Article Abstract
Sixteen sifakas (11 Propithecus verreauxi coquereli, 2 Propithecus verreauxi verreauxi form majori, and 3 Propithecus tattersalli) were videotaped as they fed on leaves in an arboreal context. The hand used to feed and the hand used to maintain postural stability was coded. For each subject, the lateral bias of the hand used to feed was opposite the hand used in postural support. Seven sifakas displayed no bias for feeding or posture-related hand use, 7 sifakas displayed significant feeding-related reach preferences for pulling branches to the mouth (5 left- and 2 right-hand preferences), and 9 sifakas exhibited significant hand preferences for postural support (2 left-, 7 right-hand preferent). Although these data do not strongly support the postural origins theory of behavioral lateralization, the modal preference pattern for sifakas that displayed significant hand preferences for posture and feeding involve a left bias for feeding and a right bias for postural support. s reserved).

Spiritual Support for People Affected by Dementia: A Scoping Review.
Dementia (London)
September 2025
Department of Public Health and Primary Care, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands.
As a life-limiting illness, dementia requires a holistic approach to care, where spiritual support plays a crucial role in helping individuals and their caregivers find meaning and solace. Our aim was to systematically map the research conducted on psychosocial interventions developed to provide spiritual support for people living with dementia and their caregivers from diagnosis and across the disease trajectory. A scoping review was conducted to explore the breadth of research on 'spiritual support' in dementia care, encompassing interventions, service delivery models, programs, toolkits, approaches, and activities.

Neurocrit Care
September 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
Over the last decade, there has been an increased focus on incorporating palliative care principles into the practice of neurocritical care and emergency medicine (EM). In this article, we describe three different roles that EM clinicians can fill as they initiate the provision of primary neuropalliative care to neurocritically ill patients: the stage setter, the spokesperson, and the screener. As the stage setter, EM clinicians start to build trust with the family by "breaking bad news"; encouraging them to consider the patient's values, preferences, functional baseline, and directives; and providing support to the family during this emotional time as they hand them over to the admitting team who will continue this conversation.
