Stroke
September 2025
Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China (H.Z., K.H., Q.G.).
Background: Poststroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) affects 30% to 50% of stroke survivors, severely impacting functional outcomes and quality of life. This study uses functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to assess task-evoked brain activation and its potential for stratifying the severity in patients with PSCI.
Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Nanchong Central Hospital between June 2023 and April 2024.
Brain Spine
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway.
Purpose: Isolated spinal aneurysms (iSAs) are rare, with an uncertain natural history and no established treatment guidelines. Multiple iSAs are even more uncommon, complicating treatment decisions.
Methods: This study reports a case of a ruptured radiculo-pial artery aneurysm in a patient with multiple iSAs, treated with surgical excision, assisted by intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM).
Clin Interv Aging
September 2025
Department of Nephrology, Huadong Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, People's Republic of China.
Objective: This study evaluates cardiac function in older adults with T2DM and preserved LVEF using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography to explore the risk factors associated with subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction (GLS <18%) in this population.
Methods: All patients (n = 87, aged 60 years and above) and controls (n = 20) underwent clinical assessment and echocardiography, including GLS assessment.
Results: Univariate analysis identified gender (OR 3.
J Ophthalmic Vis Res
August 2025
Ocular Tissue Engineering Research Center, Research Institute for Ophthalmology and Vision Science, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Purpose: To report a case of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) initially presenting as orbital involvement, describe its successful management, and provide a comprehensive literature review.
Case Report: A 33-year-old female patient presented with swelling, redness, tenderness, and a mass under the left upper eyelid for one month. Upper lid eversion showed a multilobulated lesion in the subconjunctival area of the same region.
Rev Cardiovasc Med
August 2025
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Fuwai Hospital, National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, 100037 Beijing, China.
Background: Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) commonly occurs following surgical repair of degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) and is associated with unfavorable outcomes. This study aimed to identify preoperative risk factors for acute POAF in patients undergoing mitral valve repair for DMR, with a specific focus on the role of preoperative echocardiography.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted involving 1127 DMR patients who underwent mitral valve repair between 2017 and 2022.
