Intellect is an important personality trait, especially with regard to the prediction and explanation of intellectual performance, such as occupational or academic success. However, much less is known about the development of Intellect. I present results from a longitudinal study spanning eight years to investigate changes in Intellect during a critical period: the transition from school to vocation. The study is based on a large and heterogeneous sample with up to 1964 participants. Using a facet approach, I investigate predictors of longitudinal trajectories theoretically derived from construct definition, including subjective and objective attributes of education and profession; attitudes regarding the malleability of personality traits; as well as personality traits beyond Intellect, especially intelligence. Results reveal some support for the social investment principle according to neo-socioanalytic theory, as epistemic job demands and epistemic leisure activities predicted the increase in Intellect over time. The study contributes to our understanding of the development of personality traits related to intellectual achievement, including important internal and external predictors of longitudinal trajectories.

Background: Effective treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains an unmet need. Thus, identifying patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) who are at high-risk of progressing to AD is crucial for early intervention.
Methods: Blood-based transcriptomics analyses were performed using a longitudinal study cohort to compare progressive MCI (P-MCI, n = 28), stable MCI (S-MCI, n = 39), and AD patients (n = 49).
Joint analysis of blood pressure changes over time and survival of hypertensive patients under treatment at Sawula hospital in Southern Ethiopia.

Introduction: Hypertension is among the most significant non-communicable public health issues worldwide. High blood pressure, or hypertension, has been associated with severe health consequences, including death, aneurysms, stroke, chronic renal disease, eye damage, heart attack, heart failure, peripheral artery disease, and vascular dementia. Consequently, this study aimed to investigate the predictors linked to survival time and the progression of blood pressure measurements in hypertensive patients.

Aim: To investigate the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and myocardial strain and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD), and to evaluate the predictive value of EAT parameters in early left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction.
Materials And Methods: One hundred seventy patients with suspected CAD who underwent both coronary computed tomography angiography and echocardiography were enrolled in 2020. LV global strains were calculated using commercial software.
Predictive factors for traumatic cerebral contusion volume, expansion, and outcomes.

Article Synopsis
- This study analyzes prognostic factors affecting long-term outcomes and changes in contusion volume in patients with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) due to hemorrhagic cerebral contusions.
- Key findings indicate that older age, larger initial contusion volumes, and lower Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores are linked to worse functional outcomes post-injury.
- The research suggests that the GCS verbal score could predict both initial contusion volume and potential expansion, highlighting its importance in managing and predicting patient outcomes in neurosurgery.
