The chapter examines education and training initiatives aimed at improving dementia care in majority-world settings. It highlights three key programs that promote equitable partnerships between high-income countries (HICs), upper-middle-income countries, and lower and middle-income countries (LMICs). The first initiative is the Atlantic Fellows for Equity in Brain Health fellowship at the Global B

The global steel industry accounts for 8–10 % of global CO2 emissions and requires deep decarbonisation for achieving the targets set in the Paris Agreement. However, no low-emission primary steel production technology has yet been commercially feasible or deployed. Through analysing revisions and additions of European Union climate policy, we show that green hydrogen-based steelmaking in competitThe global steel industry accounts for 8–10 % of global CO2 emissions and requires deep decarbonisation for achieving the targets set in the Paris Agreement.

Semi-visible jets, with a significant contribution to the event's missing transverse momentum, can arise in strongly interacting dark sectors. This results in an event topology where one of the jets can be aligned with the direction of the missing transverse momentum. The first search for semi-visible jets produced via a t-channel mediator exchange is presented. The analysis uses proton-proton col

A search for nonresonant Higgs boson pair production in the bb¯γγ final state is performed using 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. This analysis supersedes and expands upon the previous nonresonant ATLAS results in this final state based on the same data sample. The analysis strategy is optimi

This letter presents a search for narrow, high-mass resonances in the Zγ final state with the Z boson decaying into a pair of electrons or muons. The s=13 TeV pp collision data were recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and have an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1. The data are found to be in agreement with the Standard Model background expectation. Upper limits are set

At the close of the sixteenth century, Archduke Charles of Inner Austria determined that only his eldest son was to succeed him. Barring his younger sons from rule was a break with the Habsburg tradition of partible inheritance and would prove to be an important step towards the introduction of primogeniture. How did the Austrian Habsburgs deal with this change in succession practice? This contrib

The first generation of ELT instruments includes an optical-infrared high resolution spectrograph, indicated as ELT-HIRES and recently christened ANDES (ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph).ANDES consists of three fibre-fed spectrographs ([U]BV, RIZ, YJH) providing a spectral resolution of ∼100,000 with a minimum simultaneous wavelength coverage of 0.4-1.8 µm with the goal of extending

INTRODUCTION: Epidemiological evidence suggests the association of preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) at baseline with the risk of heart failure (HF), however, the associations between transitions of PRISm and incident HF remain to be clarified. Furthermore, the causal relationship and underlying biological mechanisms linking PRISm and HF are unclear.OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to invest

Background: Physiologically guided revascularization improves clinical outcomes. The cutoff values for deferral with fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) are the same across all coronary arteries, despite differences in coronary flow patterns. The objective was to compare deferral rates using either FFR or iFR in the right coronary artery (RCA), left anterior desce

Molecular subtyping has been a major focus of bladder cancer research over the past decade. Despite many promising associations with clinical outcomes and treatment response, its clinical impact has yet to be defined. As part of the 2022 International Society of Urological Pathology Conference on Bladder Cancer, we reviewed the current state of the science for bladder cancer molecular subtyping. O

The compositions of alternative jet fuels can vary radically, and the consequences of these differences are a subject of ongoing investigation. Numerical combustion simulations are vital to this research and require chemical reaction mechanisms that efficiently and accurately capture the chemical pathways of combustion. Here, we present the recently developed Z79 collection of small pathway-centri

We investigate the persistence of embedded eigenvalues for a class of magnetic Laplacians on an infinite cylindrical domain. The magnetic potential is assumed to be C2 and asymptotically periodic along the unbounded direction of the cylinder, with an algebraic decay rate toward a periodic background potential. Under the condition that the embedded eigenvalue of the unperturbed operator lies away f

Importance: The etiologic interrelationship of 4 rare/controversial psychotic disorders (delusional disorder [DD], acute psychoses [AP], psychosis not otherwise specified [PNOS], and schizoaffective disorder [SAD]) is poorly understood. Objective: To assess levels of the family genetic risk score (FGRS) for schizophrenia (SZ), bipolar disorder (BD), and major depression (MD) in individuals with DD

This review covers recent advances (2023–2024) in neuroimaging research into the pathophysiology, progression, and treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias (ADRD). Despite the rapid emergence of blood-based biomarkers, neuroimaging continues to be a vital area of research in ADRD. Here, we discuss neuroimaging as a powerful tool to topographically visualize and quantify amyloid,

Aims Short, uncemented hip stems might provide a favourable alternative in total hip arthroplasty (THA) by preserving proximal bone mass through reduced strain-adaptive remodelling. We evaluated and compared the migration and periprosthetic bone remodelling of a short stem with and without a collar, using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) to measure implant migration and dual-energy X-ray absorptio

In this paper I’m concerned with the functional role of singular terms and how it can be used to construct a pragmatist theory of what it takes to understand reference. I argue that there are, at least, two distinct functions which singular terms fulfil, what I will call the talking-about and picking-out functions respectively. Both are, in one sense, ways that a term aids our understanding by spe

Background Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) represents a group of rare hereditary disorders characterised by deficient ciliary airway clearance that can be associated with laterality defects. We aimed to describe the underlying gene defects, geographical differences in genotypes and their relationship to diagnostic findings and clinical phenotypes. Methods Genetic variants and clinical findings (a
