Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the associations between residual symptoms of depression and specific self-reported symptoms in several cognitive domains.
Methods: The study investigated 117 patients with partially or fully remitted major depressive disorder (MDD) after treatment with antidepressant medications.
Results: Fatigue was significantly associated with inability to focus, alertness, and feeling "blue"; low interest and difficulty with concentration were associated with apathy. No associations were found between deficits in the cognitive domains considered and residual symptoms such as self-blaming, feeling worthless, feeling hopeless, having suicidal thoughts, difficulty with sleep, and lack of appetite.
Conclusion: Among MDD remitted patients endorsing residual symptoms such as fatigue and feeling "blue", deficits in a range of cognitive domains should be carefully assessed and treated.

Introduction: Foreign body (FB) inhalation is a potentially life-threatening condition in children. Magnets, being rare, aspirated objects, pose significant threat due to their physical and magnetic properties.
Case Presentation: A 10-year-old girl with a history of magnet aspiration went into respiratory distress due to dislodgement of magnet to opposite main bronchus following failed attempt of removal via Rigid Bronchoscopy.

Introduction: Primary bladder neck obstruction (PBNO) is a rare but significant cause of BOO and LUTS in females, with unclear etiology involving theories of fibrotic narrowing, tissue hyperplasia, or muscle abnormalities. Due to nonspecific symptoms, PBNO diagnosis remains challenging, and optimal surgical treatment needs to be better defined.
Case Presentation: We report two cases of females in their 50s with recurrent urinary retention managed by indwelling catheters.

Objective: The objective of this study was to discuss the characteristics of intracranial extension in patients with juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) and propose and an algorithm for its management.
Methods: A retrospective chart review of all patients with JNA who underwent operations between January 2013 and January 2023 was done, and those cases with intracranial extension categorized as stage IIIb, IVa, and IVb according to the Andrews modification of the Fisch staging classification were included in the study. Data were collected about age at presentation, symptoms, radiological findings, routes of intracranial extension, therapeutic management, and follow-up.

Propose: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant treatment of darolutamide, a next-generation androgen receptor inhibitor, plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for patients with locally advanced prostate cancer (LAPC).
Methods: This single-arm, multicenter, open-label phase II trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT05249712, 2022-01-01), recruited 30 localized high-risk/very high-risk prostate cancer (HRPCa/VHRPCa) patients from three centers in China between 2021 and 2023.
Background: Systemic inflammation plays a pivotal role in many chronic diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Assessing the composition of immune pathways in neurodegenerative diseases can contribute to precision medicine. Using publicly available transcriptomic data, we sought to elucidate transcriptional networks pertinent to inflammatory pathways across brain regions and peripheral blood in AD/mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and peripheral blood in Parkinson's disease (PD).
