Published: July 2020

An 18-year-old girl who had undergone deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty in her left eye for keratoconus a year back presented with inferonasal graft dehiscence with intact host Descemet's membrane and intact anterior chamber after sustaining blunt injury a week prior. The graft was sutured to the host bed, and complete resolution of graft edema was seen in 4 weeks. One year later, she underwent cataract surgery with foldable intraocular lens implantation. At her final follow-up, the best-corrected visual acuity in her left eye was 20/40 with a clear corneal graft and a stable posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation.

Emerging neurostimulation methods aim to selectively modulate deep brain structures. Guiding these therapies has presented a substantial chal- lenge, since imaging modalities such as MRI limit the spectrum of benefi- ciaries. In this study, we assess the guidance accuracy of a neuronavigation method that does not require taking MRI scans.

Transcranial neurosurgery assisted by endoscopy and intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) has become an effective approach for real-time visualization and guidance during tumor resection. This study explores the application of these techniques in falcine meningioma (FM) resection, assessing their feasibility and safety. Eleven FM patients underwent transcranial endoscopic resection with IOUS assistance.

Background: African Americans (AA) are disproportionally burdened by Alzheimer's disease (AD), but there is a scarcity of research focusing on understanding the neuroimmune component of AD pathogenesis in this population. It is generally accepted that microglia would be an ideal therapeutic target for AD and that genetic, lifestyle, societal and environmental factors and stressors have the potential to shape microglia phenotypes and their contribution to neurodegenerative processes. The overarching goal of the current study is to establish the population structure of microglia in older AAs and to investigate the relationship of the different microglia subsets with histopathological hallmarks of brain aging and AD in AAs.

12 lead surface ECGs as a surrogate of atrial electrical remodeling - a deep learning based approach.

J Electrocardiol

December 2024

Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA; Alliance for Cardiovascular Diagnostic and Treatment Innovation, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA.

Background And Purpose: Atrial fibrillation (AF), a common arrhythmia, is linked with atrial electrical and structural changes, notably low voltage areas (LVAs) which are associated with poor ablation outcomes and increased thromboembolic risk. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a deep learning model applied to 12‑lead ECGs for non-invasively predicting the presence of LVAs, potentially guiding pre-ablation strategies and improving patient outcomes.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 204 AF patients, who underwent catheter ablation.
