Depression is a clinically heterogeneous disorder comprising subtypes such as melancholic, atypical, anxious, and unspecified, each characterized by distinct symptom profiles and treatment responses. Accurate identification of these subtypes is essential for precision psychiatry and optimizing therapeutic outcomes. This study investigates the potential of quantum-inspired feature representations to enhance the classification of depression subtypes from clinical data. A synthetic dataset of 5000 ...

Major depressive disorder (MDD) has been repeatedly linked to disruptions of the gut brain axis (GBA), yet practical decision systems that convert multi-omics patterns into patient-specific guidance remain limited. We present an end-to-end, explainable pipeline that learns putative GBA signatures of MDD from synthetic data and translates model attributions into hypothesis-driven nutritional and pharmacological suggestions. We simulated a cohort of N = 1,500 individuals (30% MDD) comprising 200 m...

Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) remains one of the most challenging subtypes of major depressive disorder, affecting approximately one-third of patients and leading to significant morbidity, healthcare costs, and reduced quality of life. Predicting TRD onset and progression is complex, as it requires integrating heterogeneous biomarkers spanning neuroimaging, genomics, and clinical history. This study presents an Enhanced Multimodal Transformer (EMT) designed to fuse functional magnetic res...

Cognitive impairment is a frequent and debilitating outcome of stroke, profoundly affecting patient independence, recovery trajectories, and long-term quality of life. Despite its prevalence, accurate early prediction of post-stroke cognitive decline (PSCD) remains an unmet challenge due to the multifactorial interplay between structural brain lesions, neurophysiological changes, and diverse clinical comorbidities. In this study, we present a multimodal deep learning framework designed to classi...

Early detection of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a critical yet unresolved challenge in neurology, as subtle cognitive and linguistic impairments often emerge years before formal diagnosis. Traditional approaches, including neuroimaging and cognitive testing, are limited by cost, invasiveness, and low sensitivity at prodromal stages. Speech and language markers have recently emerged as promising, non-invasive digital biomarkers that can be continuously monitored in naturalistic settings. In this s...

Accurate prediction of antidepressant treatment response remains a major challenge in psychiatry, particularly across diverse patient populations where genetic, demographic, and clinical characteristics vary substantially. In this study, we evaluate the potential of transfer learning to enhance predictive performance across heterogeneous cohorts. We generated a synthetic, population-stratified dataset representing four major demographic groups, European, East Asian, African, and Latin American, ...

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a prevalent psychiatric condition requiring long-term pharmacological management, with escitalopram often prescribed as a first-line treatment. However, optimizing antidepressant dosing remains challenging due to heterogeneous patient responses, complex symptom trajectories, and variable tolerance to side effects. This study presents a Reinforcement Learning (RL) framework for dynamic dose adjustment, trained within a simulated patient environment designed to c...

Holoprosencephaly (HPE) is a severe congenital brain malformation characterized by incomplete division of the prosencephalon, with the alobar form being the most severe and usually incompatible with long-term survival. Most affected infants die in utero or in the early neonatal period, and those who survive typically show profound neurodevelopmental impairment with minimal progress. Here, we report the case of a male child with MRI-confirmed alobar HPE who presented with seizures, gastroesophage...

Cerebral vasculitis is an uncommon but severe manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), often associated with complex management and unfavorable outcomes due to its neurological impact. We describe the case of a 32-year-old male with SLE who developed recurrent seizures and progressive cognitive decline. Clinical evaluation, laboratory investigations, and neuroimaging supported the diagnosis of lupus-related cerebral vasculitis. Despite aggressive immunosuppressive therapy, the patien...

Introduction: Myasthenia gravis is a neuromuscular junction disorder characterized by fatigability, muscle weakness affecting the oculomotor, bulbar, and skeletal muscles, worsening with exertion and resolving at rest. It is an autoimmune neurological disease that can be life-threatening due to respiratory muscle damage. Clinical Case: This is a 20-year-old male XL patient with no particular history who presents with muscle fatigue during exercise associated wit...
