Background: : With more than 60 million new cases around the world each year, traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes substantial mortality and morbidity. Managing TBI is a major human, social, and economic concern. In the last 20 years, there has been an increase in clinical trials in neurocritical care, leading mostly to negative results.

Background: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) can lead to sudden cardiac death. The role of ventricular tachycardia ablation (VTA) in CS has been investigated in a few small, single-center, and larger observational studies, but the evidence still needs to be provided. This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of VTA in patients with CS admitted with a diagnosis of VT.

Background: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) significantly contributes to increased morbidity, reduced life expectancy, and higher healthcare costs due to the burden of comorbidities. This study assessed the prevalence of comorbidities in PsA patients in India and explored the influence of age and disease duration on these comorbidities.
Methods: The prospective, multicenter observational study was conducted across seven centers in India, utilizing data from the Indian Rheumatology Association.

Background: Older adults with epilepsy represent the largest and fastest-growing segment of individuals with epilepsy and harbor risk factors for pathological aging, including cerebrovascular risk factors (CVRFs) and Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related pathology. In fact, several community-based studies have reported up to a 3-fold increased risk for dementia including AD among individuals with epilepsy. Despite this, identification of risk factors for AD and related dementias (ADRD) remains largely unexplored in epilepsy, which has critical implications for patient care and dementia risk stratification.

Background: Few population-based prospective studies have investigated whether the prevalence, incidence, and survival rate of dementia in a community have changed since the 2010s.
Method: Seven cross-sectional surveys of dementia were conducted among residents of a Japanese community, aged ≥65 years, in 1985, 1992, 1998, 2005, 2012, 2017, and 2022. We also established three cohorts consisting of the residents of this age group without dementia in 1988 (n = 803), 2002 (n = 1,231), and 2012 (n = 1,521) and each was followed for 10 years.
