While it is not the first Ukrainian attack in Crimea since the war began, it is the most significant, not only because it took place some 110 miles (177 kilometers) behind the front lines, but because it took place in front of thousands of tourists....

To read our review of last week’s Westworld episode, “Metanoia,” click here. With Westworld getting so big with its robotic apocalypse, and even bigger with the ultimate end point for all of humanity, there was no story left… but to go back to the park. Shrink it all back to something smaller. Give us Westworld again. It was almost comical how far the story traveled beyond the park of the first two seasons (while still keeping it in the title), so much so that this season and the previous one featured new parks, just to make things feel tied up....

Bei der Parkinson-Krankheit werden Alpha-Synuclein-Proteine ​​im Gehirn abgelagert. Die Hoffnung, mit Antikörpern, die Alpha-Synuclein binden, den Krankheitsverlauf aufhalten zu können, hat sich bislang zerschlagen. Zwei klinische Studien zeigen enttäuschende Ergebnisse. Zwei Alpha-Synuclein-bindende Antikörper enttäuschen in klinischen Studien: Weder der Antikörper Cinpanemab noch Prasinezumab zeigten signifikante Wirkungen bei Patienten mit Parkinson im Frühstadium. Weder war bildgebend ein Abbau der Proteinablagerungen zu sehen, noch konnte das Fortschreiten der Erkrankung verzögert werden. Die Ergebnisse der beiden randomisierten, Placebo-kontrollierten Phase-2-Studien wurden letzte Woche im New England Journal of Medicine/NEJM veröffentlicht....
