Objective: This study aimed to identify prescribing behaviors in women of childbearing potential (WOCP) with epilepsy already taking valproate (VPA), and to investigate the relationship between VPA maintenance, substitution, reduction, or withdrawal as part of polytherapy, and seizure worsening or relapse.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the prescription behaviors and seizure outcomes in WOCP (16-50 years of age) with epilepsy, referred to eight Italian epilepsy centers, who were taking VPA for at least 1 year between 2014 and 2019.

Results: Among 750 women (~12% of all WOCP), 528 (70.

Introduction: The use of weight loss supplements is increasing, often driven by online marketing. However, many of these supplements are adulterated with undeclared pharmaceutical substances, potentially posing significant health risks. We investigated the presence of sibutramine and sildenafil in weight loss supplements and assessed the associated clinical outcomes.

Forecasting student performance with precision in the educational space is paramount for creating tailor-made interventions capable to boost learning effectiveness. It means most of the traditional student performance prediction models have difficulty in dealing with multi-dimensional academic data, can cause sub-optimal classification and generate a simple generalized insight. To address these challenges of the existing system, in this research we propose a new model Multi-dimensional Student Performance Prediction Model (MSPP) that is inspired by advanced data preprocessing and feature engineering techniques using deep learning.

Background: Preclinical studies and anecdotal case reports support the potential therapeutic benefit of low-dose oral ketamine as a treatment of clinical symptoms in Rett syndrome (RTT); however, no controlled studies have been conducted in RTT to evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy.

Design: This was a sequentially initiated, dose-escalating cohort, placebo-controlled, double blind, randomized sequence, cross-over study of oral ketamine in 6-12-year-old girls with RTT to evaluate short-term safety and tolerability and explore efficacy.

Methods: Participants were randomized to either five days treatment with oral ketamine or matched placebo, followed by a nine-day wash-out period and then crossed-over to the opposite treatment.
