Emergency care units in Hungary treat approximately 140-180 thousand head injuries of varying se'verity each year. These head injuries are mainly caused by traffic accidents, assaults, or domestic accidents. The outpatient care record contains details about the circumstances and underlying mechanisms of the head injury, the results of physical and imaging examinations, and therapeutic recommendations.

Anti-NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor encephalitis (ANRE) is a rare autoimmune condition targeting brain receptors, often linked to ovarian tumors in young women. In severe cases, it can lead to status epilepticus, but in sporadic cases, it may progress to super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE), a dangerous state of continuous or repetitive seizures demanding urgent medical attention that continues or recurs more than 24 hours after the initiation of anesthetic therapy. We present a case report of anti-NMDA receptor limbic encephalitis-triggered SRSE terminated with vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) and titrated to high stimulation parameters in the immediate postoperative period.

Article Synopsis
- Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is valuable in thyroid/parathyroid surgeries and aims to assess vocal cord paralysis (VCP) through variations in recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) amplitudes.
- A study involving 728 RLNs found that specific amplitude ranges (particularly V2 at 117-216 μV) effectively predicted VCP with high sensitivity and specificity.
- The findings suggest that measuring V2 amplitudes can serve as a reliable method to predict postoperative VCP, especially when initial vagus nerve exposure is limited.

The term "neuroenhancement" describes the enhancement of cognitive function associated with deficiencies resulting from a specific condition. Nevertheless, there is currently no agreed-upon definition for the term "neuroenhancement", and its meaning can change based on the specific research being discussed. As humans, our continual pursuit of expanding our capabilities, encompassing both cognitive and motor skills, has led us to explore various tools.

Recently, researchers have used silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) coupled with humic acid (HA) as antimicrobial agents. Herein, AgNPs were prepared and coupled with humic acid for their antimicrobial activities. The as-prepared AgNPs coupled with humic acid (HA) were characterized by an atomic force microscope (AFM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), zeta potential, zeta sizer, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and UV-VIS spectrophotometer.
