Valproic acid-induced hyperammonemia with encephalopathy in adults: A meta-analysis.
Int J Clin Pharmacol Ther
January 2025
Objective: Valproic acid, frequently prescribed for neurological and psychiatric disorders, can cause hyperammonemia (HA). This retrospective study aimed to investigate the association among the basic characteristics, comorbidities, co-medications, and risk of HA in patients receiving valproic acid.
Materials And Methods: We compared groups with and without HA using data collected from the medical records of adults undergoing valproic acid monitoring between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2021.
Association of long-term weight management pharmacotherapy with multiple health outcomes: an umbrella review and evidence map.
Int J Obes (Lond)
January 2025
Center for Optometry, Gansu Provincial Hospital, Lanzhou, China.
Background: Multiple meta-analyses (MAs) have demonstrated that six pharmacotherapies, including orlistat, liraglutide, phentermine/topiramate, naltrexone/bupropion, semaglutide, and tirzepatide, improve weight loss and weight maintenance. However, few studies have synthesized and evaluated the quality of this evidence.
Objective: To identify the relevant MAs of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that explored the association between the six pharmacotherapies and obesity-related health outcomes and adverse events (AEs).
Semaglutide and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in an adolescent with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Center for Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, Children's Hospital Los Angeles and Keck School of Medicine of USC, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Background: Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, primarily due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, leads to impaired cortisol and aldosterone production and excess adrenal androgens. Lifelong glucocorticoid therapy is required, often necessitating supraphysiological doses in youth to manage androgen excess and growth acceleration. These patients experience higher obesity rates, hypertension, and glucose metabolism issues, complicating long-term health management.

Division of Child Neurology, Department of Pediatrics, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, AR, USA. Electronic address:
Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy marked by drug-resistant seizures and profound cognitive and behavioral impairments, with nearly 95% of individuals affected by moderate to severe intellectual disability. This review comprehensively explores the cognitive and behavioral impacts of current treatment options for LGS, including antiseizure medications (ASMs), neuromodulation strategies, the ketogenic diet, and surgical interventions. Given the limited availability of LGS-specific data for several ASMs, the evidence base is supplemented with findings from general epilepsy populations and individuals with epilepsy and intellectual disabilities.

Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a severe, childhood-onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy characterized by multiple drug-resistant seizure types, specific electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns, and significant cognitive and behavioral impairments. To date, eight anti-seizure medications (ASMs) have been specifically approved by the U.S.
