Delayed postoperative spinal epidural hematoma after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion: A case report.

Background: Postoperative spinal epidural hematoma (POSEH) causes rapid neurological deficits within 24 h following the operation and can be fatal. However, some POSEH symptoms manifest three days after the operation, also known as delayed POSEH (DPOSEH). Little attention has been provided upon DPOSEH owing to its rare incidence, resulting in serious consequences upon occurrence.

Immune Checkpoint-Associated Locations of Diffuse Gliomas Comparing Pediatric With Adult Patients Based on Voxel-Wise Analysis.

Pediatric diffuse gliomas (pDGs) are relatively rare and molecularly distinct from pediatric pilocytic astrocytoma and adult DGs. Immunotherapy is a promising therapeutic strategy, requiring a deep understanding of tumor immune profiles. The spatial locations of brain tumors might be related to the molecular profiles.

Circ0083429 Regulates Osteoarthritis Progression via the Mir-346/ Axis.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease. Currently, apart from symptomatic treatment or joint replacement, no other effective treatments for OA exist. The mechanisms underlying OA remain elusive and require further research.

The Preferred Locations of Meningioma According to Different Biological Characteristics Based on Voxel-Wise Analysis.

Meningiomas presented preferred intracranial distribution, which may reflect potential biological natures. This study aimed to analyze the preferred locations of meningioma according to different biological characteristics. A total of 1,107 patients pathologically diagnosed with meningiomas between January 2012 and December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.

The role of natural killer cells in hepatocellular carcinoma development and treatment: A narrative review.

A major obstacle for treatment of HCC is the inadequate efficacy and limitation of the available therapeutic options. Despite the recent advances in developing novel treatment options, HCC still remains one of the major causes of cancer morbidity and mortality around the world. Achieving effective treatment and eradication of HCC is a challenging task, however recent studies have shown that targeting Natural Killer cells, as major regulators of immune system, can help with the complete treatment of HCC, restoration of normal liver function and subsequently higher survival rate of HCC patients.
