Mashup Score: 35Vaccine Safety Debunked: Hotez Tackles Autism Myths on CNN - 3 hour(s) ago
On CNN, Professor Peter Hotez debunked the myths linking vaccines to autism, discussing the neurodevelopmental processes of autism occurring before birth. This reiteration comes amidst persistent claims by figures like Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who have suggested further investigation into the debunked connection. The issue remains relevant due to ongoing anti-vaccination sentiment and legislative proposals in several U.S. states that could lower vaccination rates.

Mashup Score: 3Anticonvulsant Drug Shortages – Epilepsy Ontario - 1 day(s) ago
Drug shortages are an ongoing global problem that cannot go ignored. Canadians have been facing shortages of all kinds of prescription drugs, including medications used to treat epilepsy. Sudden discontinuation of epilepsy medication, or suddenly changing epilepsy drugs, can cause breakthrough seizures and life-threatening status epilepticus (prolonged seizures). Changes in epilepsy medications are normally made slowly over many weeks, to gradually taper off one drug and introduce another. If a drug

Mashup Score: 9
Background Previous studies suggest short-term cognitive benefits of physical activity occurring minutes to hours after exercise. Whether these benefits persist the following day and the role of sleep is unclear. We examined associations of accelerometer-assessed physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep with next-day cognitive performance in older adults. Methods British adults aged 50-83 years (N = 76) without evidence of cognitive impairment or dementia wore accelerometers for eight days, and took daily cognitive tests of attention, memory, psychomotor speed, executive function, and processing speed. Physical behaviour (time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [MVPA], light physical activity [LPA], and sedentary behaviour [SB]) and sleep characteristics (overnight sleep duration, time spent in rapid eye movement [REM] sleep and slow wave sleep [SWS]) were extracted from accelerometers, with sleep stages derived using a novel polysomnography-validated machine lear
