Introduction: Patients with bipolar disorder (BD) demonstrate episodic memory deficits, which may be hippocampal-dependent and may be attenuated in lithium responders. Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived CA3 pyramidal cell-like neurons show significant hyperexcitability in lithium-responsive BD patients, while lithium nonresponders show marked variance in hyperexcitability. We hypothesize that this variable excitability will impair episodic memory recall, as assessed by cued retrieval (pattern completion) within a computational model of the hippocampal CA3.

Objective: Most of the patients who are admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are forced to feed and use nutrition and medicine through an implanted tube. When administering medication through enteral feeding tubes, it is essential to be cautious, as some drugs may not be suitable due to interactions with feeding formulas or adverse effects when crushed. Some errors during drug gavage can lead to feeding tube blockage, reduced drug effectiveness, or drug toxicity.

Background: Reporting serious adverse events (SAEs) is crucial to reduce or avoid toxicities that can lead to major consequences for patient's health due to treatments tested in clinical trials. Its exhaustiveness is often inadequate, and we observe discrepancies between data published by pharmacovigilance organizations and clinical databases.
Objectives: While the process of reconciliation aims at reducing these differences, it remains a very time-consuming and imprecise task.

Aim: To investigate the influence of postoperative intraocular lens (IOL) positions on the accuracy of cataract surgery and examine the predictive factors of postoperative biometry prediction errors using the Barrett Universal II (BUII) IOL formula for calculation.
Methods: The prospective study included patients who had undergone cataract surgery performed by a single surgeon from June 2020 to April 2022. The collected data included the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), corneal curvature, preoperative and postoperative central anterior chamber depths (ACD), axial length (AXL), IOL power, and refractive error.

Naturally occurring peptides display a wide mass distribution after ionization due to the presence of heavy isotopes of C, H, N, O, and S and hydrogen loss. There is a crucial need for sensitive methods that collect as much information as possible about all plasma peptide forms. Statistical analysis of the delta mass distribution of peptide precursors from MS/MS spectra that were matched to 63,077 peptide sequences by X!TANDEM revealed Gaussian peaks representing heavy isotopes and hydrogen loss at integer delta mass values of -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, +4, and +5 Da.
