Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a rare and frequently misdiagnosed disorder characterized by a low volume of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) caused by the leakage of CSF through the spinal dural membrane. Patients with Marfan Syndrome (MS) and other connective tissue disorders are at an increased risk for dural ectasia, which may predispose...

Empirical studies have indicated that cardiometabolic multimorbidity risk profiles are upsurging among the South African population. However, there is a limited number of studies that have been conducted to validate these findings in rural communities. To study the prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors of females residing in rural Glendale in ...

When integrating visual and somatosensory processing into the subjective postural vertical using the Romberg test, patients with hemiplegic can be sorted into either post-stroke or pushers with unilateral spatial neglect (USN). This study aimed to clarify the characteristics of the integrated processing of the integrated subjective postural vertica...

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques are designed to precisely and selectively target specific brain regions, thus enabling focused modulation of neural activity. Among NIBS technologies, low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) has emerged as a promising new modality. The application of tFUS can safely and non-invasively st...

Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder and the leading cause of dementia worldwide, profoundly impacts health and quality of life. While cognitive impairments-such as memory loss, attention deficits, and disorientation-predominate in AD, motor symptoms, though common, remain underexplored. These motor symptoms, incl...

Water consumption is believed to be a key factor in weight management strategies, yet the existing literature on the subject yields inconsistent findings. To systematically assess the scientific evidence regarding the effect of water intake on adiposity, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) among...

Y-chromosomal short tandem repeats (Y-STRs) are widely used in forensic, genealogical, and population genetics. With the recent increase in the number of rapidly mutating (RM) Y-STRs, an unprecedented level of male differentiation can be achieved, widening and improving the applications of Y-STRs in various fields, including forensics. The growing ...
