Treatment of pediatric drug-resistant generalized epilepsy with responsive neurostimulation of the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus: A case series of seven patients.

Epilepsy Res

January 2025

Division of Pediatric Neurology, Department of Pediatrics, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, 8th Floor Faculty Pavilion, 4401 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, PA 15224, United States. Electronic address:

Purpose: Responsive neurostimulation of the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus (CM RNS) is being investigated for treatment of drug-resistant generalized epilepsy with promising results. The aim of this study is to report outcomes of seven patients with pediatric-onset drug-resistant generalized epilepsy, including both genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), who underwent treatment with bilateral CM RNS.

Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed for patients with drug-resistant generalized epilepsy who underwent treatment with bilateral CM RNS at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh from 2020 to 2022.

Exploring the dual roles of sec-dependent effectors from Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus in immunity of citrus plants.

Plant Cell Rep

January 2025

MOE Key Laboratory of Laser Life Science and Institute of Laser Life Science, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Laser Life Science, Guangzhou Key Laboratory of Spectral Analysis and Functional Probes, College of Biophotonics, School of Optoelectronic Science and Engineering, South China Normal University, Guangzhou, 510631, China.

The three SDEs of CLas were expressed in citrus leaves by AuNPs-PEI mediated transient expression system, and promoted the proliferation of CLas and inhibited citrus immunity. Huanglongbing (HLB) is the most severe bacterial disease of citrus caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas). CLas suppress host immune responses and promote infection by sec-dependent effectors (SDEs), thus insight into HLB pathogenesis is urgently needed to develop effective management strategies.

The causal association between cardiovascular proteins and diabetic nephropathy: a Mendelian randomization study.

Int Urol Nephrol

January 2025

Department of Nephrology, Jiangxi Medical College, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Nanchang University, Nanchang, Jiangxi, China.

Purpose: To clarify the causal association between cardiovascular proteins and diabetic nephropathy (DN) in Europeans.

Methods: The large genome-wide association study data of cardiovascular proteins and DN were used for this two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. We took the Inverse variance weighted (IVW) as the primary method.

Introduction: Since the dawn of the new millennium, Candida species have been increasingly implicated as a cause of both healthcare-associated as well as opportunistic yeast infections, due to the widespread use of indwelling medical devices, total parenteral nutrition, systemic corticosteroids, cytotoxic chemotherapy, and broad-spectrum antibiotics. Candida tropicalis is a pathogenic Candida species associated with considerable morbidity, mortality, and drug resistance issues on a global scale.

Methodology: We report a case of a 43-year-old man who was admitted to our hospital for further management of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia.
