An incorrect choice of valve may produce a delay in psychomotor development in shunted hydrocephalic children. The intracranial pressure was measured for 24 h in 20 subjects suffering from nontumoral hydrocephalus, obtaining a pressure/volume index with compliance and perfusion pressure data. Their data were entered into a computer and used to determine the correct valve to be chosen.

Objective: To develop an original-mirror alignment associated deep learning algorithm for intelligent registration of three-dimensional maxillofacial point cloud data, by utilizing a dynamic graph-based registration network model (maxillofacial dynamic graph registration network, MDGR-Net), and to provide a valuable reference for digital design and analysis in clinical dental applications.

Methods: Four hundred clinical patients without significant deformities were recruited from Peking University School of Stomatology from October 2018 to October 2022. Through data augmentation, a total of 2 000 three-dimensional maxillofacial datasets were generated for training and testing the MDGR-Net algorithm.

Craniosynostosis, a condition marked by the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures, exhibits diverse phenotypes. This study aims to advance the understanding of these phenotypes beyond the conventional 2-dimensional analysis by focusing on identifying indicators of increased intracranial pressure (ICP) such as bony thinning or irregularities in skull morphology. A retrospective review was conducted for all pediatric patients with midline craniosynostosis who presented to our tertiary academic center for evaluation.

Introduction: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) infusion test analysis allows recognizing and appropriately evaluating CSF dynamics in the context of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH), which is crucial for effective diagnosis and treatment. However, existing methodology possesses drawbacks that may compromise the precision and interpretation of CSF dynamics parameters.

Research Question: This study aims to circumvent these constraints by introducing an innovative analysis method grounded in Bayesian inference.

Multimodal monitoring in patients with acute brain injury - A survey from critical care providers.

Background: Multimodal neuromonitoring (MMM) aims to improve outcome after acute brain injury, and thus admission in specialized Neurocritical Care Units with potential access to MMM is necessary. Various invasive and noninvasive modalities have been developed, however there is no strong evidence to support monitor combinations nor is there a known standardized approach. The goal of this study is to identify the most used invasive and non-invasive neuromonitoring modalities in daily practice as well as ubiquitousness of MMM standardization.
