Abnormal sensory processing cortex in insomnia disorder: a degree centrality study.

Insomnia disorder is a significant global health concern. This research aimed to explore the pathogenesis of insomnia disorder using static and dynamic degree centrality methods at the voxel level. A total of 29 patients diagnosed with insomnia disorder and 28 healthy controls were ultimately included to examine differences in degree centrality between the two groups.

Thrombophilia among Chinese women with venous thromboembolism during pregnancy.

Aims: To assess the prevalence of thrombophilia among Chinese women with venous thromboembolism (VTE) developed during pregnancy.

Methods: Based on information from a tertiary teaching unit, all recorded cases of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) during pregnancy diagnosed between 1997 and 2005, were assessed for prevalence of thrombophilia. Fifty-five healthy women, who had at least one normal pregnancy but without any previous history of VTE, were recruited as controls.
