Sleeping Disorders May Signal Risk Of Parkinson's Disease, Dementia: Study
New Delhi: Sleeping disorders may act as an early indicator of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease and Lewy body dementia (LBD) -- a type of dementia, according to a study. The study focused on patients with Rapid eye movement behaviour disorder -- a sleep disorder where individuals physically act out their dreams during the rapid eye movement (REM) stage of sleep. "Normally, when we're asleep and dreaming, our muscles are paralysed, but around age 50, some people become very agitated during sleep and start punching, kicking and screaming," said Shady Rahayel, a medical professor at Université de Montréal in Canada. Unlike sleepwalking, which occurs during slow-wave sleep, RBD occurs during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, he added, and it affects people of middle age. In the study, published in the journal eBioMedicine, the researchers said that nearly 90 per cent of people with the disorder will go on to develop either Parkinson's disease or LBD. "RBD is an early warning sign that certain mechanisms in the brain are no longer working as they should," said the team. "The people with RBD who come to see us are in good health... but of those who subsequently develop a disease, half will have Parkinson's and the other half LBD." Rahayel explained that with LBD, the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer's, "patients are no longer able to function in everyday life". In addition to dementia, "they will have Parkinson's-like symptoms, vivid visual hallucinations, fluctuating attention and other symptoms." For the study, the team used data from 1,276 MRI scans of people at risk of, or with, Parkinson's disease or LBD, and also of healthy people. Using machine learning and computational models, the researchers identified two trajectories of brain atrophy progression. LBD seems to be associated with brain atrophy that begins in the cortex and then spreads to the interior of the brain, while in Parkinson's the atrophy progresses from the interior to the exterior of the brain. The team next aims to investigate the factors that lead to this deterioration in the cortex, such as vascular lesions, the effects of drugs, and of lifestyle choices. "Now that we have identified these new progression patterns, our goal is to be able to determine from an MRI whether a person has one of them so that we can provide the best possible care," said Rahayel.

Hailey Bieber's LBD? A Little Billion Dollar Dress, Of Course - Here's How To Wear One Now
The LBD has a new meaning in the hands of Hailey Bieber. The beauty entrepreneur, who announced the sale of her business, Rhode, just yesterday, stepped out to celebrate the news in Los Angeles wearing what we might have once called a Little Black Dress. Today, however, we're christening it in a new moniker: The Little Billion Dollar Dress. FIND OUT MORE AT ELLE COLLECTIVE Our new name for the classic Saint Laurent mini comes directly from the business of being Bieber as, pending approvals, she will sell Rhode to Elf Beauty for a cool $1billion. Should things go ahead as anticipated then it'll be one of the biggest beauty acquisitions in recent years. An impressive feat considering the brand was only birthed in 2022. Even though Rhode, the purveyor of the world's most photographed lip balm, moves into its new chapter, Bieber will still captain its ship to become its founder, chief creative officer and head of innovation. Why have one title when you can have all three? '[The position] expands my role into the world of beauty even more, and I just want to continue being a force in the space globally,' Bieber told Vogue Business. It's easy to understand why Bieber might have dressed as she did for dinner as the news of the sale went expectedly viral on social media. An LBD has long been a signifier of a celebration and good times and boy did she have much to celebrate last night. Yet, for all its connotations as being the party girl's uniform of choice there was still a midweek restraint to this business boss' approach. Over the top diamonds and accessories were abandoned for a starkness that the boardroom would appreciate. The strapless style was paired with razor-sharp Saint Laurent stilettos and a stealth timepiece on the wrist. That being said, a pair of sunglasses remained intact to prove that though Bieber might be the big boss now, she's still an LA It-girl at heart. To take on Bieber's approach would be to streamline a classic in a way that feels fresh. While the desire to over play a piece as simple as this can be alluring, pulling back can add great fashion kudos. So, choosing a great pair of shoes (ideally pumps with a striking toe front) and simple jewellery shall more than suffice. Freelancer

Miley Cyrus's LBD Look For Something Beautiful Hits All The Right Notes
If anyone knows how to bring some rock 'n' roll energy to even the simplest outfits, it's Miley Cyrus. The singer and actor recently took to Instagram to share a classic look in a little black dress she wore to the release party of her new album, Something Beautiful. Cyrus exudes effortless elegance in a sleeveless black mini dress from the MM6 line by Parisian haute couture house Maison Margiela. The cut of the LBD is classic with a high neckline that embraces a timeless, mod-inspired silhouette. The dress fits her body perfectly, making it look flattering and refined. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Miley Cyrus (@mileycyrus) She completed the look with Tabi Ballerina Flats by Maison Margiela. Like the dress, the shoes are simple and understated, adding a subtle and graceful touch - ideal for the intimate, live performance vibe of the intimate event, hosted by TikTok at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles. Cyrus styled her hair in her signature long, loose waves with volume and a slightly tousled finish. The waves added a romantic, rock 'n' roll edge that matches her personal brand. Her makeup is soft and glowing, with hints of bronze across her face. A nude lip, defined brows, subtle brown eyeshadow, and kohl along the waterline made her blue-grey eyes shine even brighter. For accessories, Cyrus kept it minimal and chic with simple anklets. Her tattoos served as the only other adornment - beautifully contrasting with the simplicity of her dress. The outfit blended seamlessly with the intimate, warm-toned lighting and vintage decor, which added a nostalgic glamour to the scene. It struck a perfect balance for an event that's meant to feel personal and emotional.

Best Little Black Dress (LBD) Moments on the Red Carpet: Photos
We've seen fashion trends come and go, from the iconic 2000s tracksuit to chevron patterns. When a new trend comes by, Hollywood strikes while the iron's hot, but without fail, there's always been one trend that everyone and anyone can rock effortlessly. Chances are, you have a go-to in your own closet. That's right; we're talking about the little black dress, or LBD. Designer Stella McCartney once said, 'A little black dress is something to rely on. To fill you with confidence and ease. To have an attitude that is pure and effortless, yet sexy and classy.' And she's right; a little black dress is the one trend people can rely on, and over the years, some of our favorite stars have not only rocked the LBD trend, but redefined it as their own. Instead of a simple little black dress, these stars have added their own twists to it, from making it a suit dress to adding some extra poof to it. From Julia Roberts' academic-chic dress to Elizabeth Hurley's iconic safety pin dress, there have been quite a few iconic LBDs on the red carpet (and we still think about them daily!) Now, of course, the ultimate LBD was Princess Diana's revenge dress, but right now, we're focusing on the red carpet LBD that made our jaws drop (especially at the 80th Golden Globes!) See our favorites below! A version of this article was originally published on Dec 2022. More from SheKnows Mila Kunis Redefined Little Black Dresses at Her First Premiere in 2 Years Best of SheKnows 16 Movies & TV Shows That Are Excessively Violent Toward Women 90 Incredible Shows on Netflix You Should Be Watching Right Now Everything Harry & Meghan Have Done Since Leaving the Royal Family Natalie Portman turned heads in this ornate LBD from Christian Dior at the Arco Photocall during The 78th Cannes Film Festival at Palais des Festivals.

At the Critics Choice Awards in 2024, Ava Phillippe wore a bedazzled Monique Lhuillier mini-dress. At the Critics Choice Awards in 2024, Kaley Cuoco put a classic, vintage spin on the LBD trend with this Christian Dior number. Salma Hayek kept things simple with a formfitting black Balenciaga dress, but paired it with matching baby pink heels and bag. For the 2023 Baby2Baby Gala, Zooey Deschanel added her fun flair with this dark, velvet Patou dress. Jordana Brewster attended the Baby2Baby Gala in this flirty LBD from Monique Lhuillier! Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's daughter Apple Martin looked ultra-chic during her mom's launch of Goop's newest Youth-Boost Peptide Serum in the Hamptons. Apple paired this blazer-inspired mini-dress with black heels, a slicked-back ponytail and a bright pink purse. So cute! At the 2023 Academy of Country Music Awards, Kimberly Perry looked as gorgeous as can be in this cutout, chainlink silver accented and caped LBD. Margaret Qualley wowed in this lacy vintage Chanel mini-dress at the 2023 Met Gala. Pamela Anderson gave the ultimate LBD twist when she wore this beaded lace catsuit and a black blazer on top at the Mugler H&M Launch Event. Euphoria star Chloe Cherry looked stunning in this tulle dress from Alessandra Rich at the 31st Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party. Jessica Alba turned heads in her gothic ensemble at the Balmain Womenswear Fall Winter 2023-2024 show for Paris Fashion Week. On March 1, she rocked a sensational ensemble, with the wrapped, asymmetrical dress being the star of the look. Phoebe Tonkin stole the show yet again with another LBD, this time at W Magazine's Annual Best Performances Party! She wowed everyone in this glittering black YSL mini-dress. Janelle Monáe's daring Dundas LBD was truly a sight to see! Taylor Russell's incredibly-chic mini leather dress from Schiaparelli was definitely one of our favorite looks from W Magazine's Annual Best Performances Party. Daisy Edgar-Jones's sleek and chic mini-dress was proof that less is more! Olivia Rodrigo rocked the color black all throughout the 2023 Grammys, but we're seriously in love with this cutout sequined LBD she wore for the after party. Phoebe Tonkin looked like the pinnacle of chicness and glamour in this LBD from Emilia Wickstead, which she paired with Tiffany & Co. jewelry for the 2023 G'Day USA Arts Gala. Get ready for your jaws to drop because Anne Hathaway put a sparkling spin on the LBD trend for the Sundance Film Festival. She wowed in a black Versace dress, with dark tights and matching black Versace boots. Fatal Affair star Nia Long rocked this feather-trimmed LBD Atlantis Royal Grand Reveal Weekend event! Margot Robbie turned heads as she showed off her personal, elaborate style in this not-so-little black dress from Alaïa at the Babylon premiere. Who could forget when Mila Kunis made her first red carpet premiere in over two years in early 2022 in this all-black mini-dress from Carolina Herrera? She redefined the LBD trend by arriving in a suit-dress, which had a tulle sash wrapped around the front and poofed out in the back. Angelina Jolie came to wow when she arrived in this sparkling Emporio Armani mini-dress at the Los Angeles premiere of Salt in 2010. Paris Jackson always shakes things up on the red carpet, showing off her ever-so-bold style, and this LBD she wore in Oct 2022 for the Givenchy Womenswear Spring/Summer 2023 show is one of our absolute favorites from her. The 'Lighthouse' singer previously told LVR about her eclectic personal style, saying, 'I have had the same style since high school: a combination of Sixties, Seventies, and Nineties.' Julia Roberts always understands the assignment, and for the premiere of Jesus Henry Christ, she kept it academic-chic in this white-collared Victoria, Victoria Beckham mini-dress. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley also brought the sparkle with her LBD from Saint Laurent at The 2018 BRIT Awards. But what made this dress so sensational was the tulle bow detailing on the collar and her matching black accessories. Probably one of the most iconic LBDs in red carpet history was when Cindy Crawford turned heads in this form-fitting Herve Leger number at Vogue Magazine's 100th Anniversary Celebration in 1992. Now, this isn't exactly a little black dress, but it's arguably one of the most iconic in fashion history. Back in 1994, Elizabeth Hurley arrived at the premiere of Four Weddings and a Funeral in this safety-pin-clad Versace dress. Hurley recently told Variety that she believes women should do 'whatever the hell they want when it comes to fashion.' She also added how shocked she was by the worldwide attention the dress brought, 'Hugh and I lived together in a tiny little one-bedroom flat without a full-length mirror, so I hadn't even seen the [full] dress until I saw it on the papers the next day. But of course, people also didn't know that his movie was going to be a sensation.' Florence Pugh brought the drama with her take on the LBD trend, arriving at the Venice Film Festival Premiere of Don't Worry Darling in this caped, sparkling tulle gown from Maison Valentino Haute Couture. At the 2015 iHeartRadio Music Awards, Taylor Swift embraced the geometric trend and combined it with the timeless LBD trend in this sparkling, cutout Kaufmanfranco dress. Mariah Carey's jewel-encrusted neckline LBD that she wore at the 1991 Grammys was the moment. In a lookbook breakdown with Vogue, Carey said while she loved the hair moment, she has one complaint about the look: the earrings. She said, 'I know I was very wrong for the earring choice, but whatever, I'm not gonna disrespect the moment because I'm winning my first Grammy.' Penelope Cruz knows not only how to rock a preppy Chanel look, but she knows how to be the Queen of black looks. We especially love this Clueless-esque button-down LBD. Keira Knightley is the Queen of sophisticated fashion, but back in her early career, she added some flair and sparkle whenever she could. Back at The Duchess after party in 2008, she arrived in this tufted, silk dress from one of her go-to brands, Chanel. Olivia Wilde's go-to red carpet color is black, and this puffy-skirted Vera Wang gown she rocked at ELLE's 29th Annual Women in Hollywood celebration showed she adores the LBD trend just as much as we do! Naomi Campbell was positively glowing as she brought the 1920-s glamour in this feathered LBD at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival. For the FOX All-Star 2014 Winter TCA Party, Jennifer Lopez shook things up with her normal dramatic red carpet looks. Instead of a puffy ball gown or a sparkling cutout dress, she gave fans a treat by wowing in this sheer leather Ermanno Scervino dress. Now, this wasn't a red carpet event, but no LBD list would be complete without mentioning this sensational velvet LBD Keke Palmer turned heads in back in 2018. If we could only pick one LBD that truly defined early 2000's red carpet fashion, it has to be Anne Hathaway's tufted gown she wore for Hollywood Life's Breakthrough of the Year Awards.
