BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Central retina imaging is important for early Parkinson's disease (PD) recognition. We aimed to investigate central retina changes using spectral domain-optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in PD patients. METHODS: We systematically searched PubMed and EMBASE to identify studies comparing the…

BACKGROUND: Non-headache literature inevitably influences headache research, but the way this interdisciplinary interaction occurs has seldom been evaluated. OBJECTIVE: Utilizing network analysis techniques within the PubMed Central (PMC) database, we illustrate a novel method by which to identify and characterize the…

Central obesity is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, and is a risk factor for cardiometabolic syndrome. The Mediterranean diet pattern has a convincing evidence-base for improving cardiometabolic health. This review investigated the impact of Mediterranean diet interventions on central obesity, specifical…

INTRODUCTION: Metastases to the central nervous system may occur with tumours of any primary origin. Brain (cerebral) metastases may be either single or multiple, with or without disseminated disease elsewhere. Brain metastases may present with focal or generalised symptoms, although up to one third of people may be as…

BACKGROUND: Few resources exist to support finding journals that accept case reports by specialty. In 2016, Katherine Akers compiled a list of 160 journals that accepted case reports, which many librarians continue to use 7 years later. Because journals' editorial policies and submission guidelines evolve, finding publ…

OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationship of napping with incident diabetes risk and glycaemic control in people with diabetes. DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library were searched for studies published from database inception to 9 M…

Febrile seizures (FSs) occur in children older than 1 month and without prior afebrile seizures in the absence of a central nervous system infection or acute electrolyte imbalance. Their pathogenesis is multifactorial. The most relevant familial studies evidence an occurrence rate ranging from 10% to 46% and median rec…

AIMS: The incidence of obesity increases annually. It is closely related to the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases, malignant tumors, etc., and has become a major global health problem. 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), a multifunctional monoamine neurotransmitter, is dispersed throughout the central nervous system and di…

Humans receive information from their environment via the visual and auditory systems. This information protects us from dangers and guarantees vital actions, such as social interaction, locomotion, work processes and nutrition. The most important anatomical and functional features of these two sensory systems are comp…

BACKGROUND: The use of digital technology has exponentially increased over recent years. Intraoral scanners, especially, have gained traction within orthodontics. The objective of the present review is to investigate the available evidence to create an up-to-date presentation of various clinical aspects of intraoral sc…

BACKGROUND: The G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) is a mammalian orphan receptor that awaits a formal classification. There are an increasing number of reports directed to know the physiology and pathophysiology of this receptor. Lamentably, its functions in the central nervous system (CNS) have been scarcely eluci…

Zika virus (ZIKV) infection is a well-nurtured topic for healthcare personnel nowadays. Central nervous system involvement including microcephaly and ocular involvements has already been reported in neonates of affected pregnant ladies. In this article, we have discussed these effects on the newborns of ZIKV-infected m…

OBJECTIVES: Elevated waist circumference results from an excessive accumulation of visceral fat, causing an impairment of health. Waist circumference is highly correlated with diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and all-cause mortality. This study aimed to estimate the overall, sex-specific, and region-specific prevalenc…
