This study explores the psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) associated with recreational ketamine use among young adults. Ketamine, initially introduced as an anesthetic, is now widely used recreationally for its dissociative effects, raising concerns about its impact on mental health. Ten participants aged 18-24, who used ketamine recreationally multiple times a week, were assessed using the Community Assessment of Psychic Experiences (CAPE-42).

Department of Anesthesiology, Air Force Medical Center, No.30 Fucheng Road, Haidian District, Beijing, 100142, China.
Background: Sufentanil is commonly used to induce general anaesthesia due to its rapid onset of action, strong analgesic effect, long-lasting effect, and stable haemodynamics; however, it often induces cough, increasing the risk of anaesthesia. This study aimed to investigate the preventive effect of low-dose esketamine on sufentanil-induced cough.
Methods: This randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study was conducted at the Air Force Medical Center between September 2023 and May 2024.
Peri-operative mental health interventions for surgical oncology patients: a narrative synthesis and meta-analysis.

Department of Psychiatry, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO, USA.
Introduction: Oncologic surgeries are common and rates of depression and anxiety are high in the peri-operative period, potentially interfering with successful recovery.
Methods: We conducted a narrative review and meta-analysis focusing on randomised controlled trials evaluating the effect of peri-operative mental health interventions on anxiety and/or depression in adult patients having oncological surgery. The review included studies published in the last 5 years, identified through EMBASE with no pre-specified criteria for the type of comparison or outcome.
Nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH), also known as glycine encephalopathy, is a rare inherited neurometabolic disorder caused by a deficiency in the glycine cleavage enzyme system (GCS), leading to the pathological accumulation of glycine in blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This case report details a neonate presenting with central apnea, profound hypotonia, and refractory seizures, alongside prenatal findings of polyhydramnios and hiccup-like fetal movements, all strongly suggestive of severe NKH. Diagnostic evaluation confirmed markedly elevated glycine levels in serum and CSF, with a CSF-to-plasma glycine ratio exceeding 0.
