Caregivers’ perspectives on elderly welfare programmes, support needs and the role of government in Malaysia: a qualitative thematic analysis

Azleen Ilias, Nasrudin Baidi, Erlane K. Ghani, Rahida Abdul Rahman

Purpose Malaysia is projected to become an ageing nation by 2030, with the population aged 60 years and above expected to rise from 11.6% in 2024 to over 17% by 2040. This demographic shift places growing pressure on both formal elderly welfare programmes and the informal caregivers who provide the majority of day-to-day care.

A Systematic Review of Effects of Cholinesterase Inhibitors and Memantine on Cognitive Domains in Alzheimer’s Disease

Anna Williams, Anish Bandalore Satheesha Reddy, Latha Velayudhan

Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is characterised by progressive cognitive decline. Cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEI) (donepezil, rivastigmine and galantamine) and memantine have been the mainstay treatment and have showed their effectiveness on total cognitive scores, but their effects on individual cognitive domains remain unclear. This systematic review examined their impact on individual cognitive domains. Method PubMed, Cochrane, MEDLINE, Web of Science and PsycINFO were searched (1st January 1999 - 31st Mar …

Alcohol Consumption and Risk of Dementia and Cognitive Decline: From Evidence to Prevention Strategies

Auda Fares

Alcohol use disorders serve as a significant and modifiable risk factor for the development of dementia, underscoring the urgent need for proactive clinical and public health interventions. Emerging research suggests that the relationship between alcohol consumption and cognitive health is nuanced, with studies indicating that the lowest risk for cognitive dysfunction and dementia is associated with low-level intake, specifically around 30 g and 15 g of alcohol per day, respectively. To effectively mitigate the lon …

Creating fire-adapted landscapes for both people and nature: could we protect all western US communities from wildfires and facilitate restoring fire to wildlands within a decade?

William L Baker

Abstract Wildfires burned hundreds of communities in the 11 western US states (11WS) over the last two decades, and a federal program, Confronting the Wildfire Crisis, is using fuel-reduction treatments (FRTs) over 7–9 million ha in 10 years to reduce exposure of communities to fires originating in distant wildlands. But, could a landscape system of fire-resistant land-uses and FRTs near communities better protect them all? If possible, this could also facilitate wildfire restoration in wildlands, both goals of Fir …

Regional Fractal Dimension as a Complementary Morphometric Marker in Alzheimer’s Disease

Yongha Gi, Hyeongjin Lim, A Hyun Jung, Jeongwon Lee, Sangyoon Park, Seol-Hee Baek, Jong Hyun Kim, Byung-Jo Kim, Myonggeun Yoon

Introduction: Fractal Dimension (FD) has been proposed as a marker of structural complexity in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), but its regional distribution and complementary value beyond conventional morphometry remain unclear. This study investigated whether regional FD captures AD-related structural alterations distinct from regional volume and thickness. Methods: Using T1-weighted MRI from ADNI1, with external validation in MIRIAD and NACC, we extracted 79 cortical, subcortical, and CSF-related regions and computed v …

Emma L. Watson, Niamh Quann, Faizan Awan, Shaun R. Barber, Nicola Cooper, Indranil Dasgupta, Jonathan P. Folland, Laura J. Gray, Gordon McGregor, Jakob Škarabot, Meghan Tanel, Cat Taylor, James O. Burton

Abstract Background Sarcopenia is highly prevalent among adults receiving haemodialysis and is associated with reduced physical function, impaired quality of life, and increased morbidity and mortality. Although structured exercise programmes can improve muscle health, most people receiving haemodialysis are unable or unwilling to participate, highlighting the need for accessible alternatives. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a non-volitional method of muscle contraction that may act as an ‘exercise m …
