Association Between Cholinesterase Inhibitor‐Overactive Bladder Antimuscarinic Prescribing Cascade and Risk of Delirium and Falls Among Individuals Living With Dementia

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prescribing cascades occur when cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI)‐induced urinary incontinence is misinterpreted as a new condition, leading to overactive bladder (OAB) antimuscarinic initiation. We evaluated whether the ChEI‐OAB antimuscarinic prescribing cascade was associated with delirium or falls compared with mirabegron in older

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 505-516, April 2025.
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

Exercise‐induced dynamic hyperinflation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory lung disease caused by inhalation of noxious particles, most commonly cigarette smoking. The consequent changes in airways, lung parenchyma and pulmonary vasculature lead to increased resistive, elastic and threshold loads and impaired capacity of the respiratory muscle pump. COPD
