Radiomic Features as Artificial Intelligence Prognostic Models in Glioblastoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Glioblastoma, the predominant primary tumor among all central nervous systems, accounts for around 80% of cases. Prognosis in neuro-oncology involves assessing the disease's progression in different individuals, considering the time between the initial pathological diagnosis and the time until the disease worsens. A noninvasive therapeutic approach called radiomic features (RFs), which involves the application of artificial intelligence in MRI, has been developed to address this issue.

Introduction: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a significant and transforming event, with an estimated annual incidence of 40 cases per million individuals in North America. Considering the significance of accurate diagnosis and effective therapy in managing SCI, Machine Learning (ML) and Robot-Assisted Gait Training (RAGT) technologies hold promise for enhancing optimal practices and elevating the quality of care. This study aims to determine the impact of the ML and RAGT techniques employed on the outcome results of SCI.

Particular Surgical Technique for Transorbital-Penetrating Craniocerebral Injury Inflicted by a Screwdriver: Technical Case Report.

Surgical techniques for non-missile penetrating brain injuries (PBI) are challenging because they require good preoperative planning. Generally, extraction is performed ipsilaterally at the entry site. In certain cases, the extraction can be performed contralaterally through the inner end of the foreign body; however, this requires special consideration.

The effects of statin therapy on aneurysm size, growth rate, and matrix metalloproteinases-9 levels in patients with aortic aneurysm: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Aortic aneurysm enlargement over time causes rupture, which frequently results in death. The family of proteases known as matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) is assumed to be proteolytic activity involved in the growth of aortic aneurysms. Statins are pleiotropic lipid-lowering medications with anti-inflammatory action.

Modification of palm fiber with chitosan-AESO blend coating.

Natural fibers are available as an essential substitute for synthetic fiber in many applications. However, the sensitivity of Chinese Windmill Palm or Trachycarpus Fortune Fiber (TFF) to water causes low interfacial bonding between the matrix and the fiber and at the end reduces the mechanical properties of the composite product. Alkaline treatment improves mechanical properties and does not affect water absorption.

Effect of MLC901 on MIR30C-5P expression, TGF-Β expression, VEGF receptor expression, degree of axon demyelination and changes in neuropathic pain behaviour in experimental animals experiencing neuropathic pain with circumferential spinal stenosis method.

Neuropathic pain is a major problem whose pathogenesis is not known yet, which makes it difficult to treat. Effective treatment of neuropathic pain usually uses multimodal therapy that takes a long time but causes major health problems, which are commonly found in women over 50 years of age and are generally caused by lumbar radiculopathy due to lumbar spinal stenosis. The narrowing of the spinal canal resembles an ischemic condition that can increase the expression of VEGF in the dorsal root ganglion and then result in shortened walking distance (intermittent claudication).
