Background: Young gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men have been referred to as a "hard-to-reach" or "hidden" community in terms of recruiting for research studies. With widespread internet use among this group and young adults in general, web-based avenues represent an important approach for reaching and recruiting members of this community. However, little is known about how participants recruited from various web-based sources may differ from one another.

Article Synopsis
  • A classification prediction model using Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) is developed to analyze factors leading to escape behaviors in hit-and-run crashes, based on data from the U.S. Crash Report Sampling System (CRSS).
  • GBDT outperforms other common methods like CART, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression, achieving the best metrics (lowest negative log-likelihood, misclassification rate, and highest AUC) and showcasing better computational efficiency.
  • The GBDT model uncovers previously unmentioned factors, such as crash type and relation to the trafficway, and effectively studies interactions between variables, providing valuable insights for improving hit-and-run incident prevention and safety analysis.

Alzheimers Dement

December 2024

Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) shares pathological and genetic underpinnings with frontotemporal dementia (FTD). ALS manifests with diverse symptoms, including progressive neuro-motor degeneration, muscle weakness, but also cognitive-behavioural changes in up to half of the cases. Resting-state EEG measures, particularly spectral power and functional connectivity, have been instrumental for discerning abnormal motor and cognitive network function in ALS [1]-[3].

Background: Alzheimer's disease is a progressive form of dementia where cognitive capacities deteriorate due to neurodegeneration. Interestingly, Alzheimer's patients exhibit cognitive fluctuations during all stages of the disease. Though it is thought that contextual factors are critical for unlocking these hidden memories, understanding the neural basis of cognitive fluctuations has been hampered due to the lack of behavioral approaches to dissociate memories from contextual-performance.
