The Role of Microglia in Neuroinflammation: Metabolic and Gender Differences in Aging Research Background Aging is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Parkinson’s Disease. Even healthy aging is accompanied by a decline in cognitive function. Previous research has indicated that microglia undergo s...

Analysis and Potential Applications of miRNAs Related to Alzheimer’s Disease Background and Research Motivation Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a progressively worsening neurodegenerative disorder and the most common form of dementia among the elderly. The pathological features of AD in the brain primarily include senile plaques formed by the accumulat...

Changes in Growth-Associated Protein 43 and Tensor-Based Morphometric Indicators in Mild Cognitive Impairment Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a globally prevalent neurodegenerative disease whose incidence is expected to increase significantly in the coming years (Esquerda-Canals et al., 2017). The disease primarily manifests as defe...

Research Report Titled “Comprehensive Evaluation of TDP-43 Neuropathology Data in the National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center Database” Research Background TDP-43 proteinopathy is a significant neuropathological feature in frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD-TDP), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS-TDP), and age-related limbic TDP-43 encephalo...

Study of Tau Protein Accumulation in Brain Vasculature in Alzheimer’s Disease Background Introduction Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by neurodegeneration, with primary pathological features including amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). These tangles are composed of tau protein, and these pathological changes are closely relate...

Characteristics of Premature Cellular Senescence in Alzheimer’s Disease: Application of Single-Nucleus Transcriptomics Research Background and Objectives Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia in the elderly, characterized by extracellular deposition of β-amyloid protein and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. Other patholo...

Academic Report for the Paper Titled “Prospective Study of Homologous Recombination Repair Gene Mutation Prevalence in Patients with Advanced Prostate Cancer from Latin America: Challenges and Future Approaches” Background Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers among men in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). According to the 2020 Glo...

Timed Step Recommendations to Assist in Achieving Daily Goals - A New Strategy for Working and Elderly Adult Populations With the popularization of health trackers, high-resolution health data (such as hourly step counts) can be collected and used to evaluate health promotion plans. Take daily step goals for example. Research has found that the acc...

Mapping Multimorbidity Progression Among 190 Diseases Background Globally, with the aging population and the significant increase in the negative impacts of chronic diseases, multimorbidity, the coexistence of multiple long-term conditions, has become an increasingly severe health challenge. Understanding the accumulation process of multimorbidity ...

The Mediating Role of Systemic Inflammation in the Differences in Cognitive Disease Incidence and the Moderating Role of Racialization This study examines the link between systemic racism and the increased burden of cognitive disease. Researchers investigated the mediating role of C-reactive protein (CRP) as a marker of systemic inflammation in the...
