Goals: Advance care planning (ACP) procedure codes have been established to reimburse meaningful care goal discussions; however, the utilization frequency of these codes in neurological disease is unknown. The objective of this study is to identify the association between ACP codes and healthcare utilization in chronic neurodegenerative diseases.
Methods: This is a multicenter cohort study using real-world electronic health data.

Parkinson disease (PD) is a multisystem disorder marked by progressive dopaminergic neuronal degeneration in the substantia nigra, as well as nondopaminergic systems. Our aim was to investigate longitudinal changes in -(3-[F]fluoropropyl-2β-carbomethoxy-3β-(4-iodophenyl)nortropane (F-FP-CIT) binding at the putamen, substantia nigra, and raphe nuclei in PD. This retrospective cohort study enrolled 127 patients with PD, who underwent F-FP-CIT PET scans twice or more, and 71 age- and sex-matched healthy controls.

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) are indispensable core techniques in cardiac surgery. Numerous studies have shown that cardiopulmonary bypass and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest are associated with the occurrence of neuroinflammation, accompanied by the activation of microglia. Microglia, as macrophages in the central nervous system, play an irreplaceable role in neuroinflammation.

Indole, a fundamental heterocyclic core, has emerged as a cornerstone in the medicinal chemistry due to its diverse biological activities and structural versatility. This aromatic compound, present in natural as well as synthetic compounds, offers a versatile platform for the drug discovery. By strategically incorporating functional groups or pharmacophores, researchers can tailor indole-derivatives to target a wide range of diseases.
