Olfactory Impairment and Incident Cognitive Decline: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Olfactory impairment (OI) is associated with poor ageing outcomes. While cross‐sectional studies found a high prevalence of OI among patients with neurodegenerative diseases, the temporal relationship remains unclear. This meta‐analysis aims to synthesise the longitudinal association of OI with cognitive decline (CD). Methods PubMed,

Diosgenin ameliorates silica‐induced tuberculosis in rats
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Silicosis increases susceptibility to tuberculosis due to impaired macrophage function and oxidative stress. This study demonstrates that diosgenin, a steroidal saponin, significantly inhibits Mycobacterium smegmatis (IC₅₀ = 0.006 μg/mL), reduces lung fibrosis, and restores antioxidant enzyme levels (↑SOD, ↑CAT, ↓MDA) in silica‐exposed rats ...

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Simplified schematic for generation of the subcutaneous air pouch model in the rodent. On day 0 and 4, air is injected into the subcutaneous space on the dorsal surface of the rodent to generate a cavity analogous to a synovial joint. On day 6, monosodium urate (MSU) or calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals are injected into the pouch to stimulate ...

μ‐Opioid Receptor Dynamics in the Parameningeal Tissue During Migraine Attacks
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective The possible impact of meningeal μ‐opioid receptor (μOR) binding in migraine remains unknown. This study investigated μOR availability in the cranial parameninges involved in migraine initiation via nociceptor activation. Methods We used positron emission tomography with [11C] carfentanil, and measured μOR availability in meninges and ...

Sex Differences in Associations of Lewy Body Disease with Alzheimer's Disease and Cognitive Decline
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective To investigate how sex and age at menopause influence the interplay between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Lewy body disease (LBD) neuropathologies, and their associations with cognitive decline. Methods We analyzed data from: (1) three Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center cohorts (i.e., the Religious Orders Study, Rush Memory and Aging Project, and

Cationic Nanoparticles Mitigate Chemotherapy‐Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), caused by chemodrugs like paclitaxel (PTX), leads to severe neuropathic pain. This study evaluates PTX‐loaded PAMAM‐Chol nanoparticles (PTX‐NPs) to alleviate CIPN. PTX‐NPs achieve 99% drug‐loading efficiency, reduce neurotoxicity, and in murine models, decrease cold allodynia by 85% while restoring ...
