Article Synopsis
- - The study reviewed the effectiveness and safety of deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) for treating schizophrenia, finding it does not significantly reduce psychotic symptoms compared to sham treatment.
- - Three randomized clinical trials (RCTs) with 80 patients were analyzed, revealing that while dTMS didn’t improve overall psychopathology, it possibly enhanced some aspects of executive function.
- - The review indicated moderate dropout rates (16.7% to 44.4%) and some reported side effects, like tingling and discomfort, highlighting the need for more extensive RCTs to explore dTMS's impact on schizophrenia further.
Background: This study aims to analyze breast cancer burden attributable to high body mass index (BMI) and high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) in China from 1990 to 2019.
Methods: Data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study 2019. Deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) were used for attributable burden, and age-period-cohort (APC) model was used to evaluate the independent effects of age, period and birth cohort.

Objective: To study the value of transesophageal atrial pacing (TEAP) in neonates with tachyarrhythmia.
Methods: The clinical data of 26 neonates with tachyarrhythmia who underwent TEAP electrophysiological examination or cardioversion were collected.
Results: Of the 26 neonates, 15(58%) were diagnosed with atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia, 3(12%) were diagnosed with sinus tachycardia, 3(12%) were diagnosed with ventricular tachycardia, 2(8%) were diagnosed with fast/slow atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia, 2(8%) were diagnosed with atrial tachycardia, and 1(4%) was diagnosed with sinus tachycardia with ventricular preexcitation.
