AI Article Synopsis
- Dye application is crucial in diagnosing parasites through the Ova and Parasite exam, with a review of 1334 papers resulting in 35 relevant studies focused on the interaction between staining solutions and parasite structures.
- The core research emphasizes the importance of differentiating between background and foreground in fecal smears under light microscopy, exploring factors like refractivity and uneven staining to improve staining protocols.
- Current studies prioritize diagnostic efficacy over understanding the chemical interactions of dyes, and suggest using computational tools to minimize subjectivity in interpreting fecal smears.
Article Abstract
Dye application for parasite highlighting in the Ova and Parasite exam is a common practice in parasitology diagnosis. A scoping review investigated how staining solutions interact with parasite structures. After screening 1334 papers, 35 met eligibility criteria. Differentiating background from foreground in the fecal smear under light microscopy is the core of the research on this topic. Refractivity, unevenness of staining, size and temperature were explored to enhance staining protocols. spp. and Microsporidia were the main studied species. Studies on diagnostic efficacy outperform those that elucidate the physical-chemical interaction between dyes and parasites. An alternative approach involves technicians using computational tools to reduce subjectivity in fecal smear interpretation, deviating from conventional methods.

Motivation of nursing undergraduate program entrants: A scoping review protocol.
PLoS One

FAMERP- Faculty of Medicine of São José do Rio Preto, São José do Rio Preto, Brazil.
Motivation is of great importance in the teaching-learning process, because motivated students seek out opportunities and show interest and enthusiasm in carrying out their tasks. The objective of this review is to identify and present the information available in the literature on the status quo of motivation among nursing program entrants. This is a qualitative scoping review study, a type of literature review designed to map out and find evidence to address a specific research objective, following the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology.

Background This scoping review aimed to identify literature describing allied health interventions used to address challenging behaviour for adults with an acquired brain injury (ABI) living in community settings and identify the impact of these interventions on outcomes across the domains of behaviour, activity, and participation. Methods The Polyglot Search Translator for scoping reviews guided the search of six databases: (1) Ovid Medline®, (2) EmCARE (Ovid), (3) CINAHL Complete, (4) Embase (Ovid), (5) Scopus, and (6) Cochrane Library to identify literature published between 1990 and 2023. Results Of the 1748 records screened, 16 articles met the inclusion criteria.

Background: The National Centralized Repository for Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (NCRAD) is continuing to develop a bank of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) that are available by request to the Alzheimer's disease (AD) research community.
Methods: As part of the pipeline for quality control of received cell lines, DNA was extracted for all lines and was submitted for whole genome sequencing (WGS). Paired-end WGS data was generated using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 and processed following GATK best practices using the Sentieon pipeline.

Université Laval, Quebec, QC, Canada.
Background: There is a common agreement that Alzheimer's disease (AD) is inherently complex; otherwise, a general disagreement remains on its etiological underpinning, with numerous alternative hypotheses having been proposed. Our objective was to perform a scoping review of original manuscripts describing hypotheses and theories of AD published in past decades.
Methods: We reviewed 127 original manuscripts that fulfilled our inclusion criteria out of more than 13,807 references extracted from open databases (from inception to 14 Sept 2023).

Background: Deficits in decision-making (DM) can lead to adverse outcomes across multiple domains such as financial management and medical care. By hindering such DM abilities, cognitive impairment (CI) often affects quality of life. Routine screening for CI, however, does not include systematic and comprehensive assessment of DM ability.
