Alterations of gray matter volume and functional connectivity in patients with cognitive impairment induced by occupational aluminum exposure: a case-control study.
Front Neurol
January 2025
School of Public Health, Shanxi Medical University, Taiyuan, China.
Background: Cognitive impairment (CI) is a condition in which an individual experiences noticeable impairment in thinking abilities. Long-term exposure to aluminum (Al) can cause CI. This study aimed to determine the relationship between CI and MRI-related changes in postroom workers exposed to Al.

Department of Medical Research, Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital, Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation, Hualien, Taiwan.
Background: Population aging has led to a surge in elderly care needs worldwide. Bone aging, skeletal muscle degeneration, and osteoporosis pose critical health challenges for the elderly. The process of bone and skeletal muscle aging not only impacts the functional abilities but also increases fragility fracture risk.

Beijing Tongren Eye Center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Beijing Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Purpose: To investigate the changes in cerebral hemispheric functional connections in patients with acute acquired concomitant esotropia (AACE) and their relationship with clinical manifestations, utilizing voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC).
Methods: A prospective, observational study was conducted involving 32 AACE patients and 31 age-, sex-, and education-matched healthy controls (HC). The resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) signals, binocular vision function, and psychometric scale scores were collected rs-fMRI data and structural image data were analyzed for VMHC, and a two-sample -test was used to analyze the differences in VMHC between groups.
Severe pneumonia due to concurrent Legionella pneumophila and Acinetobacter baumannii infections: a case report.
BMC Pulm Med
January 2025
Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Lishui Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Zhejiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, No. 800 Zhongshan Road, Liandu District, Lishui, Zhejiang, 323000, China.
Background: Legionella pneumophila is an uncommon pathogen causing community-acquired atypical pneumonia. Acinetobacter baumannii is a major pathogen responsible for hospital-acquired pneumonia, but it rarely causes serious infections in a community setting. Without prompt and appropriate treatments, infection from either of these two pathogens can cause a high mortality rate.

December 2024
University Clinic for Infectious and Tropical Diseases of the University Clinical Centre of Serbia, Belgrade, Serbia.
Introduction: Bilateral facial nerve palsy (FNP) is a rare condition that is idiopathic in only 20%. FNP is the most common cranial neuropathy in West Nile neuroinvasive disease (WNND) but is usually unilateral and only a few cases of bilateral FNP have been reported.
Case: We present a case of a 65-year-old woman with confirmed WNND and simultaneous bilateral FNP.
