Electroencephalographic (EEG) methods have great potential to serve both basic and clinical science approaches to understand individual differences in human neural function. Importantly, the psychometric properties of EEG data, such as internal consistency and test-retest reliability, constrain their ability to differentiate individuals successfully. Rapid and recent technological and computational advancements in EEG research make it timely to revisit the topic of psychometric reliability in the context of individual difference analyses.

PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) overactivity. Limited data suggest that mTOR inhibitors may be therapeutic. No placebo-controlled studies have examined mTOR inhibition on cognition and behavior in humans with PHTS with/without autism.

Cobb's tufts, also known as iris vascular tufts (IVT) and iris microhemangiomas (IMH), are coils of tightly clustered, minute blood vessels at the iris pupillary border. This study aimed to analyze previous literature and provide an update on Cobb's tufts. A systematic literature review was carried out by interrogating PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane, and Embase databases.
