Interaction of human and socially assistive robot can have applicability in actual settings, and adoption to function in human environment for Alzheimer's disease. This review revealed that there are still several technical challenges that must be addressed in future advancements before being integrated in real life of individuals with Alzheimer's disease. The results will help move towards the establishment of best practices for the development of human and socially assistive robot interaction for Alzheimer's disease and, in turn, help enhance the experience of people suffering from this disease.
This study focuses on neuroimaging methods such as structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) have been used to diagnose and categorize AD
This study investigates the relationship between antidiabetic drugs and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in a population-based sample.
This review discusses the impact of Apolipoprotein-E4 (ApoE4) on cognitive performance in targeted-replacement human ApoE knock-in mice, finding that ApoE4 mice exhibit significant cognitive deficits compared to ApoE3 mice in various cognitive tests, indicating an intrinsic vulnerability in ApoE4 mice that may be exacerbated in the context of neurodegenerative diseases.

Radiative cooling (RC) has been an attractive electricity-free approach to reducing the energy consumption of buildings. Current RC strategies focus on roofs; however, limited attention has been paid to vertical walls. Here, we report a zigzag-based structural design with asymmetric emissivity to realize optimal RC walls.

On 23 December 1994, the United Nations General Assembly decided, in its resolution 49/214, that the International Day of the World’s Indigenous People shall be observed on 9 August every year. The date marks the first meeting, in 1982, of the UN Working Group on Indigenous Populations.

The International Day observance will take place online on Friday, 9 August 2024.

The present research focuses on the gap and need for developing global heat wave frameworks to effectively identify dangerous heat wave outdoor conditions over diverse climatic and geographic regions. This development will be helpful for climate scientists, health professionals, policymakers, and communities in developing mitigation strategies and raising awareness of heat risks.

This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health by addressing innovative treatment options for multiple sclerosis (MS), specifically hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), which may offer hope for patients with aggressive forms of the disease and improve their chances of long-term remission. By discussing the efficacy, safety, and unique considerations of HSCT, the chapter emphasizes the importance of personalized treatment approaches in enhancing health outcomes for individuals with MS. Furthermore, it supports Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by providing insights into advanced therapies and recommendations for patient selection, which can help ensure that all patients, regardless of their background, have access to cutting-edge treatments that can significantly impact their quality of life and manage their condition effectively.
This Article supports SDG 3 and 13 by analysing how numerous mitigation strategies, such as plant-based diets, increasing green spaces, increasing active transport, using renewable energy sources, and smoking cessation, may have the co-benefit of reducing cardiovascular disease.
