Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a high-risk signal of acute ischemic cerebrovascular diseases, indicates a significant increase in the risk of ischemic stroke, especially within 7 days.Risk assessment and stratification are important in patients with TIA.A variety of simple prediction scales were developed based on the risk factors for stroke in patients with TIA, such as the California scale, ABCD scale, and ABCD2 scale.Among them, the ABCD scale score is used most commonly, but as its application becomes more and more common, the defects of this scale are also increasingly apparent.In recent years, some derived scales of ABCD score were introduced in order to improve the sensitivity and specificity of prediction.This article reviews the evolution, contents, characteristics, and predictive value of the ABCD score and its derived scales in the prediction of stroke risk in patients with TIA.

Post-stroke depression (PSD) is the most common psychiatric disorder after stroke,and mood disorders are the main manifestations.Clinical investigation shows that the prevalence of PSD is as high as 30%-50%.It seriously affects the lives and work of patients,and brings serious impact and heavy economic burden on individuals,families,and the entire society.The discovery of serum biomarkers of PSD has provided a new direction for its diagnosis and treatment.This article reviews the serum biomarker of PSD.

Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) are a rare group of immune-mediated disorders that affect the central and peripheral neuromuscular system in association with cancer.If the limbal lobe system of the brain is involved,it will show paraneoplastic limbal encephalitis(PLE).The discern of patients with PNS is challenging since tumors causing paraneoplastic neurologic disorders are often asymptomatic and sometimes occult.We report a case of PLE with double positive anti-Hu and Yo antibodies,and further analyze and discuss it in conmbination with relevant literature to improve the understanding of the disease.

新冠病毒感染疫情严重威胁着世界各国人民的生命健康。目前,对病毒感染的防治研究主要集中在抑制病毒与分子受体的结合上。AXL作为新发现的严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2型(SARS-CoV-2)受体,在协助病毒感染人体呼吸系统中发挥着重要作用,是未来临床干预的潜在靶点。本研究对已发表的单细胞测序数据进行整理和分析,发现AXL在年轻人肺细胞中的表达水平明显高于老年人。人胚肺二倍体成纤维细胞(2BS)是衰老研究的公认细胞株。本文采用2BS细胞构建复制性细胞衰老模型,发现年轻细胞中AXL的蛋白水平明显高于衰老细胞,据此推测年轻人感染的风险可能更高,需要注意防护。我们发现一种羊栖菜褐藻多糖硫酸酯组分(SFW-3)可显著下调年轻2BS细胞中AXL的表达水平,表明SFW-3具有一定的抗SARS-CoV-2感染的研究价值,同时表明2BS细胞株也可作为潜在的SARS-CoV-2体外感染模型。
