ABSTRACT Background and Aims Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) remains a major global health burden. Current therapies rarely achieve a functional cure due to low rates of HBsAg clearance, the persistence of the viral replication template—covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA)—and the need for lifelong treatment.

ABSTRACT A 62‐year‐old man presented comatose with pH 6.88 and no ingestion history. A point‐of‐care lactate above 31 mmol/L with a laboratory lactate of 0.8 mmol/L revealed a lactate gap, diagnosing ethylene glycol poisoning despite a near‐normal osmolar gap. High‐dose continuous renal replacement therapy corrected the acidosis; he survived.

ABSTRACT Acute pancreatitis can present with ST‐segment elevation and marked troponin elevation, mimicking acute coronary syndrome. In resource‐limited settings where coronary angiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, and serial high‐sensitivity troponin testing are unavailable, distinguishing acute myocardial injury associated with pancreatitis

Bilateral detection, prediction, and lateralization of seizures using white matter
Abstract Objective To determine how the corpus callosum handles interhemispheric seizure propagation and to assess its potential as a strategic recording locus for state‐dependent biomarkers. Methods Epileptiform activity was induced in vitro and in vivo using 4‐aminopyridine. Propagation dynamics were examined using cross‐correlation analysis.
