Type 2 diabetes may increase the risk of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) through Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related and vascular pathology also nonamnestic MCI (naMCI) mechanisms. We examined association type with (MCI) subtype (aMCI naMCI) overall by sex.Participants were Olmsted County, Minnesota residents (70 years older) enrolled in a prospective, population-based study. At baseline every 15 months thereafter, participants evaluated using Clinical Dementia Rating scale,...
Abstract Background This study evaluated an early warning, alert and response system for a crisis-affected population in Doolo zone, Somali Region, Ethiopia, 2019–2021, with history of epidemics outbreak-prone diseases. To adequately cover area populated by semi-nomadic pastoralist, or livestock herding, sparse access to healthcare facilities, the surveillance included four components: health facility indicator-based surveillance, community indicator- event-based alerts from other actors...
A typical strategy for identifying children with elevated blood lead levels (BLL) is to use a test on capillary sample as screening tool and then perform confirmatory venous following an screen. However, tests samples are prone false-positive results, which affect surveillance estimates of the prevalence BLL.We sought measure risk results in based various potential predictors.We analyzed aged 0 6 years tested during 2011 2017 Minnesota. false positive was defined at least 5 μg/dL, followed...
In March 2016, the state health departments of Wisconsin and Minnesota learned three shipyard workers with blood lead levels (BLLs) more than 40 μg/dL. An investigation was conducted to determine extent risk factors for exposure.We defined a case as an elevated BLL or equal 5 μg/dL in worker. Workers were interviewed regarding their symptoms personal protective equipment (PPE) use.Of 357 workers, 65.0% had received 1 test. Among tested 171 (73.7%) BLLmax who respirator training fit testing...

INTRODUCTION The Somali Region is one of the least developed regions Ethiopia, with low coverage healthcare services and recurrent disease outbreaks, floods, malnutrition emergencies. MSF has been providing medical assistance in Doolo Zone, Region, since 2007. Following multiple outbreaks 2017, shifted focus to work primarily on early outbreak detection provision a timely response. In 2019, established “Tea Team surveillance team”; this combines health facility data that from community...
