This meta-analytic review examined irritability across childhood and adolescence as it relates to symptoms of common mental health disorders in these periods. Of key interest was whether the relationship between irritability and symptom severity varies according to symptom domain. This was tested at the level of broad symptom dimensions (internalizing versus externalizing problems) as well as discrete diagnostic domains (e.

Adverse effects of advanced age and poor initial neurological status on outcomes of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) have been documented. While a predictive model of the non-linear correlation between advanced age and clinical outcome has been reported, no previous model has been validated. Therefore, we created a prediction model of the non-linear correlation between advanced age and clinical outcome by machine learning and validated it using a separate cohort.

Article Synopsis
  • Eagle syndrome usually involves a long styloid process stressing the internal carotid artery (ICA), but a case is presented where a patient had ICA dissection without elongation of the styloid process.
  • A 43-year-old man experienced left hemiparesis and underwent treatment for a blockage in the right middle cerebral artery and ICA, where the styloid process was found to be linked to the dissection.
  • The authors suggest that even a normal-length styloid process can cause mechanical stress that leads to ICA dissection, highlighting the importance of assessing the styloid process in patients with cervical ICA dissection.

Objective: Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. In particular, functional outcomes of SAH caused by large or giant (≥ 10 mm) ruptured intracranial aneurysms are worsened by high procedure-related complication rates. However, studies describing the risk factors for poor functional outcomes specific to ruptured large/giant aneurysms are sparse.

Mitochondria undergo dynamic morphological changes depending on cellular cues, stress, genetic factors, or disease. The structural complexity and disease-relevance of mitochondria have stimulated efforts to generate image analysis tools for describing mitochondrial morphology for therapeutic development. Using high-content analysis, we measured multiple morphological parameters and employed unbiased feature clustering to identify the most robust pair of texture metrics that described mitochondrial state.
