Nerve dysfunction is a common postoperative complication of dental extractions. In dental extraction, the nerves involved mainly include the inferior alveolar nerve, lingual nerve, buccal nerve, chin nerve and nasopalatine nerve. Nerve dysfunction will seriously affect the patient's quality of life and may lead to medical disputes. This review firstly summarizes the clinical manifestations and pathological mechanisms of post-dental extraction nerve dysfunction, then summarizes its clinical risk factors and preventive strategies, then analyzes the clinical characteristics and physiological mechanisms of natural sensory recovery after dental extraction nerve dysfunction, and finally summarizes the cutting-edge therapeutic tools and research directions in the treatment of post-dental extraction nerve dysfunction in recent years. The aim of this article is to comprehensively review the cutting-edge advances in post-dental extraction nerve dysfunction from clinical to molecular mechanisms, and from pathogenesis to prevention and treatment strategies, and seeks to provide reference for oral surgeons in preventing and responding to the treatment of nerve dysfunction after dental extraction.

Objective: Disorders of arousal (DoA) are characterized by an intermediate state between wakefulness and deep sleep, leading to incomplete awakenings from NREM sleep. Multimodal studies have shown subtle neurophysiologic alterations even during wakefulness in DoA. The aim of this study was to explore the brain functional connectivity in DoA and the metabolic profile of the anterior and posterior cingulate cortex, given its pivotal role in cognitive and emotional processing.

Background: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is associated with abnormal changes in the brain's central nervous system. Previous studies on the brain networks of SSNHL have primarily focused on functional connectivity within the brain. However, in addition to functional connectivity, structural connectivity also plays a crucial role in brain networks.

Pontine Tegmental Cap Dysplasia (PTCD) is a rare hindbrain malformation characterized by cranial nerve dysfunction, cerebellar abnormalities, and developmental delays of varying severity. This case report presents a 12-month-old female with significant developmental delays, hypotonia, and cranial nerve abnormalities. The findings underscore the critical role of radiology and neuroimaging in diagnosing and managing PTCD.

Dysfunction of the vagus nerve has been suggested as a contributing factor in various gastrointestinal disorders, prompting interest in vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) as a non-pharmacological therapy. We performed a systematic review to determine the efficacy of invasive and non-invasive VNS in gastrointestinal disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), functional dyspepsia (FD), functional constipation, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and gastroparesis. We applied a systematic search of the literature in the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases in order to identify studies comparing VNS with an adequate control condition (sham stimulation) in patients with gastrointestinal disorders.

Introduction: The management of de novo non-specific spinal infections (spondylodiscitis - SD) remains inconsistent due to varying clinical practices and a lack of high-level evidence, particularly regarding the indications for surgery.
Research Question: This study aims to develop consensus recommendations for the diagnosis and management of SD, addressing diagnostic modalities, surgical indications, and treatment strategies.
Material And Methods: A Delphi process was conducted with 26 experts from the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS).
