Prototheca, a genus of opportunistic pathogenic microalgae, can cause protothecosis in humans and animals, manifesting as cutaneous lesions or disseminated/systemic infections. This report describes a rare case of Prototheca wickerhamii toe infection in a 78-year-old Chinese male, presenting initially as gouty arthritis. The patient, who worked in fish farming with frequent water exposure, had a history of herpes zoster and hypertension.

Speech brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) offer a solution for those affected by speech impairments by decoding brain activity into speech. Current neuroprosthetics focus on the motor cortex, which might not be suitable for all patient populations. We investigate potential alternative targets for a speech BCI across a brain-wide distribution.

Purpose: To report a rare case of bilateral idiopathic multifocal retinal pigment epithelial detachments (imfPEDs) and to describe the long-term morphological and functional changes observed over a 16-year follow-up period.
Methods: A 49-year-old woman was diagnosed with imfPEDs based on multimodal imaging, including optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography (FA), and fundus photography. Full-field electroretinograms (ffERGs) and multifocal ERGs (mfERGs) were recorded to assess retinal function.

Purpose: To determine the proximity between the thinnest corneal point (TCP) and focal corneal weakening in normal, subclinical keratoconus (SKC), and manifest keratoconus (KC) eyes using motion-tracking Brillouin microscopy.
Design: Prospective cross-sectional study.
Participants: Ninety-five eyes from 95 patients were evaluated: 40 from bilaterally normal patients (controls), 40 from patients with SKC, and 15 from patients with manifest KC.

Objective: To analyze the clinical value of single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT), ambulatory electroencephalogram (AEEG) and three-dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (3D-pCASL) in people with epilepsy (PWE).
Methods: The study included 98 PWE who were treated in The General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from December 2021 to September 2023. The positive detection rates and characteristics of SPECT/CT, AEEG and 3D-pCASL were compared.
