United States and European Union laws demand separate clinical studies in children as a condition for drugs' marketing approval. Justified by carefully framed pseudo-scientific wordings, more so the European Medicines Agency than the United States Food and Drug Administration, "Pediatric Drug Development" is probably the largest abuse in medical research in history. Preterm newborns are immature and vulnerable, but they grow.

Objectives: Sepsis is a time-sensitive condition, and many rural emergency department (ED) sepsis patients are transferred to tertiary hospitals. The objective of this study was to determine whether longer transport times during interhospital transfer are associated with higher sepsis mortality or increased hospital length-of-stay (LOS).

Methods: A cohort of rural adult (age ≥ 18y) sepsis patients transferred between hospitals were identified in the TELEmedicine as a Virtual Intervention for Sepsis Care in Emergency Departments (TELEVISED) parent study.

Background: Recent advancements in connectome analyses allow for more fine-grained measurements of brain network integrity. One measure of integrity is resilience, or the capacity of the network to retain functionality when confronted with endogenous or exogenous perturbations that result in damage or error. We assessed the impact of individual differences in the resilience of resting BOLD connectivity on the relationship between cognitive and brain changes in a lifespan cohort of cognitively healthy adults over a 5-year period.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias can have long preclinical phases; thus, midlife intervention and prevention methods could prove efficacious. Multiple health-related lifestyle factors have been associated with risk for AD. However, research on lifestyle factors has focused on clinical outcomes such as cognitive decline, mild cognitive impairment and/or AD dementia; their associations with potential early changes in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers are less understood.

Background: The amygdala is a hotspot for neuropathologies; however, it is unclear 1) which neuropathologies lead to amygdala neurodegeneration, 2) what specific amygdala subnuclei are affected, and 3) if the neuropathologies related to amygdala volume are local (inside the amygdala), or distal (in other regions). We investigate the relationships between different neuropathologies (tau, amyloid-β [Aβ], α-synuclein [α-syn], and transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 [TDP-43]) and amygdala volumes.

Method: We analyzed postmortem data from 73 individuals with and without neurodegenerative diseases (age: 77±11 [45-101] years; 26 [36%] females; 51 [70%] cognitively impaired).
