The increasing incidence of dementia calls for effective and innovative approaches to alleviate societal and personal burdens. Aging in place is a sustainable paradigm which ensures the best utilization of societal resources, supports caregivers, secures normalcy, and optimizes care for persons with dementia (PwD). Home-based surveillance technology can support PwD in safely aging in place. This study examines factors associated with the adoption of home-based surveillance technologies among unpaid dementia caregivers. Through an online survey ( = 203), we apply ordinal logistic regression to identify five variables that predict the likelihood of caregivers' surveillance technology adoption for dementia care. The predictors are caregivers': (1) trouble concerns about PwD, (2) online support group membership, (3) perceived social norms regarding surveillance technology use, (4) perceived usefulness of surveillance devices, and (5) depth of information and communication technologies (ICT) use. Theoretical and practical implications for dementia healthcare are discussed.

Foodborne illnesses are a significant global public health challenge, with an estimated 600 million cases annually. Conventional food microbiology methods tend to be laborious and time consuming, pose difficulties in real-time utilization, and can display subpar accuracy or typing capabilities. With the recent advancements in third-generation sequencing and microbial omics, nanopore sequencing technology and its long-read sequencing capabilities have emerged as a promising platform.

Background: Data from observational and clinical studies indicate an association between skin microbiota and hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). However, the causal relationship between skin microbiota and HS remains to be elucidated.
Methods: We obtained data on skin microbiota and HS from summary statistics of genome-wide association studies and applied Mendelian randomization (MR) statistical methods to assess causality.
