Objective: Sleep disorder is a common non-motor symptom (NMS) of Parkinson's disease. However, the global research focus on Parkinson's sleep-related disorders (PDSDs) and future trends remains unclear. Currently, there is no bibliometric analysis of PDSDs.

Although there are many studies on brain atrophy, there is a lack of relevant bibliometric studies. Therefore, this study aims to provide a visual analysis of global trends in brain atrophy research over the past 16 years.

Examinations comparing SCs to LBT with SCs for SW repair was among the meta-analysis from various languages that met the inclusion criteria. Using continuous random-effect models, the results of these investigations were examined, and the mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals was computed (CIs).

Methods: An ensemble model of pretrained convolutional neural networks was proposed, using Unet-VGG, SegNet-VGG, and PSPNet. Firstly, the Unet-VGG is obtained by the first 10 layers of VGG16 as the contraction path of the left half of the Unet.
BACKGROUND ABCA2 has been genetically linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, but its mRNA expression and epigenetics in AD have not been investigated. MATERIAL AND METHODS To explore the diagnosis value of ABCA2 mRNA expression in AD, 2 datasets GES15222 and GSE33000 containing expression profile of brain cortex tissues and 2 datasets GSE63063 (Cohort 1) and GSE63063 (Cohort 2) containing expression profile of blood were downloaded from the NCBI GEO database and analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses and logistic regression. The ABCA2 co-expressed genes were also analyzed by GO annotation to investigate the potential molecular mechanisms.
