Objective: The objective of the study was to systemically evaluate the clinical efficacy of minimally invasive stereotactic puncture for intracranial hematoma evacuation in patients with cerebral hemorrhage.
Materials And Methods: Relevant studies in PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and VIP databases were searched. A meta-analysis was performed following the inclusion and exclusion criteria screening, data extraction, and literature quality evaluation.
Results: Fifteen studies involving 1312 patients were included with 673 participants in the experimental group and 639 in the control group. The results of the meta-analysis showed that, compared with traditional craniotomy or treatment, minimally invasive stereotactic puncture intracranial hematoma removal had a higher clinical total effective rate in patients with cerebral hemorrhage, an outcome that could significantly shorten the hospitalization time of patients with cerebral hemorrhage. The level of post-operative activities of daily living was significantly higher, the incidence of postoperative complications was lower, and the mortality rate was lower. However, there was no significant difference in the degree of post-operative neurological deficit.
Conclusion: Compared with traditional craniotomy or conservative treatment, minimally invasive stereotactic puncture intracranial hematoma removal has a higher clinical efficacy in the treatment of patients with cerebral hemorrhage, which can improve the post-operative daily life and abilities of patients.

Objectives: Fibromyalgia imposes a considerable burden of disability worldwide, and its therapies include rehabilitation interventions. However, the overall brain modulatory effects of rehabilitation interventions and their effects on clinical improvements in patients with fibromyalgia remain unclear. This systematic review of magnetic resonance imaging studies synthesised evidence for the brain modulatory effects of rehabilitation in patients with fibromyalgia.

Purpose: Perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a significant cause of neonatal brain injury. Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is the standard treatment for term neonates, but its safety and efficacy in neonates < 36 weeks gestational age (GA) remains unclear. This case series aimed to evaluate the outcomes of preterm infants with HIE treated with TH.

Purpose: To investigate the activity of default mode network (DMN), frontoparietal network (FPN) and cerebellar network (CN) in drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) patients undergoing vagus nerve stimulation (VNS).
Methods: Fifteen patients were recruited and underwent resting-state fMRI scans. Independent component analysis and paired sample t-tests were used to examine activity changes of DMN, FPN and CN before and after VNS.

Purpose: The benefits of upper-extremity reconstructive surgery for patients with spastic deformities are well documented, but a small portion of eligible patients undergo surgery. We sought to determine perceptions of upper-extremity reconstructive surgery among brain injury patients and nonsurgical providers to identify potential barriers to surgical evaluation.
Methods: Electronic medical records at a referral center were reviewed for patients diagnosed with upper limb spasticity following brain injury.
Introduction: Cerebral oximetry measurement using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been highlighted as a technology that can provide noninvasive information on regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) during CPR even though its effectiveness has not been fully confirmed. The research focuses on the use of NIRS to predict the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and neurological outcomes.
Objectives: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the validity of using regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) measurement compared to ETCO2 during CPR to and its association with ROSC, as well as to evaluate the neuroprognostic value of NIRS.
