Diagnosis of Coxiella burnetii Prosthetic Joint Infection Using mNGS and ptNGS: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 15, Issue 1, Page 371-376, January 2023., 2023
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) caused by Coxiella burnetii is rare and has atypical clinical symptoms and can cause missed diagnosis. Molecular diagnostic techniques metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) and pathogen‐targeted next‐generation sequencing (ptNGS) are important tools for diagnosing C.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Involvement of inflammation in the medial temporal region in the development of agitation in Alzheimer's disease: an in vivo positron emission tomography study

open access: yesPsychogeriatrics, Volume 23, Issue 1, Page 126-135, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background The evaluation of 11C‐DPA‐713 binding using positron emission tomography for quantifying the translocator protein can be a sensitive approach in determining the level of glial activation induced by neuroinflammation. Herein, we aimed to investigate the relationship between regional 11C‐DPA713‐binding potential (BPND) and ...

Decreased homovanillic acid and 5‐hydroxyindoleacetic acid levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Dravet syndrome with parkinsonism

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Dravet syndrome (DS) is an early onset, developmental, and epileptic encephalopathy characterized by drug‐resistant seizures and multiple comorbidities. It has been reported that in adulthood, it may be accompanied by parkinsonism, but the pathogenesis of this condition remains unclear.

Facilitators and barriers to neurologist referral of patients for epilepsy surgery evaluation

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy surgery offers a potential cure for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE), yet surgery is underutilized. An estimated 5% of patients with DRE undergo long‐term EEG monitoring (LTM) annually, the requisite first step of evaluation for surgical candidacy.
