Suicide risk is highest immediately after psychiatric hospitalization, but the field lacks methods for identifying which patients are at greatest risk, and when. We built personalized models predicting suicidal thoughts after psychiatric hospital visits (N=89 patients), using ecological momentary assessment (EMA; average EMA responses per participant=311). We built several idiographic models, including baseline autoregressive and elastic net models (using single train/test split) and Gaussian Process (GP) models (using an iterative rolling-forward prediction method). Simple GP models provided the best prediction of suicidal urges (R2average=0.17), outperforming baseline autoregressive (R2average=0.10) and elastic net (R2average=0.06) models. Similarly, simple GP models provided the best prediction of suicidal intent (R2average=0.12) compared to autoregressive (R2average=0.08) and elastic net (R2average=0.04). Here we show that idiographic prediction of suicidal thoughts is possible, though accuracy currently is modest. Building GP models that iteratively update and learn symptom dynamics over time could provide important information to inform development of just-in-time adaptive interventions.

Published: May 2023

Aligning with a Safe Systems approach, innovative intersection designs seek to improve safety and reduce crash risk by reducing speeds, modifying conflict angles and minimising conflict points. However, limited research has explored how drivers subjectively experience these intersections and their perceptions of risk and workload. This study reports on the subjective evaluations and perceived workload of drivers who navigated five innovative and two control intersection designs. Three experiments were undertaken in which participants travelled straight-through on an inner lane (N=76), straight through on an outer lane (N=72), or completed a right turn (N=77). Measures of workload and qualitative evaluations were collected. Control intersections that were based on the current existing layouts were rated as having the lowest workload, likely because of familiarity with the intersection. For the innovative intersections, workload scores were highest for participants when travelling straight through the unrestricted squircle. By comparison, self-reported workloads were relatively low for the cut-through, raised approach, raised intersection and restricted squircle. Some concerns were raised about the perceived safety and complexity of the innovative designs. However, participants generally evaluated the intersections positively, finding the innovative designs easy to navigate.
Planetary Welcare principles for just and sustainable futures: a compass for system change, trade reforms, and transformations
Authors: Uehara Thiago Kanashiro
Published: May 2023

International trade, a cornerstone of the global economy, has witnessed substantial growth since the start of the 21st century. This expansion, largely driven by liberalizing policies and supported by initiatives like the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, has deeply integrated economies worldwide, making trade a substantial part of global gross domestic product (GDP). However, this growth also spotlights cultural, social, and environmental consequences. Studies indicate that trade is responsible for up to 70% of global environmental impacts, often transferring burdens from “developed” to “developing” nations. While trade bolsters economies, it also poses risks to people, nature, and the planet. In this article, I introduce the Planetary Welcare compass, an innovative framework designed to navigate these multifaceted challenges and drive transformative change. This framework integrates diverse perspectives on development, equity, sustainability, and planetary health into five interconnected principles: enhancing well-being, promoting balanced consumption, fostering accountability with integrity, embracing rooted globalism, and championing environmental stewardship. The article delves into the foundation of this framework and applies it to the overarching strategies of both the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the International Fair Trade Charter (IFTC), highlighting their divergent approaches and associated challenges. In conclusion, the Planetary Welcare compass offers a comprehensive set of principles to guide and assess production and consumption systems, including trade policies and agreements. It suggests a significant shift from the traditional welfare-state model toward a broader focus on planetary health, equity, and sustainability, ushering in the emergence of a “Welcare state” paradigm for a just and sustainable future.
Event history analysis with two time scales. An application to transitions out of cohabitation
Authors: Carollo Angela , Putter Hein , Eilers Paul H. C. , Gampe Jutta
Published: May 2023

Event history models are based on transition rates between states and, to define such hazards of experiencing an event, the time scale over which the process evolves needs to be identified. In many applications, however, more than one time scale might be of importance. Here we demonstrate how to model a hazard jointly over two time dimensions. The model assumes a smooth bivariate hazard function, and the function is estimated by two-dimensional P-splines. We provide an R-package TwoTimeScales for the analysis of event history data with two time scales. As an example, we model transitions from cohabitation to marriage or separation simultaneously over the age of the individual and the duration of the cohabitation. We use data from the German Family Panel (pairfam) and demonstrate that considering the two time scales as equally important provides additional insights about the transition from cohabitation to marriage or separation.
War and Migration: Quantifying the Russian exodus through Yandex search trends
Authors: Anastasiadou Athina , Volgin Artem , Leasure Douglas R.
Published: May 2023

Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, many Russian citizens have left Russia due to increasing repressions by the government, the fear of mobilization, or to escape the economic downturn. As of yet, reliable statistical data on those who left are not available. Hence, much remains unknown about the characteristics and scope of this population. However, migrants in the digital age prepare for their journeys by searching online, and these digital traces provide clues about their intentions and the scale of the migration event. Here we aim to leverage this resource to study geographic, temporal, and demographic trends in international migration intentions of Russian residents. Our analysis combines search queries provided by Yandex Wordstat with city-level data on socio-demographic and geographic characteristics and examines the two exodus waves, the first one shortly after the war began and the second one shortly after mobilization efforts started. Extracting meaning from this data with a gravity modelling approach, we find that regional indicators for wage levels were less important for the second wave and the proximity of a country of interest increased fourfold in importance. These and other results support dominant narratives in the media about the Russian brain drain and the scale of the exodus. Beyond this specific study, we also argue that Yandex searches have the potential to inform migration research.
NFT Shop and Making Sense of the NFT Art Market. Is NFT a blessing or a curse to digital art?
Authors: Guljajeva Varvara , Sola Mar Canet
Published: May 2023

In 2021, the concept of NFTs gained worldwide attention when a digital artist known as ‘Beeple’ sold his work Everydays: The First 5000 Days for 69 million US dollars at Christie’s, placing him among the top three living artists by sale value (Kastrenakes 2021). Since then, “non-fungible token” (or “NFT”) has rapidly become a high-scoring term on Google Trends and there has been corresponding growth in the number of artists, collectors, and platforms dealing with NFTs.Because of the many NFT platforms, the enormous volume of NFTs, the involvement of various cryptocurrencies, the fluctuating prices, and unpredictability of trends, navigating the NFT art market is very complicated. In an attempt to engage in this new sphere of speculation (and to speculate about it), we opened a physical NFT Shop at an abandoned gas station. Besides NFT art, we offered conversation and warm coffee to visitors. Surprisingly, we found almost everyone we met had heard about NFTs, although few demonstrated any in-depth knowledge. Our NFT Shop was expressly concerned with displaying only ‘clean’ NFTs, thereby underlining the environmental impact of typical blockchain technology. Tezos, a cryptocurrency known as a clean and eco-friendly ‘crypto’, is gaining popularity in the NFT art market as an alternative to Ethereum, which has a high carbon footprint (McDonald 2021) and high minting cost. According to Memo Akten’s A guide to eco-friendly CryptoArt, the cost of transactions in Ethereum fluctuates between $100-$1000 (Akten 2021), which is in stark contrast to Tezos, where exchange fees are currently below a dollar. The high energy consumption of blockchain has generated strong opposition, especially among artists. Thus, many alternative NFT platforms such as objkt and fx(hash) use Tezos and brand themselves as an eco-friendly and affordable marketplaces.Despite the availability of relatively clean cryptos, many digital artists prefer not to be associated with CryptoArt of any kind. At the same time, the general audience for art largely assumes that all digital art is NFT art. From the perspective of digital artists, it is difficult to say whether NFTs are a blessing or a curse. On the one hand, the art market has become receptive to digital formats, so many artists now have the opportunity to make a living from their art. On the other hand, there remains much that seems ‘unclean’ about NFT markets, although all transactions are entirely transparent. In this context, this paper and our art project NFT Shop aim to offer a framework for making sense of the NFT marketplaces and thus help to demystify the concepts of NFT and related platforms.
Occupational segregation in the digital economy? A Natural Language Processing approach using UK Web Data
Authors: Occhini Giulia , Tranos Emmanouil , Wolf Levi John
Published: May 2023

This paper investigates whether and how occupational segregation affects the digital economy. Despite the continuous growth of entrepreneurial activity in the digital, little is known about the demographic characteristics of people actively engaging with it and bene ting from it. Further, while popular discourse portrays the digital as a \level playing  eld" for economic engagement, the literature has yet to empirically test these claims. Gaining a better understanding of whether occupational segregation is replicated in the digital can assist us in bridging new types of digital inequalities and demystify meritocratic narratives around success in the digital economy. To address this question, we use textual data extracted from UK commercial websites and model digital economic activities through Natural Language Processing techniques. We compare our findings across different gender and ethnicity groups, adopting a research framework informed by intersectionality theory. Our results indicate that occupational segregation persists in the digital economy, as male and female entrepreneurs tend to engage with economic activities stereotypically associating with their gender. However, we do not find the same results when comparing entrepreneurial outputs of female and male entrepreneurs of colour. Our results pave the way for more research in entrepreneurship using Natural Language Processing, textual data and analyses atthe intersectional level.

Authors: Kasad Nurul Wahda R.
Published: May 2023

Internet Exchange Point (IXP) is a network infrastructure providing facilities for connecting devices to exchange traffic. In building an IXP network, there are several main components: routers, switches, and IXP member devices. This research uses the UCLA method according to the scenario that has been made based on qualitative data from interviews with IDCloudHost. The research object is the IXP network owned by IDCloudHost, which was previously built using BIRD as the primary infrastructure in the form of a platform. This study aims to optimize the existing IXP network management process by re-implementing it using IXP Manager as the primary infrastructure. The research results show that the IXP network management process was done manually. BIRD configuration needed to be done on several different devices and could only be operated by IDCloudHost's Chief Technology Officer. The configuration process was done manually. After using IXP Manager, IXP network management on IDCloudHost Bogor configurations can generate automatically. All technicians operate the availability of IXP network performance graphs, which are more centralized and can. In addition, it also has an impact on the management process that can be carried out from a technical and administrative side, can be developed and integrated into various existing services at IDCloudHost, optimizes employee performance, and increases the maturity and business continuity of the company which means IXP network management at IDCloudHost can be optimized by using IXP Manager and BIRD
Heat Loss and Cost Reduction of Insulation Materials on Geothermal Pipes
Authors: Putradianto Ristiyan Ragil , Lukmana Allen Haryanto
Published: May 2023

Power plant in X field has 6 production wells with steam dominated reservoir type. Fluid flowing in pipe from the well to the plant experienced heat loss that occured due to difference in the temperature of the flowing steam and the outside that caused heat transfer from inside the pipe to the outside. Minimizing heat transfer can be done by using an insulator is installed on the outside of the pipe, in this case, Foamglas W+F Insulation  The method to assess the heat loss is by calculating material properties as well as fluid properties to deterimine heat transfer rate for one well as representation of all wells. From the calculation, it can be concurred that the use of Foamglas W+F Insulation material provides reduction in heat loss of 113,61 kWh for one well with significant reduction in costs of 1.035 billion IDR per well per year. By comparing the heat loss reduction value which is almost the same, the option to replace the materials to Foamglas W+F insulation material is cheaper than adding the existing insulation thickness.
Clashing Scales and Accelerated Change

Sometimes attempts to reduce volatility have the opposite effect. A naturally flexible system which is regimented and disciplined to a fixed shape loses its ability to adjust to shifting circumstances. This is a recurrent theme in the anthropology of globalisation, where the dynamics between the fixed and the fluid are no less important than the more commonplace local–global contrast. Modernity produces infrastructures, institutions and practices that are unable to adapt smoothly to changing ecological conditions, giving priority to standardised models rather than solutions tailored to fit assemblages with unique characteristics. This article discusses two cases from Norway – a controversy over a bridge in an ecologically vulnerable area and a mudslide leading to considerable material damage and the loss of ten lives – as a means of looking into the scalar gaps and the relationship between stability and volatility in a society committed to technological control.

Parfois, les tentatives de réduction de la volatilité ont l‘effet inverse. Un système naturellement flexible qui est enrégimenté et discipliné à une forme fixe perd sa capacité à s‘adapter aux circonstances changeantes. Il s‘agit d‘un thème récurrent dans l‘anthropologie de la mondialisation, où la dynamique entre le fixe et le fluide n‘est pas moins importante que le contraste local-global, plus commun: la modernité produit des infrastructures, des institutions et des pratiques qui sont incapables de s‘adapter en douceur aux conditions écologiques changeantes., privilégiant des modèles standardisés plutôt que des solutions adaptées à des assemblages aux caractéristiques uniques. Cet article traite de deux cas en Norvège – une controverse sur un pont dans une zone écologiquement vulnérable et une coulée de boue entraînant des dégâts matériels considérables et la perte de dix vies – afin d‘examiner les écarts scalaires et la relation entre stabilité et volatilité dans une société engagée dans la maîtrise technologique.
Changing Monsoonal Waterworlds
Authors: Cullen Beth
Published: May 2023

This article explores volatility from the perspective of hilsa fish in the Bengal Delta. The hilsa, known as ilish in Bengali, takes advantage of monsoonal hydrological dynamics in its life cycle. Today, hilsa are changing in response to anthropogenic activities, which attempt to stabilise delta landscapes in response to perceived volatility, but generate new volatilities that are felt and sensed corporeally by people who are entangled with hilsa lifeways. Interactions with a fisher, a cook, a scientist and an environmental activist during multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork in Bangladesh provide insights into how hilsa are experiencing and responding to spatial, material and temporal environmental transformations. Embodied understandings of hilsa lifeworlds gained through acts of fishing, cooking, dissecting and monitoring reveal the more-than-human reverberations of human-induced volatility.

Cet article analyse la volatilité du point de vue du poisson hilsa dans le delta du Bengale. Le hilsa, également connu sous le nom de ilish en bengali, exploite la dynamique hydraulogique de la mousson au cours de son cycle de vie. Aujourd'hui, on constate que le poisson hilsa a changé en réponse aux activités anthropique qui tentent de stabiliser l'espace du delta contre sa volatilité perçue. Cette action créé une nouvelle volatilité qui est perçu par les personnes vivant étroitement avec le poisson hilsa. L’étude est basée sur une ethnographie multisite et des interactions avec un pêcheur, un cuisinier, un scientifique et un activiste écologique au Bangladesh, dont l'objectif était de comprendre comment les expériences avec et l’étude du hisla permettent de saisir les transformations de l'environnement à l’œuvre. Le savoir incorporé des rythmes de vie du hilsa à travers l'activité de pêche, de cuisine, de dissection ou de surveillance donne à voir les réverbérations sur le non-humain de la volatilité induite par l'homme.
Beyond (Un)Stable

Until recently, river islands have been neglected in island studies and river/water scholarship. We address this research gap by focusing on the ‘fluidscape’ of the Lower Ganga Basin, West Bengal, India. Drawing empirical insights on chars (river islands) of the River Ganga, located upstream and downstream of the Farakka Barrage, we present lives and livelihoods in this ‘ever-shifting landscape’ and demonstrate how the barrage project led to transplantation–obliteration–resurrection of chars in repetitive cycles and activated ambivalence among choruas (communities inhabiting chars). Our fluid tales of everydayness in the volatile river islands show how these ‘muddyscapes of hazards’ become ‘muddyscapes of opportunities’ along ‘situated adaptive practices’ and contingent adjustments pursued by choruas. We establish chars as the most significant metaphor of destabilisation, dislodging widely held ideas about rivers, vulnerability, adaptation, among others. The deployment of ‘volatility’ as the theoretical-conceptual traction allows us to perceive chars beyond vulnerability and instead as viablescapes.

Jusqu’à récemment, la littérature académique des rivières et espaces aquatiques s'est peu intéressée aux îles fluviales. L'existence de ce qui est « fluide » - c'est-à-dire, au-delà de la démarcation entre le « solide » et le « liquide » - en Asie du sud deltaïque n'est pas reconnue comme legs du savoir hydrologique colonial. Afin de combler ce vide, cette article présente les résultats d'une enquête empirique conduite sur les îles du bas Gange, en amont et en aval du barrage Farakka. En proposant la notion de « fluidscapes », nous nous attacherons à décrire les vies et modes de vie dans ces espaces toujours en mouvement et montreront comment le projet de barrage a provoqué une rupture sans précédent dans l’écologie de la rivière qui a transplanté, oblitéré et ressuscité des îles fluviales en cycles répétitifs. Il fera également écho à l'attitude ambivalente des Choruas, ces communautés qui habitent les îles fluviales. Ces histoires fluides de la vie quotidienne dans des îles fluviales volatiles nous permettent de mieux comprendre comment ces « espaces boueux dangereux » peuvent devenir des « espaces boueux d'opportunité » par la mise en œuvre de pratiques d'adaptation et d'ajustements contingents de la part des Choruas. Nos enquêtes ethnographiques nous ont conduits à voir dans ces îles fluviale une métaphore de la déstabilisation significative, renversant largement les idées préconçues sur les rivières, la vulnérabilité, l'adaptation, etc. Le recours à la « volatilité » comme concept théorique est fécond dans la perception de ces espaces insulaires spécifiques comme offrant un au-delà du vulnérable vers des espaces de vie qui sont bien viables, au contraire.

The technology  of adding manufacturing or 3D printing is one of the main issues in the concept of technology 4.0. The construction design of the 3D printing machine and the deflection of its construction significantly affect the accuracy of the dimension and shape the printed product. The study aims to obtain a construction design of a cartesian type 3 D printing machine based on fused deformation modelling, and to verify the maximum value of the deflection of the machine axis. The study method used VDI222, calculation analysis, and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulation using CAE Solidworks software to verify the strength and deflection of the machine design construction. The study results show the construction design of 3D printing machine has been obtained according to the requirement. The verified maximum deflection value is 0.036 mm, hence the maximum error in the dimensions and shape of the printed product for each layer will still be within the standard tolerance. In addition, its maximum deflection value is verified within the radial clearance value of each determined machine axis bearing.

The industrialization of papaya generates a large amount of organic waste, which is rich in antioxidant compounds, especially carotenoids. The purpose of the present article was to study the influence of carotenoid pigments extracted from the papaya epicarp as a partial substitute for nitrites in Frankfurt sausages. Four concentrations of lipid extract of papaya epicarp were analyzed in said sausages. While the control sample had 0 % substitution, 25 %, 50 % and 75 % substitution of nitrite was added to the other samples. The sausages were kept at 6 ± 2 °C for 30 days. The chemical composition, pH, water holding capacity, water activity, emulsion stability, color coordinates, texture profile and sensory appearance were analyzed, and for the sausage that presented the best physicochemical parameters, the stability in the time at 0, 10, 20 and 30 days of storage. It was obtained that adding the papaya epicarp extract to a concentration of 25 % did not affect the physicochemical parameters. In addition, the texture and color characteristics, as well as the sensory evaluation showed the best results for said concentration, guaranteeing stability up to a period of 30 days of storage under vacuum packing conditions and under refrigeration (6 ± 2 °C). A new alternative is proposed to minimize the negative action of nitrites in analyzed Frankfurt sausages, replacing them with antioxidant compounds obtained from a raw material of vegetable origin.

Does the Right to Life include the Right to Die?
Authors: Dinu Catalina G.
Published: May 2023

The right to life is a fundamental and absolute human right, which, through its importance, goes beyond the sphere of personal interest, having relevance for the whole society. In a generalized context, it includes in its structure all the other rights, but also duties recognized to man. The right to life is portrayed as having two dimensions: a minimum content and a maximum content. Stricto sensu, the right to life protects the human being against harm to his or her bodily integrity by another person, and is therefore primarily a prohibition on killing another being. Lato sensu, the right to life is an expression that designates the set of rights that are attributed to living beings in general and people in particular. It is important to determine when the protection of the right to life begins, which in various laws of the European States leads to the criminalization or noncriminalization of the act of abortion and also to the determination of the content of this right, in order to determine whether it includes the right to die. Marginally, the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights has ruled on this alleged right, challenging its existence, but not unanimously. What are the limits of this right if it were recognized? Is there such a right or not, and if so, can it be accepted that death is only one side of the right to life? In the following analysis we will try to identify certain questions to which we should look for an answer, in order to reach a conclusion: Does the right to life include the right to die?

The purpose of this study is to conduct systematic literature on mathematics learning innovation using google classroom. The research method is the SLR (Systematic Literature Review) method. Data collection is done by documenting and reviewing all articles related to Mathematics Learning and Google Classroom published in brackets in 2019-2020. Based on a search of various articles on the Google Scholar database, twelve (12) articles were obtained. The results of this study are a discussion of the findings that occur in the article. Based on the research conducted, the results of this study indicate that (1) learning mathematics using google classroom has a significant effect on learning so that learning is effective, characterized by high student participation and various positive attitudes that exist in students. (2) learning mathematics using google classroom is very good for learning outcomes and learning motivation of an educator. But it still has to be improved considering that there are still many learning facilities and infrastructure that do not support it, as well as abstract mathematical objectsneeded to click the link and watch the videos in YouTube
Utility of DNA Methylation as a Biomarker in Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease

Published: May 2023

Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation have been implicated in a number of diseases including cancer, heart disease, autoimmune disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases. While it is recognized that DNA methylation is tissue-specific, a limitation for many studies is the ability to sample the tissue of interest, which is why there is a need for a proxy tissue such as blood, that is reflective of the methylation state of the target tissue. In the last decade, DNA methylation has been utilized in the design of epigenetic clocks, which aim to predict an individual’s biological age based on an algorithmically defined set of CpGs. A number of studies have found associations between disease and/or disease risk with increased biological age, adding weight to the theory of increased biological age being linked with disease processes. Hence, this review takes a closer look at the utility of DNA methylation as a biomarker in aging and disease, with a particular focus on Alzheimer’s disease.
Progression of Blood-Brain Barrier Leakage in Patients with Alzheimer’s Disease as Measured with the Cerebrospinal Fluid/Plasma Albumin Ratio Over Time
Authors: Musaeus Christian Sandøe , Gleerup Helena Sophia , Hasselbalch Steen Gregers , Waldemar Gunhild , Simonsen Anja Hviid
Published: May 2023

Background:

Studies have found a disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but there is little evidence of the changes in the BBB over time. The cerebrospinal fluid’s (CSF) protein concentration can be used as an indirect measurement for the permeability of the BBB using the CSF/plasma albumin quotient (Q-Alb) or total CSF protein.

Objective:

In the current study, we wanted to investigate the changes in Q-Alb in patients with AD over time.

Methods:

A total of 16 patients diagnosed with AD, who had at least two lumbar punctures performed, were included in the current study.

Results:

The difference in Q-Alb over time did not show a significant change. However, Q-Alb increased over time if the time interval was > 1 year between the measurements. No significant associations between Q-Alb and age, Mini-Mental State Examination, or AD biomarkers were found.

Conclusion:

The increase in Q-Alb suggests that there is an increased leakage through the BBB, which may become more prominent as the disease progresses. This may be a sign of progressive underlying vascular pathology, even in patients with AD without major vascular lesions. More studies are needed to further understand the role of BBB integrity in patients with AD over time and the association with the progression of the disease.
Current Diagnostic Pathways for Alzheimer’s Disease: A Cross-Sectional Real-World Study Across Six Countries
Authors: Roth Sophie , Burnie Nerida , Suridjan Ivonne , Yan Jessie T. , Carboni Margherita
Published: May 2023

Background:

Diagnostic pathways for patients presenting with cognitive complaints may vary across geographies.

Objective:

To describe diagnostic pathways of patients presenting with cognitive complaints across 6 countries.

Methods:

This real-world, cross-sectional study analyzed chart-extracted data from healthcare providers (HCPs) for 6,744 patients across China, France, Germany, Spain, UK, and the US.

Results:

Most common symptoms at presentation were cognitive (memory/amnestic; 89.86%), followed by physical/behavioral (87.13%). Clinical/cognitive tests were used in > 95%, with Mini-Mental State Examination being the most common cognitive test (79.0%). Blood tests for APOE ɛ4/other mutations, or to rule out treatable causes, were used in half of the patients. Clinical and cognitive tests were used at higher frequency at earlier visits, and amyloid PET/CSF biomarker testing at higher frequency at later visits. The latter were ordered at low rates even by specialists (across countries, 5.7% to 28.7% for amyloid PET and 5.0% to 27.3% for CSF testing). Approximately half the patients received a diagnosis (52.1% of which were Alzheimer’s disease [AD]). Factors that influenced risk of not receiving a diagnosis were HCP type (higher for primary care physicians versus specialists) and region (highest in China and Germany).

Conclusion:

These data highlight variability in AD diagnostic pathways across countries and provider types. About 45% of patients are referred/told to ‘watch and wait’. Improvements can be made in the use of amyloid PET and CSF testing. Efforts should focus on further defining biomarkers for those at risk for AD, and on dismantling barriers such low testing capacity and reimbursement challenges.
