Neurosurgical therapy possibilities in treatment of Huntington disease: An update

Abstract
Introduction: Huntington's disease (HD) is a hereditary condition caused by the expansion of the CAG trinucleotide in the huntingtin gene on chromosome 4, resulting in motor, cognitive, and psychiatric disorders that significantly impact patients' quality of life. Despite the lack of effective treatments for the disease, various surgical strategies have been explored to alleviate symptoms and slow its progression.

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and lymphocyte count as an alternative to body mass index for screening malnutrition in older adults living in the community

Abstract
Purpose: Accurate height and weight measurement can be challenging in older adults and complicates nutritional status assessment. Other parameters like the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the lymphocyte count (LC) could be an option to these measurements. We aimed to test these variables as subrogates of body mass index (BMI) or calf-circumference (CC) for malnutrition screening in community-dwelling older adults.

A randomized, placebo-controlled trial of purified anthocyanins on cognitive function in individuals at elevated risk for dementia: Analysis of inflammatory biomarkers toward personalized interventions

Abstract
Background: Dementia poses a significant global health challenge. Anthocyanins neutralize free radicals, modulate signaling pathways, inhibit pro-inflammatory genes, and suppress cytokine production and may thus have positive cognitive effects in people at increased risk of dementia. We aim to investigate the effects of purified anthocyanins on cognitive function in people at increased risk of dementia according to their inflammation status based on blood-based inflammatory biomarkers.

Prognosis recovery score of apical surgery Guided Bone Regeneration using cone beam computed tomography and digital bioinformatics

Abstract
Objective
Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is a dental surgical procedure that uses barrier membranes to prevent soft tissue invasion and conduct new bone growth. This study aimed to define a Prognosis Recovery score (PR score) to objectively classify post-surgery responders from non-responder patients who underwent GBR using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT).
