Article Synopsis
- - Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by symptoms like intrauterine growth retardation, poor development after birth, a triangular face, and feeding issues, with diagnosis based on clinical features.
- - Genetic abnormalities are found in about 60% of SRS patients, primarily on chromosomes 7 or 11, while the cause remains unknown for around 40% of cases, termed idiopathic SRS.
- - A new genetic variant was identified in a child with severe growth issues linked to SRS, highlighting the effectiveness of targeted exome sequencing, and long-term growth hormone treatment was found to improve the child's height.
Introduction: Paediatric brain tumours in the sellar-suprasellar region (SSR) are often associated with arginine vasopressin peptide deficiency (AVPD), either at diagnosis caused by the tumour itself or during follow-up as consequence of treatments. The purpose of this research is to retrospectively describe the neuroradiological characteristics and the timing of AVPD development in a cohort of paediatric patients with craniopharyngioma (CP) or germ cell tumours (GCT).
Methods: We evaluated brain MRI at tumour diagnosis and at the onset of AVPD, as well as recorded clinical, endocrinological and histopathological data, treatments, and outcome.
This review will summarize artificial intelligence developments in acute ischemic stroke in recent years and forecasts for the future. Stroke is a major healthcare concern due to its effects on the patient's quality of life and its dependence on the timing of the identification as well as the treatment. In recent years, attention increased on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) systems to help categorize, prognosis, and to channel these patients toward the right therapeutic procedure.
