Canids originally evolved in North America, presenting a compelling story of shifting climates, paleogeographies, and both successes and failures in adapting to these changes. Species evolve-new ones arrive on the scene and established ones become extinct. The dire wolf (Aenocyon dirus) is one of the most legendary of the extinct canids and is the most basal member of the crown group of large dogs (Canina) that includes the extant gray wolf (Canis lupus).

This study examined whether caregivers of male or female patients with epilepsy differ in perceived burden, social support, and coping mechanisms. In a cross-sectional design conducted at a tertiary neuropsychiatric hospital, 60 caregivers (30 per group) completed the Family Burden Interview Schedule (FBIS), the Social Support Questionnaire (SSQ), and the Ways of Coping Questionnaire (WCQ). Caregivers of female patients reported greater financial strain and more pronounced impacts on mental and physical health, yet they also perceived higher levels of social support.

Background: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) predominantly manifests with gait disturbances, yet clinical assessments are vulnerable to confirmation bias, particularly post-shunt surgery. Blinded video evaluations are a method to enhance objectivity in gait assessment, but their reliability has never been systematically investigated. The aim was to evaluate the inter-rater reliability of blinded gait assessments in iNPH patients and to investigate how these assessments correlate with the Hellström iNPH scale and patient-reported health status following shunt surgery.
