Rationale: Locked-in syndrome (and its variant, completely locked-in state) generally has a high mortality rate in the acute setting; however, when induced by conditions such as acute inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy, it may well be curable such that an attempt at cure should be systematically sought by clinicians.
Patient Concerns: A 52-year-old man presented with acute tetraparesia and areflexia, initially diagnosed as Guillain-Barré syndrome. Despite appropriate treatment, his condition deteriorated, evolving into a completely locked-in state.

Background: Protein-truncating mutations in the titin gene are associated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation. However, little is known about the underlying pathophysiology.
Methods: We identified a heterozygous titin truncating variant (TTNtv) in a patient with unexplained early onset atrial fibrillation and normal ventricular function.

Objective: To study the influence of bracket base meshes on shear bond strength and observe them using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) before and after debonding.
Methods: Ninety brackets were divided into nine groups of 10 samples each: G1-Alexander, G2-Mini Sprint Brackets, G3-In-Ovation R CCO, G4-Gemini SL Self-Ligating Bracket, G5-Classic mini 2G Stylus, G6-Gemini Metal Brackets, G7-Clarity Advanced, G8-Crystall-Ize, and G9-Ceramic Series Flexx 2G. Groups G1 to G6 and G7 to G9 consisted of metallic and aesthetic brackets, respectively.

Revision hip arthroscopy is increasingly common and most often performed to treat residual femoroacetabular impingement caused by cam under-resection. Unfortunately, other pathologies encountered during revision hip arthroscopy are more difficult to treat, including capsular deficiency, labral deficiency, adhesion formation, and/or cam over-resection. When encountered, these various pathologies should be comprehensibly corrected with the goals of restoring anatomy, re-establishing the hip fluid seal, and ensuring impingement-free motion.

Immediately after invading their chosen host cell, the mature human erythrocyte, malaria parasites begin to export an array of proteins to this compartment, where they initiate processes that are prerequisite for parasite survival and propagation, including nutrient import and immune evasion. One consequence of these activities is the emergence of novel adhesive phenotypes that can lead directly to pathology in the human host. To identify parasite proteins involved in this process, we used modern genetic tools to target genes encoding 15 exported parasite proteins, selected by an in silico workflow.
