Background: Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) feature progressive neurodegeneration in a remarkably regionally selective manner. Post mortem studies have posited a role for cell autonomous mechanisms driving this, so we aimed to examine a live human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) model to see whether it can replicate the phenomenon of selective neuronal vulnerability, so to better determine disease mechanisms and therapeutic targets.
Method: iPSC-derived neurons offer a rare opportunity to examine cell autonomous vulnerability in live human cells.

This paper reports two cases of occupational severe toxic encephalopathy caused by inhaling excessive nitrogen in an accident. The main reasons are failure to performing field-work standards of limited space operation and emergency rescue. Hypoxia asphyxia is the main pathogenic link of nitrogen toxicity, which can cause brain edema.

Hypertension is the leading risk factor for death and disability globally, particularly in Bangladesh. Serum calcium is supposed to be linked with the pathophysiology of hypertension, though various studies have shown contradictory results. Hence, this study was conducted to evaluate the role of serum calcium level in essential hypertensive patients.

Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have increased hip fracture risk. And the association between urine albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) and an increased risk of hip fracture in patients with T2DM remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the association between urinary ACR and hip fracture risk in postmenopausal women and aged men with T2DM.
