Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
NYU School of Medicine, New York, NY, USA.
Background: In the United States, approximately 2 million caregivers of people with Alzheimer's disease or related dementia (ADRD) are Latin American. As many of these caregivers are family or friends, most are not equipped with the tools necessary to address common behaviors associated with ADRD. Music-based interventions are an effective and accessible tool to assist caregivers in addressing these persistent behaviors.

Objective: To adapt and finalize the CHAT for care partners of hospitalized PLWD.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a complex metabolic disease that has short-term and long-term adverse effects on mothers and infants. However, the specific pathogenic mechanism has not been elucidated.
Objective: The aim of this study was to confirm the associations between candidate genetic variants (rs4134819, rs720918, rs2034410, rs11109509, and rs12524768) and GDM risk and prediction in a southern Chinese population.

January 2025
The First Hospital of Jinan University, Guangzhou, China.
Purpose: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often show abnormal speech prosody. Tonal languages can pose more difficulties as speakers need to use acoustic cues to make lexical contrasts while encoding the focal function, but the acquisition of speech prosody of non-native languages, especially tonal languages has rarely been investigated.
Methods: This study aims to fill in the aforementioned gap by studying prosodic focus-marking in Mandarin by native Cantonese-speaking children with ASD (n = 25), in comparison with their typically developing (TD) peers (n = 20) and native Mandarin-speaking children (n = 20).
