Decompressive craniectomy index: Does the size of decompressive craniectomy matter in malignant middle cerebral artery infarction?
CONCLUSION: In our series, the relation between bone flap size and theoretical maximum supratentorial hemicranium area (DCI) in patients with malignant MCA infarction was associated with prognosis. Further studies are necessary to confirm these findings.PMID:36600778 | PMC:PMC9805638 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_895_2022

Tetracycline-, Doxycycline-, Minocycline-Induced Pseudotumor Cerebri and Esophageal Perforation
AbstractTetracyclines are a class of broad-spectrum bacteriostatic antibiotics used to treat many infections, including methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus (MRSA), acne, pelvic inflammatory disease, chlamydial infections, and a host of zoonotic infections. These drugs work by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacterial ribosomes, specifically by disallowing aminoacyl-tRNA molecules from binding to the ribosomal acceptor sites. While rare, tetracycline antibiotics, particularly minocycline and doxycycline, are associated with an increased risk of developing esophageal perforation and pseudotumor cerebri (PTC, or idiopa...

Mechanical Thrombectomy for Pediatric Large Vessel Occlusions
ConclusionIn our meta-analysis, MT demonstrated a  promising safety and efficacy profile for pediatric patients, with consistently high efficacy outcomes and low complication rates. Our results support the utilization of MT in pediatric LVOs; however, prospective studies are still needed to further establish the role of pediatric MT as a first-li ne treatment strategy.

These ants are ballooning with microbe-killing honey
Buried deep underneath the red, sunbaked soil of Australia’s deserts are hidden treasure troves of honey. It’s not the delicacy produced by bees, but rather the only type of honey made by ants. It’s also, a new study confirms, a potentially powerful medicine with antimicrobial properties. Australia’s Indigenous peoples have long used honey from honeypot ants ( Camponotus inflatus ) to treat a variety of maladies, from sore throats to infected wounds. Now, Western scientists are finally getting up to speed. In a study published today in PeerJ , researchers show that the honeypot ant’s honey has...
