This case report presents the clinical course of an eight-year-old boy diagnosed with febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) at the age of four. Following a febrile infection, the patient experienced his initial episode of serial general...

Background: Endovascular treatment of patients with chronic subdural hematoma using middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization could become an alternative to surgical hematoma evacuation. The aim of the study was to compare methods and identify param...

Canonical transient receptor potential channels (TRPCs) are a family of calcium-permeable cation channels. Previous studies have shown that heteromeric channels comprising TRPC1 and TRPC4 mediate epileptiform bursting in lateral septal neurons and hi...

In this study, the relationship between the duration of physical rehabilitation and occurrence of pneumonia after ischemic stroke was examined. We included 426,508 patients aged $\ge$75 years with acute ischemic stroke. A multilevel logistic regressio...

Coagulation and fibrinolytic system disorders are conditions in which the blood’s ability to clot is impaired, resulting in an increased risk of thrombosis or bleeding. Although these disorders are the expression of two opposing tendencies, the...

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) came into consideration in recent years as a promising, non-invasive form of neuromodulation for individuals suffering from mild cognitive impairment (MCI). MCI represents a transitional stage between no...

The Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor (CRST) is commonly used to evaluate essential tremor (ET) during focused ultrasound (FUS) thalamotomy. However, it faces challenges such as the ceiling effect and test–retest variability. This study explored...

Neuromonitoring is a critical tool for emergency rooms and intensive care units to promptly identify and treat brain injuries. The case report of a patient with status epilepticus necessitating orotracheal intubation and intravenous lorazepam adminis...

Introduction: Neurological consultation for patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 is common; it is currently unknown whether the neurologist’s approach to inpatient consultation of patients with SARS-CoV-2 should differ from the paradigm used to ev...

The clip-induced spinal cord injury (SCI) rat model is pivotal in preclinical SCI research. However, the literature exhibits variability in compression duration and limited attention to clip deformation-related loss of closure force. We aimed to inve...

Cognitive impairment is common in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI), impacting their daily functioning and rehabilitation. This study assesses the extent of self-reported cognitive failures in everyday life in persons with SCI and its relationshi...

The virus SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2) is capable of attacking the nervous system in several ways and leading to neurological diseases such as GBS (Guillain–Barré syndrome) through the resulting neurotropi...

Here, we present a case series of four patients diagnosed with acute ischaemic stroke due to occlusion of the artery of Percheron (AOP), a rare stroke variant, observed in a single emergency centre within a three-month period. AOP occlusion is charac...

Background: In this study, we aimed to investigate the incidence of fecal incontinence (FI) after severe acquired brain injuries (sABIs) and to determine whether this symptom can lead to an inability to return home after rehabilitation. Methods: This...

An object of the present study was the development of liposomes loaded with the medicine Veklury^® (remdesivir) stabilized by electrostatic adsorption of polysaccharide film formed from chitosans with different physicochemical characteristics and...

Chronic pain is a health problem that affects the ability to work and perform other activities, and it generally worsens over time. Understanding the complex pain interaction with brain circuits could help predict which patients are at risk of develo...

Visual–motor illusion (VMI) elicits kinesthetic sensation from visual stimulation. We have previously performed ankle motion VMI with resistance applied to the ankle joint on the paralyzed side (power-VMI (P-VMI)) and ankle motion VMI without r...

Ischemic myelopathy is uncommon in the pediatric population, with fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE) being one of its rarest causes. We present the case of an otherwise healthy 17-year-old student who experienced sudden onset of severe low-back pain a...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a metabolic disease reaching pandemic levels worldwide. In parallel, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD) are the two leading causes of dementia in an increasingly long-living Western society. N...

Autosomal dominant cerebral arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is an inherited vascular disease characterized by recurrent strokes, cognitive impairment, psychiatric symptoms, apathy, and migraine. Approximately...

The purpose of this study was to clarify changes in cough function in patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA). Seventeen probable patients with MSA were studied. Peak cough flow (PCF), respiratory function (percentage of vital capacity, percentag...

Stroke has become the first cause of functional disability and one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Therefore, it is of crucial importance to develop accurate biomarkers to assess stroke risk and prognosis. Emerging evidence suggests tha...

Ecchordosis physaliphora (EP) is a benign notochordal remnant, which is often an incidental finding; however, it can rarely present with neurological symptoms. We performed a systematic review of the literature for cases of symptomatic EP published i...
