Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of Pipeline embolization device (PED) Shield in intracranial unruptured saccular aneurysms.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study; 124 patients with intracranial unruptured saccular aneurysms treated with PED Shield at Department of Cerebrovascular Surgery, Neurosurgery Center, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University from July 2023 to October 2024 were enrolled. Intraoperative device-related complications and occurrence of hemorrhagic and ischemic complications within 30 days of the procedure were recorded. The clinical results and imaging results (degrees of stent patency and aneurysm occlusion rate) 6 months after follow-up were statistically analyzed. Modified Rankin scale (mRS) score>2 was defined as poor prognosis in clinical follow-up, and grade D according to O'Kelly Marotta (OKM) classification was considered as complete aneurysm occlusion in imaging follow-up.Results:Eighty-seven females and 37 males, aged (56.44±12.17) years (ranging from 27 to 80 years) were enrolled, with a maximum aneurysm diameter of 5.12 (3.73, 7.24) mm. Among the 124 patients, incidence of intraoperative instrument-related complications was 6.5% (8/124); and within 30 days of the procedure, incidence of ischemic complications was 4.8% (6/124) and that of hemorrhagic complications was 1.6% (2/124). Eighty-four patients had a 6-month clinical follow-up, with 1 patient (1.2%) having poor prognosis. Eighty-four patients (67.7%) completed a 6-month imaging follow-up: complete occlusion rate of aneurysms was 82.1% (69/84), incidence of in-stent stenosis (stenosis degree ≥25%) was 4.8% (4/84), and no symptomatic in-stent stenosis was found.Conclusion:Result of this study shows that PED Shield may be an effective and safe clinical option for intracranial unruptured saccular aneurysms.

Objective To develop an automated system that can accurately determine the relationship between the mandibular third molar and the mandibular nerve canal from panoramic images.Methods A dataset consisting of 600 panoramic images of the oral cavi-ty was selected,and the positions of the mandibular third molar and the mandibular nerve canal were accurately labeled.We compared the research designed TI-YOLOv5 with PANet,Faster R-CNN,Mask R-CNN,ResNeSt-101,and the original YOLOv5 in image seg-mentation tasks,with evaluation metrics of AP and AP50.Results TI-YOLOv5 achieved AP(average precision)54.0％and AP5094.9％,an increase of 4.9 and 6.7 percentage points respectively compared to the original YOLOv5(AP 49.1％,AP50 88.2％),and surpassed other SOTA methods such as Mask R-CNN(AP 45.1％,AP50 84.2％).Conclusion TI-YOLOv5 is significantly superior to mainstream networks in automatic positioning and relationship classification of mandibular wisdom teeth and neural tubes,with high de-tection accuracy and discrimination accuracy,and can provide reliable technical support for preoperative risk assessment of mandibular wisdom tooth extraction.

Objective:To investigate the causal impact of maternal smoking around birth(MSAB)on off-spring's risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD),autism spectrum disorder(ASD),bipolar disorder(BD),and major depressive disorder(MDD).Methods:The datasets for MSAB and 4 psychiatric disorders were extracted from genome-wide association studies(GWAS).Mendelian randomization(MR)was employed,using in-verse variance weighting(IVW)as the primary analysis method.Sensitivity analyses and outlier correction were conducted using weighted median(WM),MR-Egger regression,and MR-PRESSO.The results were expressed as odds ratios(OR)and corrected for false discovery rate(FDR).Results:MR analysis showed significant causal re-lationships between MSAB and increased risk of ADHD(OR=5.36,95％CI=2.58-7.63,PFDR=0.003),MDD(OR=1.92,95％CI=1.29-2.88,PFDR=0.003),and BD(OR=6.33,95％CI=1.56-8.73,PFDR=0.013).However,no statistically significant association was found between MSAB and ASD(OR=1.66,95％CI=0.23-5.87,PFDR=0.616).Conclusion:This study suggests a potential causal link between maternal smoking around the time of birth and an increased risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,bipolar disorder,and major depressive disorder in offspring.

Objective:To explore the clinical features of nivolumab-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN).Methods:Relevant databases at home and abroad (as of December 31, 2023) were searched to collect case reports of nivolumab-induced SJS/TEN, and the demographic characteristics, nivolumab application, combination drugs, clinical manifestations, intervention measures, and outcomes were extracted and analyzed descriptively and statistically.Results:A total of 27 case reports were included and 29 patients were enrolled in the study, including 18 males and 11 females. The age ranged from 45 to 86 years, with an average age of 67 years. The primary diseases were mainly melanoma, stomach cancer, and lung cancer. Twelve patients had records of nivolumab administration, and the dosage was within the recommended range in the labels; 13 patients had records of combination drugs, mainly other antineoplastic drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, antihypertensive drugs, lipid-regulating drugs, etc. The time from using nivolumab to the diagnosis of SJS/TEN was 7 d to 3 years, and 20 patients were <8 weeks. The clinical manifestations were mainly diffuse erythema, flaky skin peeling and erosion, mucosal involvement, etc. Sixteen patients had skin biopsy records, all of which met the histopathological characteristics of SJS/TEN. After the diagnosis of SJS/TEN, 17 patients discontinued nivolumab and received symptomatic treatments, of which 15 patients had improved skin symptoms, one patient had worsened skin symptoms, and one patient had no record of skin outcome; 12 patients had no record of whether or not discontinuing nivolumab, of which 8 patients had improved skin symptoms, 2 patients had worsened skin symptoms, one patient had no record of skin outcome, and one had no record of prognosis. One patient rechallenged nivolumab, severe SJS/TEN recurred. Thirteen of 29 patients died. Of them, 1 died due to cardiac arrest, 4 due to worsened skin rash, and 8 due to primary disease progression.Conclusions:SJS/TEN caused by nivolumab mostly occurs within 8 weeks of treatment, and the clinical manifestations were similar to those caused by other drugs. The mortality rate of nivolumab-induced SJS/TEN is high, and skin rash could be improved after withdrawal of nivolumab and symptomatic treatments.
