This editorial discusses a case report recently published in the . The report describes the clinical presentation, imaging, diagnosis, and treatment of a patient with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) combined with primary lymphedema (PLE). Additionally, it retrospectively analyzes the data of 16 previously reported cases of children with TSC combined with PLE to summarize the epidemiology, genetic diagnosis, and current main treatments of these patients. The report also speculates on the pathological and physiological mechanisms underlying TSC combined with PLE. TSC combined with PLE is rare; therefore, the report provides a theoretical basis for understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms and treatment options for patients with TSC and PLE. Comprehensive clinical management of TSC is essential due to the diverse and multiorgan nature of its manifestations, often requiring a multidisciplinary approach for newly diagnosed cases.

Trauma-Related Symptom Improvement in Multimodal Triphasic Trauma Therapy: Findings From a Community-Based Study.
Clin Psychol Psychother
March 2025
Psychology Department, York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Objective: This single-arm effectiveness study explored changes in trauma-related symptoms-including dissociation, depression, anxiety, sexual issues and sleep disturbances-throughout a multimodal, phased trauma intervention, to explore treatment response in real-world settings with varied populations and complex clinical presentations, as well as varied degrees of clinician experience.
Method: Symptom change was assessed among participants undergoing a triphasic trauma therapy called trauma practice. Data were collected at five time points: pretreatment (n = 41), Phase 1 (n = 37), Phase 2 (n = 25), Phase 3 (n = 20) and follow-up (n = 16).

Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) have attracted attention due to their low cost and high specific surface area. In this work, a simple and inexpensive two-step synthesis method was proposed to prepare highly stable and well-dispersed spherical CuNPs in solution with a particle size of approximately 37 nm. Synthesis of CuNPs was carried on in the presence of complexing agent trisodium citrate (TSC), while for the chemical reduction step, sodium borohydride (NaBH) was used.
