Patient Agitation in the Intensive Care Unit: A Concept Analysis
ABSTRACT Aim Exploring the concept of patient agitation in the intensive care unit. Background Patient agitation in the intensive care unit is of widespread concern and linked to negative outcomes for patients, staff, and family members. There is currently no consensus on what constitutes agitation in the intensive care context, hindering effective and

Purkinje Cell Loss in Essential Tremor: Collective Data From 215 Brains Over a 21‐Year Period
ABSTRACT Objective Essential tremor is a highly prevalent movement disorder. Pathological changes observed in essential tremor cerebella center around Purkinje cells and neighboring neuronal populations. Postmortem studies have variably, but not always, shown reduced Purkinje cell counts in essential tremor compared to controls.

Metformin Restores Mitochondrial Function and Neurogenesis in POLG Patient‐Derived Brain Organoids
Patient‐derived POLG‐mutant cortical organoids reveal neuronal subtype‐specific mitochondrial and synaptic defects, with dopaminergic neurons most affected. Metformin treatment restores neuronal identity, mitochondrial function, and excitability, increased mtDNA maintenance, and reprogrammed metabolism via TCA and redox pathways.

Abstract INTRODUCTION The alterations of regional brain iron in patients with metabolic syndrome (Mets) and its relationship with cognitive function remain unclear. METHODS These analyses utilized data from two prospective cohorts, from the UK Biobank (UKB) (21,346 participants) and from Jinan, China (224 participants). We capitalized brain iron in the
