She says some pro-abortion rights voters would rather stay home than cast a ballot for a candidate who waffles on abortion. “I think it will harm anyone that wants to get pro-life votes,” says anti-abortion rights activist Janine Hansen, an Independent American who says she’d personally prefer state to federal action. Wade and the prospect of a Republican-controlled Congress.
#LIFE FINAL PRINT COVER UPDATE#
This update to the Commission presents advances and discusses persisting and new challenges in prevention, clinical care, and research into TBI.Nevada’s top Republican candidates, some endorsed by national anti-abortion rights forces, are eschewing a chance to potentially slash the 24-week limit on terminating pregnancies in Nevada by nine weeks, a position that could confound pro-abortion rights voters energized by the repeal of Roe v. However, many of these advances have yet to achieve routine clinical implementation, and major issues persist, particularly in the care of patients with TBI in low-income and middle-income countries. There has clearly been substantial progress in the past 5 years. Of all common neurological disorders, traumatic brain injury (TBI) has the highest incidence and poses a substantial challenge to public health. TBI is increasingly being recognised as a chronic disease with long-term consequences, such as an increased risk of late-onset neurodegeneration. The first Lancet Neurology Commission on TBI, published in 2017, provided expert recommendations to reduce the global burden of TBI, calling for concerted action. The Commission provided the foundation for subsequent research, informed strategies of major funding organisation, and has been used to brief legislators and inform policy.
Implementing these solutions will ensure future outbreak research and actionable outcomes will be robust, accurate, and equitable. The solutions include standardising data capture and codes, mandating adherence to reporting guidelines developed for modelling studies, ensuring datasets are representative across a range of sociodemographic factors, and encouraging better communication of findings to the public via a sustainable information-sharing system.
#LIFE FINAL PRINT COVER SERIES#
This Series in The Lancet Digital Health explores these challenges and identifies potential solutions that can be applied to future infectious disease outbreaks.
But these efforts have been hampered by challenges to collecting and sharing real-world data and developing accurate forecasting models. Treatments are emerging for optic neuropathies, including immunotherapies and genetic therapies.ĭuring the global COVID-19 pandemic, researchers and clinicians have investigated how best to leverage technology and big data to provide virtual clinical care, model the effect of health policies on transmission, identify novel therapeutic treatments, and more. Also reviewed in the Series, a unifying feature in the pathophysiology of hereditary disorders of the optic nerve is mitochondrial dysfunction. Early clinical recognition of optic neuritis is, therefore, important for prognosis and treatment. Also reviewed in this Series, new evidence shows that optic neuritis can frequently indicate autoimmune neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis and the recently recognised disease categories of aquaporin-4 antibody-associated neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder and myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease. Multimodality optic nerve imaging-including fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, and MRI-has greatly advanced the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with optic neuropathies. This Series provides an update on the clinical, imaging, and laboratory findings that differentiate these disorders, allowing clinicians to focus their diagnostic studies and optimise treatments. Optic neuropathies can reflect a wide range of pathophysiologies, both acquired and inherited.
