Sci Adv. 2015 Oct 09;1(9):e1500639. doi: 10.1126/sciadv.1500639. eCollection 2015 Oct.

Electrical stimulation is currently the gold standard for cardiac pacing. However, it is invasive and nonspecific for cardiac tissues. We recently developed a noninvasive cardiac pacing technique using optogenetic tools, which are widely used in neuroscience. Optogenetic pacing of...

Polypharmacy in an Elderly Population: Enhancing Medication Management Through the Use of Clinical Decision Support Software Platforms.

Neurology and therapy

Keine D, Zelek M, Walker JQ, Sabbagh MN.

Neurol Ther. 2019 Jun;8(1):79-94. doi: 10.1007/s40120-019-0131-6. Epub 2019 Mar 21.

INTRODUCTION: Polypharmacy is a growing problem in the United States. The use of multiple medications increases the likelihood that a patient will experience potential drug interactions and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Those individuals with dementia or Alzheimer's disease (AD)...

Uniform resolution of compact identifiers for biomedical data.

Scientific data

Wimalaratne SM, Juty N, Kunze J, Janée G, McMurry JA, Beard N, Jimenez R, Grethe JS, Hermjakob H, Martone ME, Clark T.
PMID: 29737976
Sci Data. 2018 May 08;5:180029. doi: 10.1038/sdata.2018.29.

Most biomedical data repositories issue locally-unique accessions numbers, but do not provide globally unique, machine-resolvable, persistent identifiers for their datasets, as required by publishers wishing to implement data citation in accordance with widely accepted principles. Local accessions may however...

Permutation Tests for General Dependent Truncation.

Computational statistics & data analysis

Chiou SH, Qian J, Mormino E, Betensky RA.
PMID: 30613119
Comput Stat Data Anal. 2018 Dec;128:308-324. doi: 10.1016/j.csda.2018.07.012. Epub 2018 Jul 29.

Truncated survival data arise when the event time is observed only if it falls within a subject-specific region, known as the truncation set. Left-truncated data arise when there is delayed entry into a study, such that subjects are included...

Reliability of Medical History Reporting in Older Adults With and Without Cognitive Impairment.

Journal of central nervous system disease

Plasma-borne indicators of inflammasome activity in Parkinson's disease patients.

NPJ Parkinson's disease

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms and loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra. Inflammation and cell death are recognized aspects of PD suggesting that strategies to monitor and modify these...

Longitudinal differences in everyday preferences: Comparisons between people with cognitive impairment and their care partners.

International journal of geriatric psychiatry

Brain communications

Sanderson JB, De S, Jiang H, Rovere M, Jin M, Zaccagnini L, Hays Watson A, De Boni L, Lagomarsino VN, Young-Pearse TL, Liu X, Pochapsky TC, Hyman BT, Dickson DW, Klenerman D, Selkoe DJ, Bartels T.

Brain Commun. 2020;2(1):fcaa010. doi: 10.1093/braincomms/fcaa010. Epub 2020 Feb 11.

Since researchers identified α-synuclein as the principal component of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites, studies have suggested that it plays a causative role in the pathogenesis of dementia with Lewy bodies and other 'synucleinopathies'. While α-synuclein dyshomeostasis likely contributes...
