OBJECTIVES:The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an easily accessible biomarker that has been shown to predict the prognosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. This study aimed to investigate the association between NLR on admission and within 24 hours after thrombolysis in A IS patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and the severity of stroke, infarction volume, hemorrhagic transformation (HT), and 90-day outcome. METHODS:Retrospective cohort study of 171 consecutive patients, the NLR value was calculated according to neutrophil and lymphocyte counts both on admission and after IVT. We defined the NLR value on admission as pre-IVT NLR and after IVT within 24 hours was defined as post-IVT NLR. We used the modified Rankin scale (mRS) to assess the 90-day outcome for AIS patients. Regression analyses were performed, adjusting for confounders. RESULTS:(1) Post-IVT NLR level was increased in the poor prognosis group, the moderate to severe group, large infarct volume group, and HT group. (2) In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the level of post-IVT NLR and post-IVT platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were correlated with the 90-day prognosis of AIS. Post-IVT NLR was an independent risk factor for predicting the prognosis of AIS patients with an adjusted OR of 1.212 (p = 0.001). Post-IVT NLR demonstrated superior prognostic accuracy compared to post-IVT PLR (AUC 0.738 vs. 0.601, p = 0.001), though remained inferior to NIHSS score (AUC 0.793) and infarction volume (AUC 0.808). CONCLUSION:Post-IVT NLR is related to the severity of stroke, infarction volume, HT, and 90-day outcome in AIS patients receiving IVT. Post-IVT NLR was an independent predictor (p = 0.001, OR 1.212) for predicting the prognosis of AIS.
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a peripheral neuropathy mediated by immunoglobulin G (IgG) autoantibodies, which can cause acute flaccid paralysis. Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a variant of GBS, and in some cases, MFS may overlap with GBS (MFS-GBS overlap syndrome), potentially delaying the disease’s progression. Apart from intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) and plasma exchange (PLEX), which are currently the clinical standard of care. However, at least 20–30
Background: The use of antidepressants, especially selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), has been linked to adverse effects on bone health, but findings are conflicting. This study aimed to quantify the associations between newer antidepressants and bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture risk through a comprehensive meta-analysis. Methods: Observational studies on the association between the use of novel antidepressants and BMD and hip fracture were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and Scopus. Random effects meta-analyses were conducted to pool results across the eligible studies. The heterogeneity, publication bias, and influence were assessed extensively. Results: 14 eligible studies with 1,417,134 participants were identified. Antidepressant use was associated with significantly lower BMD compared to non-use at all skeletal sites examined, with pooled standardized mean differences (SMD) ranging from –0.02 (total hip) to –0.04 (femoral neck). Importantly, antidepressant use was associated with a 2.5-fold increased risk of hip fracture (pooled odds ratio (OR) 2.50, 95% CI 2.26–2.76). While heterogeneity was detected, the overall findings were robust in sensitivity analyses. Conclusions: This meta-analysis provided strong evidence that novel antidepressants, especially widely used SSRIs, have detrimental impacts on bone health. The observed associations with decreased BMD and doubled hip fracture risk have important clinical implications.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the correlation between the urinary microalbumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) and the occurrence and severity of leukoaraiosis.METHODS:A total of 323 patients were retrospectively recruited. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were collected at the time of admission, and the UACR was calculated based on the levels of urinary microalbumin and creatinine. All patients showed improvement in cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination. The subjects were divided into leukoaraiosis and non-leukoaraiosis groups according to the results of the cranial MRI examination. According to the Fazekas standard score, the patients in the leukoaraiosis group were divided into the mild leukoaraiosis group: Fazekas (1-2 points), moderate leukoaraiosis group: Fazekas (3-4points); and severe leukoaraiosis group: Fazekas (5-6 points).RESULTS:A regression analysis was performed to adjust for confounding factors. (1) Compared with the non-leukoaraiosis group, UACR level was higher in the leukoaraiosis group at admission, and the difference between the groups was statistically significant (p < 0.05). (2) In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, UACR was correlated with the occurrence of leukoaraiosis, which may be an independent risk factor. (3) The UACR levels increased gradually in the mild, moderate and severe leukoaraiosis groups, and the difference was statistically significant (p< 0.05). (4) In the ordered multi-category logistic regression analysis, UACR was correlated with the severity of leukoaraiosis, which may be an independent risk factor.CONCLUSION:UACR is associated with the occurrence and severity of leukoaraiosis, and may be an independent risk factor.

PURPOSE:To characterize retinal capillary complexity by optical coherence tomography angiography in Parkinson disease. METHOD:Twenty-five Parkinson disease patients and 25 age- and gender-matched healthy controls were recruited. Optical coherence tomography angiography and optical coherence tomography imaged the superficial and deep retinal capillary plexuses and retinal structure. Retinal capillary skeleton density, retinal capillary perfusion density, and fractal dimension analysis of retinal capillary complexity were performed in the total annular zone and quadrant sectors. The thickness of retinal nerve fiber layer, ganglion cell layer and inner plexiform layer, and total retinal thickness were extracted from retinal structural images. Relationships among the retinal capillaries, retinal structure, and clinical parameters were analyzed. RESULTS:The superficial retinal capillary plexus in Parkinson disease patients had lower retinal capillary skeleton and perfusion densities and capillary complexity in the total annular zone and all quadrant sectors compared with healthy control subjects. The deep retinal capillary plexus retinal capillary complexity was decreased in the total annular zone and the superior and inferior quadrants. The retinal capillary complexity in the inferior quadrant was negatively correlated with the best-corrected visual acuity and disease duration (r = -0.61, r = -0.43, respectively, both P < 0.05). CONCLUSION:As determined by fractal analysis, retinal capillary complexity can be an objective biomarker in Parkinson disease.

Objective:To explore the effect of the BPPV precision manipulation treatment. Method:With 3D SLICER software we segment structure such as semicircular canal, eye ball, orbital and ear rod from MRI or CT volume data of patients which underwent MRI or CT scaning of inner ear, for measuring the spatial direction of semicircular canals and building semicircular canal modules with standard space coordinate system and embedding into 3D PDF files. Result:With the slice that divide the semicircular canal equally as the semicircular canal plane and the eyeball as reference object to determine whether it is symmetric, it is not only intuitive but also reliable for measuring the angle between the posterior semicircular canal. 3D PDF is intuitive, rotation angle can be adjusted according to the individual differences in the process of manipulation treatment, to observe and demonstrate the theoretical reduction effect before the actual operation. Conclusion:By reconstruction the three-dimensional semicircular canal structure from the inner ear image data of patients and measurement of the semicircular canal space direction, it is of a certain significance for BPPV precision manipulation treatment.

After treatment, the MCV and SCV of the observation group were higher than the control group,the difference were statistically significant(t=3.05,5.02,5.50,5.47,P<0.05). The total effective rate of the observation group was 93.33%, the control group was 73.33%, the total effective rate of the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=4.32,P<0.05).ConclusionThe treatment of butylphthalide combined with alpha lipoic acid on diabetic peripheral neuropathy is effective.
