Characterization of Anticholinergic Medication Use and Its Associations With Everyday Memory Problems and Cognitive Decline in Autistic Adults With Higher Support Needs

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among older adults in the general population, medications with anticholinergic (AC) effects are associated with declines in cognitive functioning and with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Autistic people have high rates of co‐occurring medical conditions and polypharmacy across the lifespan; thus, they may be at particularly high risk of ...

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...
