A small perturbation introduced in the stochastic Leslie model leads to a long-lived stable population in a region or parameter space where the stochastic model predicts the demise of the population. This somewhat surprising result is understood by considering a related model with a density-dependent sex ratio which exhibits similar features.

Background: The differential diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is complicated by overlapping clinical manifestations. This challenges accurate clinical diagnosis and highlights the need for molecular level investigations to understand underlying pathologies. There have been few proteomic investigations into NPH, which were limited by low sample sizes and limited analytical depth.

Background: An emergency department (ED) visit or hospitalization provides an opportunity to identify elder mistreatment and initiate intervention, but this seldom occurs. To address this, we developed the Vulnerable Elder Protection Team (VEPT), a novel interdisciplinary consultation service. We explored the long-term trajectories of patients receiving VEPT evaluation and intervention.

Design: A 39-member interprofessional and international expert working group of clinicians (physicians, nurses, and pharmacists) and nonclinicians (biostatisticians, epidemiologists, and trial methodologists) was convened. Four expert panels were assembled to explore key subtopics (pharmacological/nonpharmacologic treatment, methodological challenges, and novel research designs).

Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonists and Risk of Thyroid Cancer: An International Multisite Cohort Study.

Concerns have been raised that glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) may increase the risk of thyroid cancer, but evidence remains conflicting. We therefore investigated if GLP1-RA use, compared with use of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is), was associated with thyroid cancer risk in patients with type 2 diabetes. This multisite cohort study with subsequent meta-analysis included six population-based databases from Canada (Ontario), Denmark, Norway, South Korea, Sweden, and Taiwan.
