Our study aims to explore the pharmacokinetics of valproic acid (VPA) in Chinese patients with epilepsy or after neurosurgery and establish a robust population pharmacokinetics (PPK) model. The PPK model was developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling, incorporating a total of 615 VPA plasma concentration data points from 443 Chinese epilepsy or after neurosurgery patients. A one-compartment model with an additive residual model was established.

Methods: A thorough search was conducted on the Web of Science on May 20, 2024, focusing on original articles and reviews in English. Bibliometric tools were employed to make a network analysis and visual representation.
Objective: The popularity of minimally invasive surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) has been steadily increasing worldwide. This study aims to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to identify global trends and hotspots in the research related to this surgical approach.
Methods: Select articles related to the field that were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) between January 1, 1993 and December 31, 2022.
Background: Observational studies have found an increased risk of stroke in patients with spondyloarthritis, but the results are susceptible to reverse causality and confounders. Therefore, the study aimed to further explore the association between spondyloarthritis and different subtypes of stroke by using a two sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
Methods: Genetic instrumental variables for spondyloarthritis were identified using summary level data from a genome-wide association study involving 201,581 people.
Purpose: Acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a dangerous symptom in patients with severe viral pneumonia. This study aims to comprehensively review the cooperation and influence of countries, institutions, authors and co-cited journals/authors/references and keywords in the field of ALI/ARDS associated with viral pneumonia from the perspective of bibliometrics, evaluate the clustering evolution of knowledge structure, and find hot trends and emerging topics.
Methods: Publications on ALI/ARDS associated with viral pneumonia published from January 1, 1992 to December 31, 2022 were extracted from the Web of Science core collection.
