Background: Craniopharyngiomas are epithelial tumors derived from the remnants of the Rathke pouch, while Rathke cleft cysts (RCC) are benign cystic lesions originating from the Rathke pouch itself [1]. Rathke cleft cysts comprise 10-15% of the hypophyseal tumors, while craniopharyngiomas are relatively rare, comprising only 2-5% of intracranial tumors [2]. Both located in the sellar and parasellar regions and share clinical symptoms including headache, visual disturbances, and endocrine dysfunction [3].

Network-based biomarkers in background electroencephalography in childhood epilepsies-A scoping review and narrative synthesis.

Seizure

November 2024

Neuronostics, Bristol, United Kingdom; Centre for Systems Modelling and Quantitative Biomedicine, University of Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TT, United Kingdom; Institute of Metabolism and Systems Research, University of Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TT, United Kingdom.

Background: Brain network analysis is an emerging field of research that could lead to the development, testing and validation of novel biomarkers for epilepsy. This could shorten the diagnostic uncertainty period, improve treatment, decrease seizure risk and lead to better management. This scoping review summarises the current state of electroencephalogram (EEG)-based network abnormalities for childhood epilepsies.

Prompt learning is a powerful technique that enables the transfer of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) like CLIP to downstream tasks. However, when the prompt-based methods are fine-tuned solely on base classes, they often struggle to generalize to novel classes lacking visual samples during training, especially in scenarios with limited training data. To address this challenge, we propose an innovative approach called Synth-CLIP that leverages synthetic data to enhance CLIP's generalization capability for base classes and the general capability for novel classes.

Platelets as crucial players in the dynamic interplay of inflammation, immunity, and cancer: unveiling new strategies for cancer prevention.

Front Pharmacol

December 2024

Systems Pharmacology and Translational Therapeutics Laboratory, The Center for Advanced Studies and Technology (CAST), "G. d'Annunzio" University, Chieti, Italy.

Inflammation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of various diseases by promoting the acquisition of new functional traits by different cell types. Shared risk factors between cardiovascular disease and cancer, including smoking, obesity, diabetes, high-fat diet, low physical activity, and alcohol consumption, contribute to inflammation linked to platelet activation. Platelets contribute to an inflammatory state by activating various normal cells, such as fibroblasts, immune cells, and vascular cells.
