The relationship between leisure time physical activity patterns, Alzheimer’s disease markers and cognition by James, S, Sudre, CH, Barnes, J, Cash, DM, Chiou, Y, Coath, W, Keshavan, A, Lu, K, Malone, I, Murray-Smith, H, Nicholas, JM, Orini, M, Parker, T, Almeida-Meza, P, Fox, NC, Richards, M, Schott, JM

“…Engagement in leisure time physical activity in the life course is associated with better cognitive functioning at age 70, even in those with early markers of Alzheimer’s disease. If causal, this is likely via multiple pathways, potentially through the preservation of hippocampal volume, as well as via cognitive resilience pathways delaying cognitive manifestations of early markers of Alzheimer’s disease, particularly in women. …”

Adverse health events associated with antipsychotic use: an umbrella review by Chow, RTS

“…In terms of patient variables, older adults aged over 65 and patients with dementia were more likely to experience antipsychotic-associated adverse outcomes than adults and patients with schizophrenia. …”

Differences in the effectiveness of individual-level smoking cessation interventions by socioeconomic status by Theodoulou, A, Fanshawe, TR, Leavens, E, Theodoulou, E, Wu, AD, Heath, L, Stewart, C, Nollen, N, Ahluwalia, JS, Butler, AR, Hajizadeh, A, Thomas, J, Lindson, N, Hartmann-Boyce, J

“…<p><b>Background</b></p> People from lower socioeconomic groups are more likely to smoke and less likely to succeed in achieving abstinence, making tobacco smoking a leading driver of health inequalities. …”

Early Immune Regulatory Changes in a Primary Controlled Human Plasmodium vivax Infection: CD1c + Myeloid Dendritic Cell Maturation Arrest,... by Yeo, Tsin Wen, Woodberry, Tonia, Loughland, Jessica R., Minigo, Gabriela, Burel, Julie G., Amante, Fiona H., Piera, Kim A., McNeil, Yvette, Good, Michael F., Doolan, Denise L., Engwerda, Christian R., McCarthy, James S., Anstey, Nicholas M.

“…Induction of the kynurenine pathway and increased Treg activation, together with skewed mDC maturation, suggest P. vivax promotes an immunosuppressive environment, likely impairing the development of a protective host immune response.…”

The effect of the amyloid-beta peptide on the fluidity of cell membranes : a study by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy by Ng, Justin Wei Qing

“…Although there have been several studies done regarding this topic, the results have been conflicting and thus inconclusive, likely due to the drawbacks and biases introduced by techniques used in those studies. …”

Selective lighting up of epiberberine alkaloid fluorescence by fluorophore-switching aptamer and stoichiometric targeting of human telomeric DNA G-quadruplex multimer by Zhang, Lihua, Liu, Hua, Shao, Yong, Lin, Clement, Jia, Huan, Chen, Gang, Yang, Danzhou, Wang, Ying

“…The steady-state absorption, steady-state/time-resolved fluorescence, and NMR studies demonstrate that EPI most likely interact with the 5′ end flanking sequence substructure beyond the core [Q] and the G-quadruplex tetrad in a much more specific manner than the other alkaloids. …”

Structural analysis of the novel influenza A (H7N9) viral Neuraminidase interactions with current approved neuraminidase inhibitors Oseltamivir, Zanamivir, and Peramivir in the pre... by Tran-To Su, Chinh, Ouyang, Xuchang, Zheng, Jie, Kwoh, Chee Keong

“…Results: Combination of molecular docking and Molecular Dynamics simulation reveal that zanamivir forms more favorable and stable complex than oseltamivir and peramivir when binding to the active site of the H7N9 neuraminidase. And it is likely that the novel influenza A (H7N9) virus adopts a higher probability to acquire resistance to peramivir than the other two inhibitors. …”

Same data, different analysts: variation in effect sizes due to analytical decisions in ecology and evolutionary biology by Gould, E, Fraser, HS, Parker, TH, Nakagawa, S, Griffith, SC, Vesk, PA, Fidler, F, Hamilton, DG, Abbey-Lee, RN, Abbott, JK, Aguirre, LA, Alcaraz, C, Aloni, I, Altschul, D, Arekar, K, Atkins, JW, Atkinson, J, Baker, CM, Barrett, M, Bell, K, Bello, SK, Beltrán, I, Berauer, BJ, Bertram, MG, Wood, A

“…In other words, analyses with results that were far from the mean were no more or less likely to have dissimilar variable sets, use random effects in their models, or receive poor peer reviews than those analyses that found results that were close to the mean. …”
