In 2023, new diagnostic criteria were proposed to distinguish myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) from other inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system.With typical clinical presentation and neuroimaging features, the seropositive status of anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG (MOG-IgG) is essential for the diagnosis of MOGAD.Advances in cell transfection immunofluorescence assays have improved diagnostic accuracy in the last few years, but there are differences in the positive predictive value of serum MOG-IgG titers in the context of different MOGAD prevalence.Therefore, alternative diagnostic methods need to be further explored, and the clinical significance of low MOG-IgG titers should be carefully interpreted.In this review, the main clinical features, current understanding and challenges of MOGAD were discussed, including uncertainties about the specificity and pathogenicity of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein autoantibodies and the need to identify immunopathological targets for future therapies.Moreover, it is necessary to search for and validate biomarkers that can help diagnose and detect disease activity, and it is important to identify MOGAD patients who need long-term immunotherapy.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcomes of robot-assisted percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP)versus manual PVP in treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures(OVCF),and explore the advantages of robotic assistance for clinical decision-making.Methods Patients who underwent single-level PVP for OVCF at the Department of Joint Surgery and Bone Tumor,Beijing Shijitan Hospital,Capital Medical University,between April 2021 and April 2025 were enrolled.The robot group(n=29)and manual PVP group(control,n=88)were followed-up for 1 month.Parameters compared included:total hospital stay,operative time,cement volume,cement leakage rate,nerve injury rate,intraoperative fluoroscopy number,first-attempt success rate of puncture,postoperative versus preoperative anterior vertebral height difference,Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)and Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)scores preoperatively,at 1-day and 1-month postoperatively.Results No statistically significant differences existed in baseline characteristics(gender,age,fracture-to-surgery interval,and fracture distribution)between groups(P>0.05).The number of intraoperative fluoroscopy times and the ODI index on the first day after surgery in the robot group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05),and the first-attempt success rate of puncture was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the other parameters between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Both robot-assisted PVP and manual PVP have good clinical efficacy in the treatment of OVCF.Robot-assisted PVP can reduce the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy times and may have more advantages in improving the first-attempt success rate of puncture and early postoperative lumbar function.However,its reliability needs to be further verified through large-sample randomized controlled studies with multivariate analysis.

Psychotropic medication plays a crucial role in the field of mental illness,and the issues of drug efficacy and safety due to individual differences cannot be ignored.Genetic factors,especially the genetic poly-morphisms related to drug-metabolizing enzymes,drug action targets,and risk,have a significant impact on drug responses.Pharmacogenomics,by detecting genetic polymorphisms,can reveal a patient's inherited tend-encies towards drug efficacy,pharmacokinetic characteristics,and potential toxicity,thereby predicting the therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of drug treatment,and providing guidance for personalized therapy.Therefore,individualized medication based on pharmacogenomics helps to improve cure rates,reduce relapse rates,and decrease medical costs,which is of great significance to clinical medication in mental illness.
