Development and applications of a machine learning model for an in-depth analysis of pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure-like behaviors in adult zebrafish.

Epilepsy, a neurological disorder causing recurring seizures, is often studied in zebrafish by exposing animals to pentylenetetrazol (PTZ), which induces clonic- and tonic-like behaviors. While adult zebrafish seizure-like behaviors are well characterized, manual assessment remains challenging due to its time-consuming nature, potential for human error/bias, and the risk of overlooking subtle behaviors. Aiming to circumvent these issues, we developed a machine learning model for automating the analysis of subtle abnormal and seizure-like behaviors in PTZ-exposed adult zebrafish.

Octadecaneuropeptide promotes the migration of astrocyte via ODN metabotropic receptor and calcium signaling pathway.

Migration is an essential characteristic of cells that occurs during many physiological and pathological processes. Astrocytes represent the most abundant cell type in the adult central nervous system (CNS), that play a crucial role in various functions such as guiding and supporting neuronal migration during development and maintaining brain homeostasis at adulthood. Astrocytes specifically synthesize and release endozepines, a family of regulatory peptides, including the octadecaneuropeptide (ODN).

The presence of psychotropic drugs (PDs) in aquatic ecosystems represents an increasing environmental problem, posing a serious threat to human health and aquatic organisms. Lateral flow immunoassays (LFIA) have been widely used in the detection of PD contaminants. However, maintaining signaling tag reporting activity and achieving LFIA's multi-readout capability remain significant challenges to meeting a range of detection scenarios.

We describe a new technique for hydrodilatation of the frozen shoulder, which we coined 'Sonographically-Navigated Frozen Shoulder Release (S-FSR)' or 'Dr Gonzalez's technique.' Traditional treatments include a combination of conservative and surgical modalities, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, physical therapy, and open capsular release. We describe a modification to hydrodilatation of the frozen shoulder.

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is increasingly used in the management of haemorrhage during and after delivery and haemorrhage caused by other medical conditions due to its efficacy and safety. However, increasing report of fatal complications from inadvertent intrathecal TXA injection remains a cause of concern. The aim of this case report is to demonstrate clinical presentation and predictors of accidental intrathecal injection of TXA within the structure and processes of care in a health facility.
