Either intracranial or extracranial pseudoaneurysms due to penetrating head injuries with gunshot are very rare entities. As the pseudoaneurysms of the superficial temporal artery are represented commonly with a pulsating mass lesion beneath scalp, the intracranial pseudoaneurysms are represented with symptoms including decreased conscious level, seizure, or focal neurological deficits. Here, two patients with combat related pseudoaneurysms are reported; one was in distal cortical branch of anterior cerebral artery and one was in superficial temporal artery. Both of the cases were victims of Libyan war. One was admitted with a swelling in his scalp and a pseudoaneurysms on parietal branch of superficial temporary artery diagnosed with computed tomography; and the other was incidentally diagnosed on distal cortical branch of anterior cerebral artery during operation for removal of an intracranial bullet. Both of the aneurysms treated with surgical excision without any complication.

Retrograde thrombosis of the superficial sylvian vein following liquid adhesive hemostat use during craniotomy: illustrative case.
J Neurosurg Case Lessons
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, University of California, Irvine, Orange, California.
Background: Intravascular injection of liquid adhesive hemostats is a rare but serious complication that can result in cerebral thromboembolism.
Observations: A 64-year-old female underwent orbitozygomatic craniotomy for posterior communicating artery aneurysm clipping with the routine use of a flowable hemostatic agent during extradural dissection. After placement of the aneurysm clip, flow was confirmed through the parent vessel and nearby branches.
Evaluation of Retinal and Choroidal Microvascularity in Patients with Benign Essential Blepharospasm.
Curr Eye Res
January 2025
University of Health Sciences, Basaksehir Cam and Sakura City Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey.
Purpose: To assess the retinal and choroidal microvascular changes in patients with benign essential blepharospasm (BEB) and to investigate the factors that may be effective on microvascularity.
Methods: This study included patients with BEB and healthy controls. All participants underwent a comprehensive examination followed by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
In our dynamic environments, predictive processing is vital for auditory perception and its associated behaviors. Predictive coding formalizes inferential processes by implementing them as information exchange across cortical layers and areas. With laminar-specific blood oxygenation level dependent we measured responses to a cascading oddball paradigm, to ground predictive auditory processes on the mesoscopic human cortical architecture.

Hefei University, Hefei, China.
Introduction: Mental health monitoring utilizing EEG analysis has garnered notable interest due to the non-invasive characteristics and rich temporal information encoded in EEG signals, which are indicative of cognitive and emotional conditions. Conventional methods for EEG-based mental health evaluation often depend on manually crafted features or basic machine learning approaches, like support vector classifiers or superficial neural networks. Despite the potential of these approaches, they often fall short in capturing the intricate spatiotemporal relationships within EEG data, leading to lower classification accuracy and poor adaptability across various populations and mental health scenarios.

Background: This study evaluates retinal oxygen saturation and vessel density within the macula and correlates these measures in controls and subjects with type 2 diabetes (DM) with (DMR) and without (DMnR) retinopathy. Changes in retinal oxygen saturation have not been evaluated regionally in diabetic patients.
Methods: Data from seventy subjects (28 controls, 26 DMnR, and 16 DMR were analyzed.
