AI Article Synopsis
- A case of unilateral burning mouth syndrome was initially thought to be psychogenic but was later found to have a neuropathic origin.
- An intra-oral mucosa biopsy revealed significant damage to sensory nerve fibers.
- This damage is likely attributed to a previous maxillary anesthetic block and dental surgery.
Article Abstract
The neuropathic origin of a case of unilateral burning mouth syndrome, previously diagnosed as psychogenic, was ascertained by intra-oral mucosa biopsy, which showed a severe sensory fibers damage, probably caused by maxillary anesthetic block and dental surgery.

Breast Cancer Susceptibility Gene Sequence Variations and Development of Contralateral Breast Cancer.
JAMA Netw Open

Importance: Heterogeneity in development of estrogen receptor (ER)-specific first primary breast cancer exists due to deleterious germline variants in moderate- to high-penetrance breast cancer susceptibility genes, but it is unknown if these associations occur in ER-specific CBC.
Objective: To determine the association of deleterious germline variants in breast cancer susceptibility genes with ER-specific CBC development and whether ER status of the first primary breast cancer modifies these associations.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This case-control study included CBC cases and matched unilateral breast cancer controls from The Women's Environment, Cancer, and Radiation Epidemiology (WECARE) Study, a population-based case-control study.

Introduction: Lymphedema, a debilitating characterized by localized fluid retention and tissue swelling, results from abnormalities in the lymphatic system. In the case of primary lymphedema, this condition is attributed to malformations in lymphatic vessels or nodes, and it is marked by a relentless progression leading to irreversible tissue fibrosis after repetitive inflammation. Many questions regarding its treatment, such as the choice of the type of intervention and the timing, still remain unanswered.

Background: We have been investigating in vivo astrocytic Ca homeostasis in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) of awake, head-restrained ambulating mice using two-photon technology. Prior results from our lab were obtained in neurons across aging, and in male and female C57Bl6/J mice (Case et al., 2023).

Background: Epidemiological studies report an elevated risk of neurodegenerative disorders, particularly Parkinson's disease (PD), in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that is mitigated in those prescribed incretin mimetics or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4Is). Incretin mimetic repurposing appears promising in human PD and Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials. DPP-4Is are yet to be evaluated in PD or AD human studies.

The pupillary reflex is a complex physiological response involving both the eye and associated neural pathways. Relative afferent pupillary defects (RAPDs) can present due to various underlying pathologies, yet their occurrence in serotonin syndrome has been rarely documented. This report details the case of a 21-year-old non-binary individual with a history of bipolar disorder who presented to the emergency department following a polypharmacy overdose, including significant ingestion of sertraline, aripiprazole, and buspirone.
