Article Synopsis
- Factor XIII (FXIII) deficiency is a rare but serious blood clotting disorder that can lead to severe bleeding problems.
- A case study of a 53-year-old man with no major health issues showed he suffered from recurrent bleeding in the brain and a hip hematoma due to FXIII deficiency, confirmed by genetic testing.
- The case highlights the importance of investigating potential deficiencies in clotting factors in patients who experience unexplained bleeding.
Objective: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) leads to death and disability. This study developed an effective prognostic nomogram for assessing the risk factors for TBI mortality.
Method: Data were extracted from an online database called "Multiparameter Intelligent Monitoring in Intensive Care IV" (MIMIC IV).

Article Synopsis
- Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a condition resulting from infections outside the brain that leads to significant brain damage and has a poor prognosis.
- Diagnosing SAE is challenging due to factors like sedation and mechanical ventilation, which complicate patient assessments.
- This review focuses on electrophysiological methods, like electroencephalography and somatosensory evoked potentials, to enhance the evaluation and diagnosis of SAE in clinical settings.
