Microvascular decompression: a contemporary update.

Background: Microvascular decompression (MVD) is the gold-standard surgical treatment for cranial nerve compression disorders, including trigeminal neuralgia (TN), hemifacial spasm (HFS), and glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GPN). This review synthesizes historical milestones, recent advances, and evolving techniques in MVD, with a primary focus on these conditions.

Methods: A comprehensive literature review was conducted using databases such as PubMed, SpringerLink, Google Scholar, BioMed Central, Scopus, and ScienceDirect.

Modified prediction model for poor short-term prognosis in patients with chronic subdural hematoma after burr hole drainage: a retrospective cohort study.

To the Editor,I would like to acknowledge the valuable efforts taken to enhance the knowledge through the article "Prediction model for poor short-term prognosis in patients with chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) after burr hole drainage: a retrospective cohort study" [1]. We thoroughly read this article published in your journal and learned the aim behind this study. This article has described every aspect of determining prognosis postoperatively in patients after evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma via a single burr hole.

Evaluating the safety and effectiveness of tolvaptan in patients with heart failure and renal impairment: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: Patients with heart failure and concomitant renal impairment are often prescribed loop diuretics, such as furosemide, as the primary treatment. The present meta-analysis is focused on analyzing the safety and efficacy of the implementation of tolvaptan as a novel approach in patients with renal impairment and heart failure.

Methods: Two reviewers conducted a screening of articles using online databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Embase.

based formulations control the wilt disease of chickpea ( L.) caused by f. sp. , better when inoculated as consortia: findings from pot experiments under field conditions.

Background: Commercial/chemical pesticides are available to control wilt of chickpea, but these antifungals have numerous environmental and human health hazards. Amongst various organic alternatives, use of antagonistic fungi like , is the most promising option. Although, spp.

Emerging trends of carbon emissions and foreign direct investment: accounting for ecological footprints, renewable energy, globalization, and technological innovations in BRICS.

This paper investigates the intricate interplay between carbon emissions and foreign direct investment within the context of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) for the period spanning 2000 to 2022. In our comprehensive analysis, we incorporate ecological footprint, renewable energy, globalization, and technological innovations as exogenous variables. Employing a system of simultaneous equations across the BRICS panel, we aim to fully elucidate the proposed relationships.

Environmental innovation and firm value: The moderating role of organizational capital.

Since last decade, firms are facing the challenge of strict compliance in response to the stakeholders' awareness about climate change and environmental degradation. Considering these trends, we examine the effect of environmental innovation such as product innovation and process innovation on firm value and the moderating effect of organizational capital on environmental innovation-firm value nexus. Using the data of U.

A secure key dependent dynamic substitution method for symmetric cryptosystems.

The biggest challenge for symmetric cryptosystems is to replace their static substitution with dynamic substitution, because static substitution S-boxes make the symmetric block ciphers more vulnerable to attacks. Previous well-known dynamic key-dependent S-boxes are lacking in dynamicity and do not provide optimal security for symmetric block ciphers. Therefore, this research aims to contribute an effective and secure method for designing key-dependent dynamic S-box with dynamic permutations to make the symmetric block ciphers optimally secure.

MIND: A Multi-Source Data Fusion Scheme for Intrusion Detection in Networks.

In recent years, there is an exponential explosion of data generation, collection, and processing in computer networks. With this expansion of data, network attacks have also become a congenital problem in complex networks. The resource utilization, complexity, and false alarm rates are major challenges in current Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS).

Optimal sequence for chain matrix multiplication using evolutionary algorithm.

The Chain Matrix Multiplication Problem (CMMP) is an optimization problem that helps to find the optimal way of parenthesization for Chain Matrix Multiplication (CMM). This problem arises in various scientific applications such as in electronics, robotics, mathematical programing, and cryptography. For CMMP the researchers have proposed various techniques such as dynamic approach, arithmetic approach, and sequential multiplication.
