Background: Agitation is a common and disabling symptom of Alzheimer's dementia (AD). Pharmacological treatments are recommended if agitation is not responsive to psychosocial intervention. Citalopram was effective in treating agitation in AD but was associated with cognitive and cardiac risks linked to its R- but not S-enantiomer.

Aim And Background: Although local anesthesia (LA) eliminates pain and instills a positive dental attitude, the physical appearance of its syringe is highly fear provoking and often intolerable. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the pain and fear perception in camouflaged syringe (CS) and vibration-assisted syringe (VA) when compared with conventional syringe and with each other (VACS) during local anesthetic administration in pediatric patients aged between 6 and 12 years.
Materials And Methods: Eighty-five subjects were randomly assigned into three groups: CS group ( = 7), VA group ( = 26), and VACS group ( = 27).

GATA2 deficiency is an autosomal dominant germline disorder of immune dysfunction and bone marrow failure with a high propensity for leukemic transformation. While sequencing studies have identified several secondary mutations thought to contribute to malignancy, the mechanisms of disease progression have been difficult to identify due to a lack of disease-specific experimental models. Here, we describe a murine model of one of the most common GATA2 mutations associated with leukemic progression in GATA2 deficiency, Gata2.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a multifaceted pathological condition resulting from external forces that disrupt neuronal integrity and function. This narrative review explores the intricate relationship between dietary macronutrients, gut microbiota (GM), and neuroinflammation in the TBI. We delineate the dual aspects of TBI: the immediate mechanical damage (primary injury) and the subsequent biological processes (secondary injury) that exacerbate neuronal damage.
