Post‐mortem CT detection of fatal air embolism after aerosolized fibrin glue for bladder bleeding
Abstract Radiation‐induced hemorrhagic cystitis (RHC) is a severe complication of pelvic radiotherapy, often used to treat various pelvic malignancies. Despite multiple therapeutic options, including conservative and invasive interventions, the optimal management remains uncertain. We report the case of a 76‐year‐old male with pulmonary emphysema and a

Abstract This study investigated Theory of Mind (ToM) deficits in patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition affecting motor, cognitive and autonomic functions. Given the overlap between ToM‐related neural networks and those affected in iNPH, we examined whether ToM impairments are a feature of the disease ...

Decrease of excessive daytime sleepiness after shunt treatment for normal pressure hydrocephalus
Summary Sleepiness and apathy are often reported in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus. However, research on outcomes after shunt surgery has mainly focused on the classical triad symptoms, that is, gait, cognition, and bladder dysfunction. This study aimed to describe the effects of shunt treatment on excessive daytime sleepiness and whether ...

ABSTRACT A 71‐year‐old woman presented with acute muscle weakness and paresthesia in her left lower limb with the preceding back pain and impaired deep sensation. Although initial brain and spinal MRI were normal, follow‐up spinal MRI confirmed the left‐sided posterior lesion at T10 to T12 vertebral level, leading to the diagnosis of posterior spinal ...

Cortical Somatostatin Neurons Regulate Seizure Susceptibility via MINAR1/Gαs–cAMP Signaling
Our study identifies MINAR1 as a novel regulator of cortical interneuron excitability and seizure susceptibility. MINAR1 is preferentially expressed in SST+ interneurons. Genetic ablation of MINAR1 leads to seizure hypersensitivity, reduced SST+ neuron excitability, and impaired Gαs–cAMP signaling, disrupting the E/I balance.

This Mendelian randomization study reveals that normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) causally leads to lower levels of the neurotrophins CNTF and GDNF. This finding provides new genetic evidence for the role of neurotrophic factors in NPH, suggesting potential avenues for further research into prevention and treatment strategies.
