Summary: White matter dementia (WMD) is a concept that emphasizes the importance of white matter pathology in cognitive dysfunction and dementia. The introduction of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has played a crucial role in recognizing WMD. Neuropsychological studies have identified cognitive slowing and executive dysfunction as the main clinical presentation of WMD. White matter pathology is also associated with neurodegenerative diseases and has potential implications for clinical practice, including preventive measures and treatments that focus on white matter restoration and plasticity.

Summary: This review mainly summarizes and discusses the workflow of proteogenomics, its applications in cancer research, and the SWOT analysis in cancer research. Proteogenomics clarifies the functional consequences of unannotated genomic abnormalities, identifies driver genes and novel therapeutic targets, and accelerates the development of precision oncology.

Summary: This paper reviews the history of artificial viscosity, starting from its origin in previously unpublished documents, continuing to current research, and ending with recent work on its physical basis that suggests new directions for improvement. The main focus is on finite volume methods and finite scale theory, emphasizing the recognition of the finiteness of scale and measurement.

Summary: YIMBYism, rooted in laissez-faire liberalism, lacks empirical validation, embraces a categorical fallacy, embodies moral failure, exemplifies the arrogance of policy expertise, reveals the maturation of neoliberalism, and demonstrates the dominance of power politics in truth production in the contemporary moment.

Summary: In 1977, Woese and Fox discovered a new microbial domain, Archaea, and later found that they were not only limited to extreme environments but also abundant in oxygen-rich marine waters. Subsequent studies revealed the widespread presence of marine planktonic archaea, their unexpected symbiotic associations, physiologies, and global abundance.

Summary: As COVID-19 transitions from a pandemic to an endemic infection, strategies for prevention and treatment have changed. Monoclonal antibody therapies lost effectiveness due to resistant viral variants, while oral antiviral medications and systemic corticosteroids became the main treatment options. Additional immune-modulating therapies may also be considered for hospitalized patients.

Summary: Using neuroanatomical investigations in the macaque, Deepak Pandya and his colleagues have established the framework for auditory cortex organization, with subdivisions into core and belt areas. This research is of great importance for understanding the functional anatomy and physiology of auditory cortex in primates, including humans, as well as the cognitive aspects of speech and language.

Summary: Most diseases are related to food patterns, and one common disease is celiac disease, which is triggered by the ingestion of gluten. A gluten-free diet has been the main method for improving the condition of patients with celiac disease for many years. However, complete avoidance of gluten is difficult nowadays due to the availability of wheat and processed foods containing even more gluten. There is a need for alternative therapies to control gluten consumption and alleviate gastrointestinal symptoms.

Summary: The term chimera has been used to describe experimental composite plants and animals since the early twentieth century. Composite animals and embryos, involving the transfer of cells from different species, have been fundamental to biomedical research. In the twenty-first century, composite animals have taken on an institutional life, opening up an opportunity to redefine the differences between humans and other animals and reconsider the governance of human health research.
