This study investigated the effects of left and right intracranial tumors on picture and word recognition memory. We hypothesized that left hemispheric (LH) patients would exhibit greater word recognition memory impairment than right hemispheric (RH) patients, with no significant hemispheric group picture recognition memory differences. The LH patient group obtained a significantly slower mean picture recognition reaction time than the RH group. The LH group had a higher proportion of tumors extending into the temporal lobes, possibly accounting for their greater pictorial processing impairments. Dual coding and enhanced visual imagery may have contributed to the patient groups' similar performance on the remainder of the measures.

Background: Despite its proven effectiveness and safety, there are limited real-world data on CoronaVac's immunogenicity in children, especially in lower-income countries, particularly for SARS-CoV-2 variants. We present a real-world study evaluating CoronaVac's immunogenicity in Colombian children stratified by previous exposure to this virus.
Methods: 89 children aged 3-11 years were enrolled (50 Non-Exposed and 39 Exposed).

Background: Fluoroethylnormemantine (FENM), a new Memantine (MEM) derivative, prevented amyloid-β[25-35] peptide (Aβ)-induced neurotoxicity in mice, a pharmacological model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) with high predictive value for drug discovery. Here, as drug infusion is likely to better reflect drug bioavailability due to the interspecies pharmacokinetics variation, we analyzed the efficacy of FENM after chronic subcutaneous (SC) infusion, in comparison with IP injections in two AD mouse models, Aβ-injected mice and the transgenic APP/PSEN1 (APP/PS1) line.
Methods: In Aβ-treated mice, FENM was infused at 0.

The First Affiliated Hospital, and College of Clinical Medicine of Henan University of Science and Technology, Luoyang, China.
Background: The diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy continue to face numerous challenges, highlighting the urgent need for the development of rapid, accurate, and non-invasive methods for seizure detection. In recent years, advancements in the analysis of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals have garnered widespread attention, particularly in the area of seizure recognition.
Methods: A novel hybrid deep learning approach that combines feature fusion for efficient seizure detection is proposed in this study.

Department of Palliative Medicine, West China School of Public Health and West China Fourth Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: Medical professionals who are engaged in palliative care commonly experience negative emotions resulting from the pain and grief experienced by patients and family members, which results in enormous psychological pressure for professionals, and the risk related to job burnout is significantly greater.
Objective: We aimed to explore the factors influencing job burnout and resilience among palliative care professionals.
Methods: We conducted a qualitative study using semistructured interviews and purposeful sampling methods.

Emotion regulation is integral to well-being and adaptive behavior. Differing regulation strategies have important downstream consequences. Evidence suggests that reappraisal use can improve memory and reduce emotional reactivity to previously regulated stimuli.
