Changes in Immune‐Inflammation Status and Acute Ischemic Stroke Prognosis in Prospective Cohort
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Inflammation is a critical risk factor for poor outcomes in cerebral infarction. Prior studies focused primarily on baseline inflammation status, neglecting dynamic longitudinal changes. We try to investigate the association between immune‐inflammation status alterations and stroke prognosis, and evaluated three systemic biomarkers'

The Case of a 28‐Year‐Old Woman With Medically Refractory Focal Epilepsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We present the case of a 28‐year‐old right‐handed woman with medically refractory focal epilepsy. Her seizure semiology and electroencephalography (EEG) indicated a seizure onset zone in the right central‐parietal area. However, both MRI and PET scans were unremarkable, showing no focal lesions or areas of altered metabolism.
