Background: People with cerebral palsy are largely dependent on their caregivers, who are most often members of their family. Caring for people with disabilities can be challenging as both dependents and caregivers face problems of social isolation and stigmatization.
Aim: The aim of this study was to understand the experiences of caregivers of dependents with cerebral palsy in Greece.

Background: Despite the increasing popularity of electronic devices, the longitudinal effects of daily prolonged electronic device usage on brain health and the aging process remain unclear.
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the daily use of mobile phones/computers on the brain structure and the risk of neurodegenerative diseases.
Methods: We used data from the UK Biobank, a longitudinal population-based cohort study, to analyze the impact of mobile phone use duration, weekly usage time, and playing computer games on the future brain structure and the future risk of various neurodegenerative diseases, including all-cause dementia (ACD), Alzheimer disease (AD), vascular dementia (VD), all-cause parkinsonism (ACP), and Parkinson disease (PD).

Background: One-stage direct-to-implant (DTI) breast reconstruction is increasingly popular with the use of prepectoral reconstruction leading to increased demand for structural scaffolds. It is vital to determine if differences in safety profiles exist among scaffolds.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients in our breast cancer center undergoing DTI reconstruction.

In the search for novel natural products with hepatoprotective effects against acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury, the marine-derived fungus WHUF0198 was investigated. Seventeen undescribed pyranopyridone alkaloids, aculeapyridones A-Q (-), were isolated by bioactivity-guided fractionation of an extract obtained by coculture of the WHUF0198 with the mangrove-associated fungus sp. DM27.

The bonding and spectroscopic properties of LaX and AcX (X = O and F) diatomic molecules were studied by high-level ab initio CCSD(T) and SO-CASPT2 electronic structure calculations. Bond dissociation energies (BDEs) were calculated at the Feller-Peterson-Dixon (FPD) level. Potential energy curves and spectroscopic constants for the lowest-lying spin-orbit Ω states were obtained at the SO-CASPT2/aQ-DK level.
