Active Vaccination Strategies for Alzheimer's Disease: An Expanded Review
Overview of immunotherapeutic strategies targeting Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and their clinical implications. (Left) Key neuropathological hallmarks of AD, including extracellular amyloid‐beta (Aβ) aggregates and intraneuronal hyperphosphorylated Tau (phospho‐Tau), converge to produce synaptic failure, neuroinflammation and neuronal ...

ABSTRACT This study investigated neuromuscular fatigue and perceived fatigability across different high‐intensity endurance running protocols. Twelve males (mean ± SD; V˙O2max $\dot{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{O}}_{2\,\max }$: 52.2 ± 6.9 mL/kg/min) ran ∼8.0 km: (i) at the velocity associated to the respiratory compensation point (vRCP; 5 × 8 min bouts ‒ RUN100%

Flashing third eyelids and other involuntary facial movements in tetanus in four dogs
Abstract This study describes four dogs with tetanus that presented with ‘flashing third eyelids’ and other involuntary facial movements. Flashing of the third eyelids reflects the intermittent involuntary bilateral eyeball retraction accompanied by passive movements of the nictitating membranes. Four dogs presented with ‘flashing third eyelids’ either
