Executive Functions in Latin American Older Adults: Exploring the Concept Shifting Test and Its Relationship with the APOE Gene in a Cross‐Sectional Sample from the LatAm‐FINGERS Study [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background Latin America (LA) faces high vulnerability to dementia risk factors. Early detection of cognitive decline, particularly in executive functions (EF), is crucial. The Trail Making Test (TMT) has limitations, while the Concept Shifting Test (CST) offers potential advantages but lacks LA adaptation.

Baseline Results Investigate APOE‐Memory Connection in Latin‐American Population at Risk for Dementia ‐ LatAm‐FINGERS Initial Insights [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background Latin America (LA) faces heightened vulnerability to modifiable dementia risk factors. Early identification of at‐risk individuals is crucial for implementing effective preventive strategies. The Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test with Immediate Recall (FCSRT‐IR) is promising in early detection of mnemonic impairment, with high ...

Antioxidants in Plant‐Based Food Matrices: From Structure–Activity and Degradation Kinetics to Formulation Design

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant‐based antioxidants are widely incorporated into foods to retard oxidative deterioration and to deliver health‐related benefits. Yet, their in‐product and in vivo performance frequently diverges from predictions based on solution‐phase chemical assays, because matrix interactions, processing history, and host metabolism reshape both ...

Stunt Nematode Found in Irrigated Lowland Rice Fields in North‐Central Brazil

Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 174, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Brazil is a major global rice producer. Among the problems affecting the crop, nematodes cause significant damage, but studies on rice nematodes in the country are still considered insufficient. Commercial rice crops in lowland regions of rice‐producing municipalities in the state of Tocantins, Brazil, were examined following reports of ...

A novel circumscription and classification for Neurolaeneae (Asteraceae)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Neurolaeneae (Asteraceae) have a complicated taxonomic history. The tribe was described in 1927, but subsequently disregarded in 1977, and later reinstated as a tribe following a large‐scale phylogenetic analysis of Asteraceae in 2002. To date, this tribe has remained poorly studied and it has never been the subject of a comprehensive ...

Leaf anatomy of species of Calea sect. Lemmatium (Asteraceae) with a taxonomic emphasis

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2025, Issue 10, October 2025.
Calea sect. Lemmatium is one of five sections of Calea (Neurolaeneae, Asteraceae), containing 12 species that are morphologically similar, which makes their identification difficult to non‐experts. The current study aimed to provide an anatomical characterization of species from Calea sect.

State‐Centric Persistence: Pursuing Social Welfare Benefits in Brazil

Governance, Volume 38, Issue 4, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Gaining and maintaining access to government‐run social welfare programs often requires significant and sustained effort by potential beneficiaries. Why do some eligible individuals persist in their pursuit of welfare benefits while others do not? In this paper, we provide a psychological theory of state‐centric persistence.
