Neuroscience, Volume 585, 15 October 2025

This study presents AlzFormer, a novel deep learning framework utilizing spatiotemporal self-attention to classify Alzheimer’s disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and cognitively normal (CN) individuals from structural MRI scans. By modeling MRI volumes as sequential slice-based inputs and fine-tuning a pre-trained TimeSformer model, AlzFormer achieved 94% accuracy and high class-wise F1-scores, while attention map analyses highlighted clinically relevant brain regions, demonstrating both robust performance and interpretability in multiclass AD diagnosis.

Pressurized metered-dose inhalers contribute substantially to the health care sector's carbon footprint due to hydrofluorocarbon propellants, whereas dry powder inhalers (DPI) have a lower environmental impact. This study compares asthma treatment strategies by assessing both clinical effectiveness and carbon emissions, demonstrating that as-needed budesonide/formoterol DPI is more environmentally sustainable and clinically comparable with other treatments.

Land Use Policy, Volume 157, October 2025

As one of the most food-insecure countries of the Global South, Ethiopia has experienced significant land-use changes driven by economic development and population growth. This study examined the dynamic land use transitions in Ethiopia during the period 2000–2020 including the socio-economic factors driving land-use transitions and grain demand. Although the sustained growth in international trade coupled with increased productivity has benefited the country's food supply, the food security situation in low-income countries, including Ethiopia, will remain critical in the context of population growth.

With an estimated 2 billion people worldwide suffering from iron deficiency — a condition linked to anemia, impaired childhood brain development, and higher infant mortality — researchers are racing to find more effective nutritional interventions. MIT scientists have developed a promising solution: tiny crystalline particles known as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that can be used to fortify everyday foods and beverages, mixed into foods such as bread or sprinkled directly into drinks like coffee or tea.

This is the largest cohort study to date of women with hyperemesis gravidarum, and it is the first to explore a wide array of neuropsychiatric and mental health outcomes, including psychotic disorder. Evidence study suggests that while hyperemesis gravidarum increases the risk of poor mental health compared to unaffected pregnancies, the link between its severity and psychiatric burden is complex. The lower depression risk in cases with metabolic disturbance versus mild disease may reflect varying levels of healthcare support.
