Assault‐on‐Law‐Enforcement: The Complications of Charges for Individuals on Mental Health Court Dockets

Steven Keener, Audrey Morrison

ABSTRACT Background Mental health courts divert individuals with serious mental illness away from imprisonment into community‐based treatment and supervision. Early research indicates that such treatment contracts can reduce recidivism and provide various other benefits. Aspects of eligibility for this diversion option are still under‐researched. Aims To explore the nature of alleged offences against people accepted into mental health courts (on mental health court dockets), and their demographic and mental health …

Multimodal AI and Machine Learning for Predictive Risk Stratification, Early Detection, And Clinical Management of Pica: Integrating Etiological and Pathophysiological Biomarkers

Yash Srivastav, Stuti Verma, Kamini Prajapati, Sandeep Prakash, Rajeev Kumar, Anubha Dhuriya, Anup Kumar Sirbaiya, Shivani Singh

Pica is a clinically significant and often overlooked feeding and eating disorder in which individuals have a persistent urge to eat or chew non-nutritious or non-food items and is linked to nutritional, hematological, behavioral, and environmental issues. Human studies have regularly found links between pica and iron deficiency and anemia, as well as between changes in hematological parameters, decreased ferritin, and decreased zinc concentrations; toxic-element exposure may also be a part of certain behaviors (li …

From Intelligent Operating Room to Smart ICU: Digital Continuity, AI-Supported Decision-Making and CRRT as a Model of Pharmacokinetic Personalization in Critical Care

Leonard Azamfirei, Mirela Cecilia Oiaga, Mihai Claudiu Pui

Critically ill patients frequently move between the intensive care unit (ICU) and the operating room while remaining dependent on ventilatory, hemodynamic, antimicrobial, sedative, analgesic, and renal support. Although extensive perioperative data are generated, clinically relevant information may remain fragmented across devices and electronic systems. This narrative review synthesizes the literature published primarily between 2016 and 2026 on perioperative digital continuity, structured ICU–operating room hando …

Early Versus Late Biliary Leakage After Hepatic Resection: Incidence, Risk Profiles, and Clinical Impact of Diagnostic Timing

Giacomo Paolini, Luca Tirloni, Ilenia Bartolini, Matteo Risaliti, Nicola Nocchi, Alessio Morandi, Maria Novella Ringressi, Antonio Taddei, Gian Luca Grazi

Background/Objectives: Post-hepatectomy biliary leakage (BL) remains a major source of postoperative morbidity. While traditional risk models treat BL as a single clinical entity, its chronological presentation follows distinct patterns that raise the hypothesis of distinct underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. This study aimed to stratify post-hepatectomy biliary fistulas into early and late onset to identify unique independent risk factors and clarify their separate risk profiles. Methods: This retrospective …

Factors Influencing the Uptake of Health Care Services Among Undergraduate Students of Kwara State University, Malete, Kwara State

Okunade O. Oluwole

Background: Healthcare services are the activity undertaken by individuals who perceive to have a health problem or to be ill for the purpose of finding an appropriate remedy. Traditional herbal medicines have been used to treat malaria for thousands of years and are the source of the two main groups (artemisinin and quinine derivatives) of modern antimalarial drugs. With the problems of increasing levels of drug resistance and difficulties in poor areas of being able to afford and access effective antimalarial dru …

Activation of silent synapses driven by emerging technologies: mechanisms, disease associations, and prospects for clinical translation

Yongli Li, Yong Liao, Shouyao Zhang, Chenggui Xu, Ruhua Lan, Pengbin Zhao, Ruilu Liu, Yongli Song, Xinghe Zhang

Silent synapses represent a unique class of synaptic connections that are non-functional at rest but possess the potential to become functional, serving as a critical reservoir for neural plasticity. Their activation mechanisms not only challenge traditional models of synaptic maturation but also provide novel insights into brain function regulation and disease pathology. This article provides a systematic review of the regulatory mechanisms underlying silent synapse activation, encompassing pre-synaptic calcium si …

When digital engagement becomes dysregulated: associations with aggression, achievement motivation, and academic performance in adolescents

Minghua Dong, Huitao He, Bowen Wei

Introduction Adolescents are embedded in digital environments that are increasingly central to social, academic, and emotional life. Yet the developmental implications of digital engagement remain contested, particularly when exposure metrics such as screen time are used as primary indicators. The present study examined digital engagement as a multidimensional construct while treating regulatory difficulty—the dimension most directly reflecting impaired control and difficulty disengaging—as the focal predictor of a …
