their 40s. Despite having a low frequency of systemic vascular risk factors such as hypertension and atherosclerosis, adults with DS display cerebrovascular pathology, including microbleeds, microinfarcts, and cerebral amyloid angiopathy. This suggests that blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity may be compromised allowing the extravasation of blood proteins in the brain parenchyma.

Background: We previously discovered that Aβ accumulates in the cortical/supranuclear region of the lens in people with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) (Goldstein et al., 2003) and Down Syndrome (DS; (Moncaster et al., 2010).
