Brexpiprazole is a second-generation antipsychotic with multiple indications, including the treatment of schizophrenia. As a partial dopamine agonist, brexpiprazole differs from most other antipsychotics, yet uncertainties about its full mechanism of action have led to some ambiguity among prescribers. To address this gap, an international panel of psychiatric experts was organized and convened with funding from Otsuka Pharmaceutical Europe Ltd and H.

Introduction: This study utilized electroencephalography (EEG) to compare brain functional and effective connectivity patterns in children with reading difficulties (RD) and math difficulties (MD) during specific tasks. The aim was to identify neurophysiological distinctions between these two learning disorders, which often exhibit high comorbidity.
Methods: Data from a publicly available dataset of 28 children (11 RD, 17 MD) aged 7-13 years were analyzed.

Parapharyngeal space (PPS) tumors are extremely rare in the pediatric population, accounting for a small fraction of all head and neck neoplasms. The majority of neoplasms in the PPS are benign tumors. We present a case of an eight-year-old male with a large PPS ganglioneuroma, who presented with a neck mass that had been progressing over five years with no symptoms of dysphasia.

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great promise for treating a variety of human diseases; however, their clinical translation is hindered by challenges in large-scale expansion while preserving therapeutic potency and maintaining small cell size. Conventional 2D culture on rigid substrates induces MSC senescence and enlargement, compromising their function and biodistribution.
Methods: We present an alternating 2D/3D culture strategy that combines adherent monolayer expansion with transient spheroid formation to mitigate these limitations.
