so we decided to use uk healthcare data, historic uk healthcare data to follow a group of men with erectile dysfunction diagnosed by their gp and to see if the men who received viagra and other pde5 inhibitors had a different chance of developing alzheimer's disease. we found that over five years, there were on average more men in the group that used viagra and other drugs, had smaller chance, an 18% smaller chance of alzheimer's disease. it is a preventative effect. we can't really say there was a causal effect. and we are recommending that clinical trial units across the world maybe look into pde5 inhibitors as a repurposing drug so it could potentially be repurposed for alzheimer's disease. in order to do this, we need randomised controlled trials. so these are clinical studies in which have the group received a placebo and the other half receives drugs such as pde5 inhibitors. really important would be to extend the use in groups. so as i mentioned, the group of people we did the study on were men with erectile dysfunction. what we would like to see, does this effect also occur in women

you can see all of that rain spreading towards the uk. so we�*ve got cold air in the north coming in from the arctic, milder air spreading in from the south. it�*s where these two air masses meet. well, that�*s where we�*re going to have that period of rain, sleet and snow, really icy conditions maybe in some areas from northern wales into the pennines. you can see how big that temperature contrast is as well. so from morning onwards it�*s across the north of wales, mainly around the pennines as well. there will be quite a broad area where we could have some rain, sleet and snow. sleet and snow in this area is certainly possible snow showers in scotland, but i think it�*s more likely to be heavy rain in the south of the country. so these are the lower risk yellow warnings from the met office and if we zoom into the amber warnings which have been issued. so this is for northern wales and also the pennines. well, i think broadly speaking, quite widespread, 10 to 15 centimetres of snow possible. but in some of the higher routes,
