Affective Infrastructure: Capitalism's Specters in the Ecovillage Findhorn Community

Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Ecovillage Findhorn Community (EFC) in Northeast Scotland seeks to live in harmony with nature. How the community has done this over its 60‐plus years has changed from social communalism, where residents lived in cheap caravans, to now mostly privately‐owned expensive ‘eco’ houses with green technology.

A breviloquent description about the challenges involved and the management strategies for the complex cardiac abnormality — Ivemark syndrome

Journal of Rare Diseases
Ivemark syndrome, a classification of heterotaxy syndrome, is an extremely uncommon congenital condition. An aberrant configuration of the thoracoabdominal organs across the body’s left–right axis is known as heterotaxy, and it is always linked to either

Transient Dip in Head Circumference Growth Trajectories Associated With Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Administration in Very Preterm Infants

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In preterm infants, decreasing head circumference (HC) percentiles have been linked to neurodevelopmental impairment. Devices for administering continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) may alter skull morphology. We investigated the impact of sequentially administered CPAP and high‐flow nasal cannula on HC percentiles.

Evidence of emerging transcriptome mediators of Alzheimer's disease in canine cognitive dysfunction

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) may be a promising model of Alzheimer's disease (AD). To assess AD‐related molecular signatures in CCD, we generated transcriptome data on dog cortex and plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs). CCD‐related transcriptome changes were similar to those in aging/AD humans and were detectable in EVs from the same animals ...
