Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of different electromagnetic therapies for the treatment of post-stroke insomnia (PSI). Thus, we conducted a network meta-analysis to provide evidence-based insights for clinical practice.

Methods: Databases such as PubMed, Excerpt Medica Database (Embase), Cochrane Library Central Register of Controlled Trials, APA PsycInfo, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, Wanfang, and SinoMed were used to retrieve randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on electromagnetic therapy for PSI, with a search deadline of Sep 2024 for each database.

Article Synopsis
  • China's designation as malaria-free has led to increased concern about imported malaria cases affecting reestablishment; this study explores machine learning’s role in assessing these risks.
  • Data on imported malaria cases from 2011 to 2019 was analyzed, using R for data processing and ArcGIS for visualization, resulting in a clean dataset of 765 entries from 85 countries.
  • The Random Forest machine learning model outperformed others, with a 95.3% accuracy in predicting risks for 2019, highlighting its potential for effective risk assessment and control strategies for imported malaria in China.

Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of different traditional Chinese and western medicine rehabilitation techniques on motor dysfunction after stroke using a network meta-analysis.

Methods: CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases were searched from inception to September 2022. We independently searched and screened randomized controlled trials of rehabilitation techniques for poststroke motor dysfunction treatment, evaluated the quality, and analyzed the data using Stata 14.

Objective: To study the neuroprotective effect of inhalation of volatile oil of Cang Ai (VOCA) on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model by MRI diffusion tensor imaging.

Methods: Twenty-four healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model (middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) ) group and VOCA group. Evaluated the degree of neurological impairment of rats in each group immediately after successful establishment of model or 7 d later according to Zea Longa scoring.
