Background: Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) deposition disease at the craniocervical junction (CCJ) typically presents with a retro-odontoid pseudotumor. Here, the authors report a case of CPPD-induced basilar impression, causing vertebral artery (VA) dissection and hemorrhage.
Observations: A 65-year-old male presented with worsening chronic cervicalgia, occipital headaches, and unstable tandem gait.

Background: Surgical management of thoracolumbar fractures in patients with ankylosing spinal disorders such as ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis remains debated. Although several studies have compared minimally invasive surgery to open fixation of thoracolumbar fractures in this patient population, a meta-analysis compiling the literature on this topic is lacking.
Methods: Following the PRISMA guidelines, PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar (pages 1 to 20) were accessed and explored until October 2024.

Introduction: This study aimed to examine the impact of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection on the occurrence and prognosis of Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP).
Methodology: A total of 120 children diagnosed with HSP were selected as the experimental group, and 100 healthy children who underwent physical examinations were the control group. We compared renal function markers and quantified 24-hour urine protein in HSP children with different EBV infection statuses, and analyzed the association between EBV infection and Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN).

Determination of evolutionary mechanisms underlying innovative traits is crucial for understanding the vast diversity of species and phenotypes. Given their respiratory physiologies, fishes are compelling subjects for evolutionary analysis of the hemoprotein-based oxygen-transport systems. Asian noodlefishes (Osmeriformes: Salangidae) and Antarctic icefishes (Notothenioidei: Channichthyidae) are examples of fish clades that generally do not express myoglobin or hemoglobin.

Eight-week-old female Sprague-Dawley rats underwent bilateral ovariectomy using the dorsal approach to establish a postmenopausal osteoporosis model. Different doses of Chai hu oral liquid were administered by oral gavage for 12 consecutive weeks, followed by evaluations of bone microstructure and measurements of inflammatory cytokine levels.
