Aimed to investigate the safety, accuracy, and efficacy of stereo electroencephalography (SEEG) in children of various ages, with particular emphasis on those younger than 3 years. There is limited guidance regarding whether SEEG can conducted on very young children. ⋯ Robot-assisted SEEG were demonstrated to be safe, accurate, and efficient across different age groups of children. This technique is suitable for children younger than 3 years who have indications for SEEG placement.

Background: Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) is a major complication affecting patient prognosis during the period after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Although an increasing number of scientists have investigated the molecular biology of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) during OLT in animal and cellular models in recent years, studies using comprehensive and high-quality sequencing results from human specimens to screen for key molecules are still lacking. Aims: The objective of this study is to explore the molecular biological pathways and key molecules associated with HIRI during OLT through RNA sequencing and related bioinformatics analysis techniques. ⋯ In addition, core gene enrichment analysis after cytoHubba screening suggested that liver reperfusion injury might be associated with translation-related elements as a pathway together with protein translation processes. Machine learning with the weighted correlation network analysis screening method identified PTGS2, IRF1, and CDKN1A as key genes in the reperfusion injury process. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that the pathways and genomes whose expression is altered throughout the reperfusion process might be critical for the progression of HIRI during OLT.
