TL;DR: Estrogen plus progestin therapy increased the risk for probable dementia in postmenopausal women aged 65 years or older and did not prevent mild cognitive impairment in these women, supporting the conclusion that the risks of estrogen plus progESTin outweigh the benefits.

Contributions of memory circuits to language: the declarative/procedural model
TL;DR: It is proposed that "language" disorders, such as specific language impairment and non-fluent and fluent aphasia, may be profitably viewed as impairments primarily affecting one or the other brain system, and suggested a new neurocognitive framework for the study of lexicon and grammar.

Differential aging of the brain: Patterns, cognitive correlates and modifiers
Naftali Raz,Karen M. Rodrigue +1 more
TL;DR: This review of the extant literature on age-related differences and changes in brain structure, including postmortem and noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies, surveys the evidence from volumetry, diffusion-tensor imaging, and evaluations of white matter hyperintensities and speculate on several proposed mechanisms of differential brain aging.
Journal Article
Multiple Actions of Steroid Hormones—A Focus on Rapid, Nongenomic Effects
TL;DR: This review pays particular attention to the current knowledge and important results on the mechanisms of nongenomic steroid action and the modes of action are discussed in relation to their potential physiological or pathophysiological relevance and with regard to a cross-talk between genomic and nongnomic responses.

TL;DR: Data support the involvement of ApoE ϵ4 in the pathogenesis of late-onset familial and sporadic AD and suggest it may operate as a susceptibility gene (risk factor) for the clinical expression of AD.

TL;DR: A magnetic head drum includes an upper section that carries a set of magnetic heads and rotates at a preselected head speed, and a stationary lower section that is characterized by a reduced diameter step formed along the tape wrap path thereover.
