Current strategies for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) involve tackling the formation or clearance of the amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) and/or hyper-phosphorylated tau, or the support and stabilization of the remaining neuronal networks. However, as we gain a clearer idea of the large number of molecular mechanisms at work in this disease, it is becoming clearer that the treatment of AD s...

In a Perspective accompanying Abad-Franch and colleagues, Lorenz von Seidlein, Alexander Kekulé, and Daniel Strickman discuss the importance of developing effective strategies to minimize mosquito-borne transmission of human diseases.

A new cone species, Cylinder sumbawaensis Verbinnen, 2022, was recently described from the Saleh Gulf (Teluk Saleh) of Sumbawa, Nusa Tenggara Islands (Lesser Sunda Islands), Indonesia. The species is morphologically very similar to bengalensis (Okutani, 1968) Bengal and Andaman Sea represents a geographically-isolated relict once widespread Indian Ocean-derived molluscan fauna that extended all...

BACKGROUND Since Pars Abad district had been known as a focus of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Ardabil Province but the prevalence of the disease in nomadic tribes has not been determined, thus, this study was conducted. METHODS This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on children up to 12yr old of nomadic tribes from Pars Abad County, Ardabil Province, Iran in 2015. For each ind...

In the acute setting, the majority of patients affected by uncomplicated acute type B aortic dissection (ABAD) can be managed with medical therapy. In these patients, inhospital outcome is generally acceptable, with mortality rates of 1-10% (1,2). However, long-term outcomes in this group is less positive, with a mortality rates reported as 2025% within 3 years. Predictors of long-term complica...

We show that there may be a Milliken-Taylor ultrafilter with infinitely many near coherence classes of ultrafilters in its projection to ω, answering a question by López-Abad. We show that k-coloured Milliken-Taylor ultrafilters have at least k + 1 near coherence classes of ultrafilters in its projection to ω. We show that the Mathias forcing with a Milliken-Taylor ultrafilter destroys all Mill...
