Article Abstract

Routine electroencephalograms (EEGs) assess brain function, but can be time-consuming, resource-intensive and setting-restrictive. Brain vital signs (BVS) evaluation, derived from EEG-based event-related potentials (ERPs), offers a rapid, standardized evaluation of cognitive function. In this study, 20 outpatients with cognitive complaints underwent both routine EEGs and BVS evaluation. While only 4 participants showed abnormal EEG results, 11 had at least one of the six BVS out-of-range, suggesting increased sensitivity to cognitive impairment. This commentary discusses the feasibility and potential value of standardized BVS evaluation as a simple objective method for cognitive function evaluation.

Large-scale genome simplification represents a fundamental goal in synthetic biology. Baculoviruses, with their biphasic life cycle and inherent genomic plasticity, have emerged as ideal models for synthetic genome engineering. Although modified baculovirus genomes are widely used as expression vectors for robust recombinant protein production, many genomic regions are dispensable for in vitro budded virus (BV) production.

Background: Episodic migraine is a prevalent and disabling neurological disorder with a significant impact on quality of life and productivity. Preventive treatment aims to reduce the frequency, intensity, and disability associated with migraine attacks. However, the comparative efficacy and safety of available preventive strategies remain insufficiently addressed in the literature, especially in low- and middle-income countries.

Oral mucositis (OM) is a severe inflammatory condition of the oral mucosa that is commonly associated with cancer therapies. Traditional treatments typically have limited efficacy and significant side effects, necessitating alternative approaches. Nanobased drug delivery systems (DDSs) present promising solutions, enhancing therapeutic outcomes while minimizing side effects.

Background: Mycosis fungoides (MF), the most prevalent cutaneous T cell lymphoma, features clonal CD4⁺ T cell proliferation within a Th2-dominant microenvironment. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) promotes disease progression while Brentuximab Vedotin (BV), an anti-CD30 antibody-drug conjugate, shows efficacy but faces resistance challenges.

Methods: We conducted a narrative literature review (2010-2024) synthesizing evidence on IL-4 signaling and BV's efficacy in MF to develop a theoretical framework for combination therapy.
