This article provides a comprehensive review of the use of graphene-based biosensing platforms for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease. It is found that graphene-based biosensors can detect Alzheimer's disease biomarkers at femtomolar concentrations, enabling early diagnosis before symptom onset. These sensors can also identify multiple biomarkers simultaneously in accessible biofluids like blood, saliva, and urine, enabling less invasive testing.

This viewpoint offers insights on policy to improve diet quality, that resonate not only in Bangladesh but also across other countries navigating similar transitions.

Celebrated annually on October 16, World Food Day is a key global event focused on raising awareness about food security and hunger.

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.

Effective decision support systems are more essential as smart cities continue to develop. Decision-makers can use the suggested framework as a flexible platform for integrating, analyzing and visualizing complex data streams to help with resource management, policy formation, and urban planning.

This article is a review of the global commitments to ending hunger and achieving SDG2 by 2030, analisesthe rhetoric, actionable plans, financing, and accountability mechanisms. Strengthening global governance and institutionalizing monitoring of commitments are essential to translate these declarations into effective national policies.

World Alzheimer's Day, observed every year on September 21st, is an international campaign to raise awareness and challenge the stigma surrounding Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.

The TRAILBLAZER-ALZ 6 study found that a modified donanemab titration regimen significantly reduced ARIA-E frequency and severity compared to standard dosing, while maintaining similar amyloid reduction. Safety profiles were comparable between the two arms. The modified titration approach may help mitigate risks associated with amyloid-targeting therapies in early Alzheimer's disease.

The 30-day Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality (STS-PROM) has been used to risk-stratify patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Whether surgical mortality risk predicts stroke and neurocognitive outcomes following TAVR is unknown. We evaluated the association between STS-PROM and clinical outcomes, including stroke, acute brain injury on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI), and cognitive decline in patients undergoing TAVR.
