Introduction: Although HIV infection can now be kept under control in almost all people living with HIV (PLWH), these individuals are prone to developing several non-AIDS complications due to chronic immune impairments, such as HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). Unfortunately, no marker has been identified to predict these conditions, but there is growing interest in neurotrophins, such as nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Methods: In this pilot study, we evaluated …

From threat to safety: A trauma-informed framework for de-escalation in dementia care

Gregg Stevenson

Behaviours that challenge (BtC) in people living with dementia are frequently managed through pharmacological approaches, despite guidance recommending non-pharmacological interventions as first-line treatment. Existing approaches, including Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), provide valuable frameworks for understanding behavioural escalation and informing person-centred care. However, the neuropsychological mechanisms through which perceived threat, emotional vulnerability, and prior life experiences contribute to …

Before, Behind and Beyond: Life Stories and Identity in Dementia Care

Tove Harnett, Glenn Möllergren

ABSTRACT Life stories are widely promoted in person‐centred dementia care as tools to preserve the identity of the ‘person behind the dementia’. However, as cognitive decline progresses, staff often face dilemmas when current expressions of preference appear to contradict a person's documented past, for example, a devout Muslim requesting pork or a lifelong teetotaller showing interest in alcohol. The aim of this study is to explore how dementia care staff reason about situations in which life story information con …

Acute total sleep deprivation transiently increases plasma total tau but not plasma P-tau181 in healthy adults

Beiyu Zhao, Meng Wei, Suhang Shang, Ling Gao, Shan Wei, Liangjun Dang, Jie Liu, Chen Chen, Yanbo Li, Jin Wang, Fan Gao, Qiumin Qu

Background Sleep deprivation is a modifiable risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Plasma amyloid-β (Aβ) and phosphorylated tau (P-tau) are closely related to cerebral AD pathology and serve as peripheral biomarkers. Our previous work showed that acute sleep deprivation elevated plasma Aβ 40 in healthy adults. Here we conducted an exploratory analysis to examine the effects of sleep deprivation and subsequent recovery on plasma total tau (T-tau) and P-tau181 levels. Methods Twenty healthy adults underwent 24 h …

A multi‑scale research project assessing the positive and negative impacts of alien species on biodiversity and people

Zoé Bescond--Michel, Giovanni Vimercati, Matheo Pallo-Robles, Selene Escobar-Rámirez, Manuel Mejía-Toro, Gonzalo Rivas-Torres, Pieter van `t Hof, Sven Bacher

The human-mediated introduction of alien species across biogeographic barriers has resulted in multiple and diverse environmental and socio-economic impacts worldwide. While these impacts are often negative, such as biodiversity loss and livelihood harm, some alien species offer benefits for native species or people. This complexity highlights the need for standardized, evidence-based bidirectional impact assessments to inform conservation management and policy. To address this, we launched a four-year project in 2 …

Intrinsic and status dignity in social work with people living with learning disabilities: Rethinking self-sovereignty, vulnerability, and human worth

Richard Murphy

Abstract In social work, dignity is usually considered as a person’s worth and what it demands. This can be drawn on to argue for the development of rights for people living with learning disabilities who experience exclusion and social disadvantage. However, normative ideas of flourishing can become a means of judging the worth of a life. When this happens, dignity becomes a status dependent on external criteria. Current approaches to dignity identify it with ideas of self-sovereignty. These disadvantages affect p …

Reformulating and Reassessing Solidarity’s Downstream Effects: New Panel Evidence on People of Color During the 2024 Presidential Campaign

Efrén Pérez, Linda R. Tropp, Yuen J. Huo, Seth K. Goldman, Tatishe Nteta

Mounting evidence shows that shared identity among people of color (PoC) heightens inter-minority solidarity, which yields downstream support for pro-Black (affirmative action), pro-Latino (undocumented immigration), and pro-Asian (high-skill immigration) policies. Previous research detects this mediation pattern in one-shot experiments. This paper evaluates solidarity’s downstream consequences in real-life politics by leveraging longitudinal data spanning the 2024 US presidential campaign. By reformulating solidar …

Rabindranath Tagore: Poet of the soil and people

Dr. Sutapa Saha

In Rabindranath’s view, a human being is not merely a physical entity; within lies the ‘religion of man’ — or humanity itself. He portrayed the lives of the exploited and the neglected with profound reverence in his literature. Throughout his life, he sought to recognize and honor that enduring human aspiration — rooted in truth — towards the overlooked masses of his homeland. He was not merely a ‘World Poet’ (Visva-Kabi); in the truest sense, he was a poet of the soil and its people. The nature of Bengal, the joys …

THE VISIBLE TRANSFORMATION OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: PEOPLE & CULTURE

Pınar Sarp Hüseyin, Selçuk Yeke

Business life, employee profiles, globalization, and technological developments are reshaping human resources management (HRM). The traditional HRM approach is no longer sufficient to meet contemporary employee expectations. One of the most notable shifts is the evolution of HRM into People & Culture (P&C). In Turkey, this transformation remains limited, with only a few organizations having completed the transition. This study investigates the antecedents of this structural and cultural transformation and the reaso …
