Here, we report a case of Epstein-Barr virus-positive central nervous system-post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (CNS-PTLD) patient who failed to achieve complete metabolic remission (CMR) after successively trying a methotrexate-based regimen combined with orelabrutinib or whole-brain radiotherapy and encountered intracranial hemorrhage during orelabrutinib treatment. Ultimately, the patient achieved CMR after one cycle of acalabrutinib in combination with temozolomide, teniposide, liposomal doxorubicin, dexamethasone, and rituximab (TEDDi-R). Following another cycle of TEDDi-R treatment, he has been receiving acalabrutinib maintenance up to now and remained in CMR. The case may provide an effective treatment option for CNS-PTLD patients in clinical practice.

Large conductance voltage- and calcium-activated potassium channels (BK channels) are extensively found throughout the central nervous system and play a crucial role in various neuronal functions. These channels are activated by a combination of cell membrane depolarisation and an increase in intracellular calcium concentration, provided by calcium sources located close to BK. In 2001, Isaacson and Murphy first demonstrated the coupling of BK channels with N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) in olfactory bulb neurons.

Background: Myelomeningocele (MMC) is the most common type of congenital spinal malformation, typically requiring surgical intervention. While prenatal repair is increasingly favored, postnatal repair remains the standard in many settings. This study aims to evaluate the antibiotics prescribed to neonates with MMC and their correlation with central nervous system (CNS) infection rates following postnatal surgical repair.

Oxytetracycline (OTC) and Florfenicol (FF) are prevalent antibiotics choices in both fish production and livestock farming. A comprehensive understanding of their effects is paramount for effective control of their use and for elucidating their physiological and pharmacological implications. In our investigation, zebrafish larvae were subjected to varying concentrations of OTC, FF or a combination of OTC + FF during 96 h.

Although the pathophysiology of migraine involves a complex ensemble of peripheral and central nervous system changes that remain incompletely understood, the activation and sensitization of the trigeminovascular system is believed to play a major role. However, non-invasive, in vivo neuroimaging studies investigating the underlying neural mechanisms of trigeminal system abnormalities in human migraine patients are limited. Here, we studied 60 patients with migraine (55 females, mean age ± SD: 36.
