Objective: To confirm the incidence of subcutaneous effusion secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leakage after craniotomy, analyze the risk factors for cerebrospinal fluid leakage leading to subcutaneous effusion, summarize the underlying causes of its occurrence and explore the corresponding treatment strategies.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 757 patients who underwent craniotomy at our hospital from January to December 2023. The authors documented the sex, age, surgical characteristics, and history of chronic diseases for all patients, including those who developed subcutaneous effusion secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leakage.
We report the precise measurements of the cross section of e^{+}e^{-}→hadrons at center-of-mass energies from 3.645 to 3.871 GeV.

Achieving optimal therapeutic concentrations of posaconazole can be challenging due to interpatient variability, the availability of multiple formulations, and various dosing strategies.
Methods: We conducted a systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library to identify studies evaluating factors that influence blood concentrations of posaconazole.
Coacervates have garnered significant attention as potential drug carriers. However, the instability resulting from their intrinsic membrane-free nature restricts the application of coacervates in drug delivery. Herein, the engineering of poly(ethylene glycol) nanoparticles (PEG NPs) is reported using coacervates composed of PEG and polyphenols as the templates, where PEG is subsequently cross-linked based on different chemistries (e.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFG protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest human membrane protein family that transduce extracellular signals into cellular responses. They are major pharmacological targets, with approximately 26% of marketed drugs targeting GPCRs, primarily at their orthosteric binding site. Despite their prominence, predicting the pharmacological effects of novel GPCR-targeting drugs remains challenging due to the complex functional dynamics of these receptors.
