Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva, Switzerland.
Early detection of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) using brain MRI in young children presenting with drug-resistant epilepsy may facilitate prompt surgical treatment, resulting in better control of seizures and decreased associated cognitive difficulties. Characteristics of FCD described in the literature are predominantly based on MRI findings in a fully myelinated brain; therefore, changes occurring during early brain maturation are not well known. In this case report, we describe distinct MRI features of a FCD visualized best before completion of myelination of the cortex and subcortical white matter.

Therefore, this study aimed to examine modern contraceptive utilization and associated factors among street women.

Introduction: Adolescence is a critical developmental phase characterized by increased risk-taking behaviors, which are not inherently maladaptive. According to life history theory, individuals raised in harsh and unpredictable environments are more likely to adopt faster life history strategies, favoring immediate rewards over long-term benefits. Yet, limited empirical research explore the psychological mechanism about how early-life environmental stresses influence adolescents' risk-taking.

Aim Of The Study: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic and multisystemic disorder that affects between 1/6'000 and 1/10'000 of newborns. Clinical criteria and/or genetic analysis establish the diagnosis. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors everolimus or sirolimus reduce the severity of several TSC-related clinical traits.
