From Transmission to Disability: A Fractional Perspective on HBV Dynamics
Moving beyond classical epidemiological models, this work explores how infectious disease dynamics can be linked to long-term disability outcomes.
Expanding the Spectrum of Autoimmune Encephalitis — A Rare Anti-Recoverin Case
Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) continues to evolve as a diagnostic category, with emerging antibodies expanding both its clinical and mechanistic boundaries. This case report highlights a particularly rare and instructive entity: anti-recoverin antibody–associated autoimmune encephalitis.

When Seconds Matter: How Artificial Intelligence is Transforming Orthopaedic Emergencies
When seconds matter, decisions in orthopaedic emergencies mean the difference between recovery and disability. We explored how artificial intelligence is emerging as a powerful ally to help clinicians diagnose faster, triage better, and deliver safer, more precise care when it matters most.
Promising Breakthrough Treatment Offers New Hope for Spinal Cord Injury
The new treatment targets one of the main drivers of damage after spinal cord injury: excess glutamate, a natural signaling molecule that becomes toxic after trauma. This process, known as glutamate excitotoxicity, causes ongoing loss of nerve cells, inflammation, and worsening neurological damage
What national hospital data reveal about the growing burden of type 2 diabetes in Chile
Type 2 diabetes is rapidly increasing worldwide, yet hospitalization trends remain understudied in Latin America. Using national hospital data from Chile, our study explored recent trends in diabetes-related admissions and the complications driving this growing public health burden.
