Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a progressive cerebrovascular disorder that increases the risk of intracranial ischemia and hemorrhage. Timely diagnosis intervention can significantly reduce new-onset stroke in patients with MMD. However, current diagnostic methods are invasive expensive, non-invasive using biomarkers MMD rarely reported. To address this issue, nanoparticle-enhanced laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI MS) was employed to record serum metabolic fingerprints (SMFs) aim establishing method for Subsequently, model developed based on deep learning algorithms, which exhibited high accuracy differentiating group from HC (AUC = 0.958, 95% CI 0.911 1.000). Additionally, hierarchical clustering analysis revealed significant association between SMFs across different groups vascular cognitive impairment This approach holds promise as novel intuitive Furthermore, study may have broader implications other neurological disorders.

Various microbial communities reside in the gastrointestinal tract of humans and play an important role immunity, digestion, drug metabolism, intestinal integrity, protection from pathogens. Recent studies have revealed that gut microbiota (GM) is involved communication with brain, through a bidirectional network known as gut-brain axis. This involves humoral, immunological, endocrine, neural pathways. Gut dysbiosis negatively impacts these pathways, leading to neurological complications cognitive deficits. Both pre-clinical clinical demonstrated probiotics can restore healthy GM, reduce pH, inflammation pathogenic microbes gut. Additionally, improve cell-to-cell signaling increase blood-brain-derived neurotrophic factors. Probiotics emerge potential approach for preventing managing Despite promising findings, safety concerns possible risks probiotic usage must be closely monitored addressed. review article provides brief overview significance health.
