Disease stage-specific atrophy markers in Alzheimer's disease

INTRODUCTION: Structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) often lacks diagnostic, prognostic, and monitoring value in Alzheimer's disease (AD), particularly in early disease stages. To improve its utility, we aimed to identify optimal atrophy markers for different intended uses.METHODS: We included 363 older adults; cognitively unimpaired individuals who were negative or positive for amyloid beta

Tau, atrophy, and domain-specific cognitive impairment in typical Alzheimer's disease

INTRODUCTION: A granular understanding of the mechanisms linking tau pathology to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease is crucial. We investigate mediating effects of medial temporal lobe (MTL) and neocortical neurodegeneration on tau-induced domain-specific cognitive impairment in amyloid-beta (Aβ) positive cognitively normal and impaired adults.METHODS: We assessed magnetic resonance imaging

Developing an Anatomically Valid Segmentation Protocol for Anterior Regions of the Medial Temporal Lobe for Neurodegenerative Diseases

The anterior portion of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) is one of the first regions targeted by pathology in sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD) and limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE) indicating a potential for metrics from this region to serve as imaging biomarkers. Leveraging a unique post-mortem dataset of histology and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, we aimed to (

Epidemiology of respiratory syncytial virus and its subtypes among cases of influenza like illness and severe acute respiratory infection : findings from nationwide sentinel surveillance in Ethiopia

Background: Data in Ethiopia on the epidemiology of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) and subtypes among influenza-like illness (ILI) and severe acute respiratory infections (SARI) cases is limited. Here, we assessed the epidemiology of RSV and its subtypes among the pediatric and adult ILI /SARI cases in Ethiopia. Methods: We conducted prospective, multicenter facility-based study from May 2023 t

Cryptic infection of a giant virus in a unicellular green alga

Latency is a common strategy in a wide range of viral lineages, but its prevalence in giant viruses remains unknown. In this work, we describe a 617–kilo–base pairs integrated giant viral element in the model green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We resolved the integrated viral genome using long-read sequencing, identified a putative polintovirus-like integrase, and show that viral particles accu

Transition from spontaneous to explicit symmetry breaking in a finite-sized system : Bosonic bound states of an impurity

The presence of a single attractive impurity in an ultracold repulsive bosonic system can drive a transition from a homogeneous to a localized state, as we here show for a one-dimensional ring system. In the few-body limit, the localization of the bosons around the impurity, as seen in the pair correlations, is accompanied by low-lying modes that resemble finite-sized precursors of Higgs-Anderson-

Atrial Fibrillation, Venous Thromboembolism, and Risk of Pulmonary Hypertension : A Swedish Nationwide Register Study

BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is suggested to be associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE) and might thereby play a role in the development of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH). By elevating left-sided filling pressure and promoting atrial myopathy, AF may also play a role in the development of postcapillary PH. We aimed to investigate the association between AF, with or
