Developing a structured framework to explore the experiences of people with dementia and their caregivers regarding non‐pharmacological sleep interventions

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION This paper presents the development of a framework to assess the use and experiences of non‐pharmacological interventions (NPIs) supporting sleep, including technological and indoor environmental quality (IEQ) measures. Sleep disturbances are common in people with dementia (PwD) and increase caregiver burden.

Knowledge, Attitude, and the Practice in Nosocomial Infection Control Among Afghan Healthcare Workers in Herat Afghanistan: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hospital‐acquired infections (HIAs) remain a major threat to patient and healthcare worker (HCW) safety globally, with higher burden in low‐resource settings. Despite moderate knowledge among HCWs in many low‐income contexts, actual adherence to infection prevention practices is often poor.

Model Informed Precision Dosing of Tacrolimus in Children Following Heart Transplant

The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 66, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Tacrolimus is a first‐line immunosuppressant used after solid organ transplantation that suffers from extensive intra‐ and inter‐patient variability and a narrow therapeutic window. Its critical role in a fragile population, coupled with the difficulties identifying and maintaining an appropriate dose within a given patient, make it an ideal ...

The CARMUCI Study Design: A Double‐Blind, Cross‐Over Sham‐Controlled Trial of Indoor Air Purification in People With Cystic Fibrosis and Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background People with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) and primary ciliary dyskinesia (pwPCD) are particularly vulnerable to the harmful effects of air pollution due to the impairment of mucociliary clearance (MCC). Despite growing evidence supporting the use of indoor air purification in common lung conditions, its role in CF and PCD remains ...
