• Transient Psychotic Relapse Following COVID-19 in a Stable Schizophrenia Patient on Paliperidone Palmitate: A Case Report 30/12/2024
  Schizophrenia is a chronic psychiatric disorder marked by severe disturbances in thought, perception, and behavior. Long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics, such as paliperidone, are widely used to promote sustained remission and ensure medication adherence, especially in patients prone to relapse. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced unique challenges, with studies indicating that infections like COVID-19 may […]

• Reviewing advancement in <em>Mycoplasma pneumoniae</em> P30 adhesin protein provides insights for future diagnosis and treatment 30/12/2024
  Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a major pathogen that causes upper and lower respiratory tract infections in children, adolescents, and elderly individuals and can lead to pneumonia, intrapulmonary and extrapulmonary complications, and respiratory sequelae. M. pneumoniae must adhere to respiratory epithelial cells of a host for infection. The P1 and P30 proteins, as two adhesin proteins of […]

• Improving the early diagnosis and clinical outcomes of shock patients via laser speckle contrast imaging assessment of peripheral hemodynamics 30/12/2024
  Shock is defined as a critical circulatory failure that requires prompt diagnosis to optimize patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods have limitations, including contact-based measurements, high costs, and lengthy procedures. The study evaluated the efficacy of laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI), a noncontact technique, for assessing peripheral hemodynamics in shock patients. Results showed that LSCI accurately […]
