An efficient hybrid quantum machine learning framework for Alzheimer classification

Tajinder Kumar, Neha Chachra, Purushottam Sharma, Vikram Verma, Chaman Verma, Zoltan llles

Abstract Neuro-imaging data is necessary for timely and correct diagnosis of the disease Alzheimer’s (AD). Early clinical intervention is challenging due to the high-dimensional nature of the images, making it computationally difficult to work on representations, sparse annotated datasets and inter-subject variance. Deep convolutional VGG, ResNet, DenseNet, MobileNet and other neural networks (CNNs) have shown good performance. Diagnostic performance, but they are based on a high number of parameters and require hi …

Choosing Our Reality: Relational Mobility Shapes When and With Whom People Share Reality

Abdo Elnakouri, Eli J. Finkel, Abigail A. Scholer

Our perceptions of reality are partly a byproduct of our goals. Past research has found that people are motivated to selectively share reality—shared inner states about the world—with those who help them achieve their goals (i.e., instrumental others). We argue that this desire to share reality with instrumental others depends on relational mobility: how free others are to leave relationships. Across 39 countries ( N ≈ 17,000), relational mobility predicted more shared reality with instrumental (vs. noninstrumental …

Vitamin D neuroimmune synaptic plasticity and precision intervention in pediatric neurodevelopmental disorders

Cheng Xie, Ping Xiang, Xinyun Ye, Wei Zhang, Yue Qian, Ying-ying Mu, Qiuhua Jiang

Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent in children worldwide but has long been regarded only as a risk factor for bone health. Emerging evidence indicates that vitamin D profoundly influences child brain development by regulating neuroimmune responses and synaptic plasticity, forming a “neuroimmune–synaptic plasticity axis.” Deficiency is significantly associated with the risk of multiple pediatric neurological disorders, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), epilepsy, and attention-deficit / hyperactivity di …

Psychological and health consequences of difficult-to-translate concepts among immigrant older adults

Senyao Yu, Tania M Rodriguez, Rachel Wu

Abstract In health care settings, immigrant older adults who are not fluent in English may not be able to fully express their problems, even with a translator, because there are important phrases about health problems in their native language that do not directly translate to concepts in English. This issue is particularly important for immigrant older adults, especially recent immigrants, who might experience limited English proficiency and rely heavily on health care services. For example, Chinese expressions, su …

Transcending aging: disease specificity, assessment challenges, and management strategies for rheumatoid arthritis-related sarcopenia

Xuchen Ren, Shuang Ren

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disorder marked by chronic synovitis, with pathological damages extending beyond joint destruction to skeletal muscle, bone and metabolic homeostasis. Sarcopenia is conventionally regarded as age-driven degeneration, yet its high prevalence in young RA patients indicates a distinct disease-specific muscle phenotype mediated by persistent inflammation and joint disuse. This review establishes an integrated “muscle-bone-fat axis” framework to interpret RA-related myo …

The Business Case for Dementia-Competent Hospitals: Analyzing the Financial Return on Investment of Specialized Staff Training and Care Models

M. Ellenbogen, P. K. Beville, S. W. Grande, J. Hobday, P. Logan, M. Minor, T. Snow

Dementia is now a defining financial and operational challenge for US hospitals. Healthcare costs for an individual living with dementia average nearly four times those of an individual without it ($19,956 vs. $5,394 annually), and patients with dementia face longer lengths of stay and higher rates of preventable complications. With the over-85 population projected to double by 2040, this pressure will only intensify. Specialized staff training and comprehensive care models are not clinical add-ons but strategic fi …
