Objective To investigate the clinical features，laboratory findings，and prognosis of patients with autoimmune encephalitis positive for leucine rich glioma inactivated 1（LGI1）antibody. Methods We reviewed the clinical data of 11 patients with anti-LGI1 encephalitis hospitalized in Fu Yang People's Hospital from October 2019 to December 2024. Results All the 11 patients（100%）had cognitive function involvement，9（81.8%）had epileptic seizures，5（45.5%）had mental and behavioral abnormalities，4（36.4%）had sleep disorders，3（27.3%）had autonomic nervous dysfunction，2（18.2%）had faciobrachial dystonic seizures（FBDS），2（18.2%）had facial numbness，and 1（9.1%）had phantosmia and pruritus in both eyes and the neck. LGI1 antibody was positive in the serum of all the cases（100%）and present in the cerebrospinal fluid of 8 cases（72.3%）. Seven cases（63.6%）had hyponatremia，and 5 cases（45.5%）also had hypophosphatemia，hypocalcemia，and hypomagnesemia in addition to blood sodium lower than 134 mmol/L. Intracranial abnormalities were detected in 7 cases（63.6%）on magnetic resonance imaging. Electroencephalogram abnormalities were recorded in 6 cases（54.5%）. After immunosuppressive treatment，2 cases（18.2%）had recurrent symptoms，and 2 cases（18.2%）had residual mild memory impairment. In terms of prognosis，the modified Rankin Scale scores were generally favorable. Conclusion Anti-LGI1 encephalitis manifests as convulsions，FBDS，memory decline，mental and behavioral abnormalities，autonomic nervous dysfunction，sleep disorders，hyponatremia，and multiple electrolyte disorders such as hypomagnesemia，hypocalcemia，and hypophosphatemia when blood sodium is below 134 mmol/L. The prognosis with immunosuppressive treatment is favorable，but recurrent symptoms may occur.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Panlongqi tablets in the treatment of fractures based on real-world research. METHODS From September 2021 to September 2023， fracture patients admitted to 33 medical institutions were collected retrospectively. Patients who received conventional treatment were divided into control group （n＝3 750）， and patients who received combination of Panlongqi tablets on the basis of conventional treatment were divided into observation group （n＝ 3 706）. Self-reported indicators of patients were collected through telephone follow-up at 0， 4， 7 and 14 days after treatment. The improvement values of pain score， swelling score and health utility value， as well as effective rate and adverse drug reactions were compared between 2 groups. The propensity matching score （PSM） method was adopted to perform baseline matching on patient’s age， gender， fracture site， fracture severity， surgical type， type of hospital， and other indicators. Statistical analysis was performed on each therapeutic effect indicator. RESULTS After PSM， a total of 6 425 patients were included， of which 3 055 were in the observation group and 3 370 were in the control group. After 14 days of treatment， the observation group showed significant improvement in pain score （4.768 vs. 4.353）， swelling fangshiyuan2008@126.com grading score （2.979 vs. 2.391）， and life quality utility value （0.430 vs. 0.363）， as well as effective rate （87.20% vs.75.99%） compared to the control group （P＜0.05）. The results of subgroup analyses conducted by gender， age， hospital type， and fracture site were consistent with the aforementioned results. In terms of safety， the observation group had no serious adverse reactions， with a total of 29 cases of mild adverse reactions such as dizziness， stomach pain， and allergies， with an incidence rate of 0.78%. CONCLUSIONS Panlongqi tablets combined with conventional treatment are significantly better than conventional treatment in improving pain， swelling， quality of life， and effective rate in patients with fractures， and have good safety.

BackgroundThe issue of depression among adolescents is becoming increasingly serious， seriously endangering their healthy development. The issue of sleep disturbances in adolescents with depressive disorder is gradually receiving attention， but there is currently a lack of research on the relationship between sleep quality and suicide risk in this patient population. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between suicide risk and sleep quality in adolescents with depressive disorders， and analyze the influencing factors of suicide risk， so as to provide references for clinical intervention. MethodsA total of 101 adolescents patients who met the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder in the International Classification of Diseases， 10th edition （ICD-10） and were hospitalized at Hefei Fourth People's Hospital from June 2020 to February 2023 were selected. The patients were evaluated using the Nurses' Global Assessment of Suicide Risk （NGASR） and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）. According to the NGASR score， patients were divided into severe suicide risk group （n=35） and non-severe suicide risk group （n=66）. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between sleep quality and suicide risk in adolescents with depression. Multiple Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of severe suicide risk in adolescent patients with depression. ResultsStatistically significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of academic pressure， peer relationship and family relationship （t=3.942， 4.378， 6.748， P<0.05）. Moreover， there was a statistically significant difference in PSQI score between two groups （t=7.398， P<0.05）. There was also a statistically significant difference in sleep quality between the two groups （χ²=4.986， P<0.05）. Pearson correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between total PSQI score and NGASR score （r=0.698， P<0.05）. Severe depression （OR=1.628， 95% CI： 1.079~2.457）， high academic pressure （OR=1.118， 95% CI： 1.018~1.228） and poor sleep quality （OR=1.158， 95% CI： 1.033~1.297） were identified as risk factors of severe suicide risk， while good relationships with classmates （OR=0.908， 95% CI： 0.826~0.998） and family （OR=0.904， 95% CI： 0.823~0.993） were protective factors. ConclusionSleep quality in adolescents with depression is negatively correlated with suicide risk and poor sleep quality may be a risk factor for severe suicide risk.

With the continuously deepening integration of artificial intelligence technology and medicine, its application in the diagnosis and treatment of intracranial aneurysms is becoming increasingly widespread. This article reviews the current application status of artificial intelligence technology in the diagnosis and treatment of intracranial aneurysms.

The incidence of osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral fracture (OTLVF) in the elderly is gradually increasing. The kyphotic deformity caused by various factors has become an important characteristic of OTLVF and has received increasing attention. Its clinical manifestations include pain, delayed nerve damage, sagittal imbalance, etc. Currently, the definition and diagnosis of OTLVF with kyphotic deformity in the elderly are still unclear. Although there are many treatment options, they are controversial. Existing guidelines or consensuses pay little attention to this type of fracture with kyphotic deformity. To this end, the Lumbar Education Working Group of the Spine Branch of the Chinese Medicine Education Association and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized the experts in the relevant fields to jointly develop Clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral fractures with kyphotic deformity in the elderly ( version 2024), based on evidence-based medical advancements and the principles of scientificity, practicality, and advanced nature, which provided 18 recommendations to standardize the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Liver cancer is the most lethal form of cancer and carries a high risk of death around the world. Goniothalamin (GTN) is a styryl-lactone that possesses antiproliferative and apoptotic activity. The molecular action of GTN is not yet fully evaluated. Thus, our research has been intended to assess the chemopreventive and apoptotic activities of diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in rats. Rats were separated into 4 groups: control, DEN only, DEN + GTN (30 mg/kg bw), and GTN (30 mg/kg bw) alone. We evaluated body weight, liver weight, tumor incidence, hepatic toxic markers, antioxidants, inflammatory cytokines, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot studies. DEN lessened body weight, antioxidants, and apoptosis, whereas it elevated tumor incidence, toxic markers, cytokines, and Bcl-2 expression. GTN treatment maintains body weight, liver weight, and antioxidant levels, and it also prevents tumor incidence, oxidative stress, toxic markers, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and histological changes. It triggers apoptosis by constraining Bcl-2 and elevating caspase-3 levels. GTN also attenuated the P13K/ AKT signaling which enhanced apoptosis. These findings revealed that GTN subdues the P13K/AKT pathway and has auspicious chemopreventive and apoptotic actions in DEN-induced HCC. Therefore, GTN would be suggested as a new medicine in natural remedies for liver cancer.
