Article Abstract
A case is presented in which pre-autopsy postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) revealed an unexpected brain abscess with a related frontal sinusitis and an erosion of the posterior wall of the frontal sinus. PMCT findings enabled the forensic pathologists to adapt protective measures during autopsy and protect their health from infection. Pre-autopsy PMCT has been also useful in the early differential diagnosis procedure. The complementary use of postmortem imaging and autopsy can improve the quality of forensic death investigations.

Repetition suppression, the reduced neural response upon repeated presentation of a stimulus, can be explained by models focussing on bottom-up (i.e. adaptation) or top-down (i.

The anomalous metal state (AMS), observed in "failed" superconductors, provides insights into superconductivity and quantum criticality, with studies revealing unconventional quantum phases like the Bose metal. Recently, layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) superconductors approaching the two-dimensional limit have garnered significant attention for the enhanced phase fluctuations and electronic correlations. Investigating AMSs in these systems, particularly in the absence of an external magnetic field, could offer valuable insights into the dimensionality-driven emergence of exotic quantum phenomena, including triplet Cooper pairing, phase fluctuation dynamics, and especially the recently discovered field-free superconducting diode effects.

Rationale: Systemic sclerosis (SS) is an immune-mediated connective disease characterized by skin fibrosis, microvascular damage, and multisystem manifestations. One of the most important processes in connective tissue disorders is vasculitis. The clinical findings can differ when the disease is presented with an antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody.

Neuropeptide Y-like Receptor 7 (NPYLR7) is required for this behavioral switch, but its physiological role and sites of action were unknown. We identify a specialized, non-neuronal population of -expressing cells in the rectal pads of the mosquito hindgut.

The leading cause of epilepsy-related mortality is sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), resulting from seizure-induced cardiorespiratory arrest by mechanisms that remain unresolved. Mutations in ion channel genes expressed in both brain and heart represent SUDEP risk factors because they can disrupt neural and cardiac rhythms, providing a unified explanation for seizures and lethal arrhythmias. However, the relative contributions of brain-driven mechanisms, heart-intrinsic processes, and seizures to cardiac dysfunction in epilepsy remain unclear.
