Co-existence of Acute Transverse Myelitis and Guillain Barre Syndrome in a Child Following Mumps Infection: A Case Report and Review of Literature |
Author : Rajniti Prasad, Pradhap K and Meenakshi Pandey |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The co-existence of Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) and GuillainBarre syndrome (GBS) as a result of auto antibodies directed
against self-neural antigens following mumps infection in children is rare. We present a 3-years boy admitted with weakness of both
lower limbs with provisional diagnosis of transverse myelitis based on clinical and MRI findings. The patient was treated with intravenous methylprednisolone without significant recovery. The diagnosis was later revised to include GBS on the basis of CSF analysis and neurophysiological evidence of acute motor axonal neuropathy. A dual pathology of ATM and GBS may require intensive therapy directed against both diseases. |

Metamorphosis of Acute to Chronic Pain: A Novel Era of Discoveries in the Field of Pain Medicine |
Author : Bilal F Shanti, Zaynab I Shanti and Ihsan F Shanti |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Chronic pain poses a tremendous burden on economies worldwide. It is among the top causes of work absenteeism. It costs the world hundreds of billions in losses. Pain physicians and other healthcare clinicians face major challenges in treating pain experienced by individuals with persistent pain. How acute pain becomes chronic offers so many theories but little solutions. It is a complexsyndrome as complex as pain pathophysiology. It encompasses complex sensory, immune inflammatory, and endocrine interactions at the levels of cerebrum, spinal cord, and peripheral levels. When repeated and/or continuous nerve stimulation precipitates a series of altered pain pathways, resulting in central sensitization and impaired central nervous system mechanisms. The discovery of the roles of PKMzeta, BDNF, and NGF is among the most important in the field of pain medicine. It is a matter of time that PKMzeta
inhibitors, BDNF and NGF modulators will lead us closer to discovering novel therapeutic agents that will block acute pain from becoming chronic. The goal of this manuscript is to review the latest and most interesting developments in this filed. |

A Case of Localized Amyloid Angiopathy Following Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage - Strong Evidence of Dysfunction of the Glymphatic System |
Author : Forshing Lui, Ning Zhong, Kaho Wong, Stella Knowlton, Jessa Alcaide and Michael Ysit |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :There are no lymphatics within the brain like other organs in our body with traditional anatomical understanding until Iliff and
Nedergaard demonstrated a system of cerebrospinal and brain interstitial fluid flow systems that appears to be similar to the lymphatic system in rodents. They created the term “glymphatics”. More recent studies by using MRI tracer studies in humans demonstrated evidences of a similar glymphatic system in humans. It is logical to believe that such a system functions as an important waste clearance system in health and disease. However, the function of such a system has been questioned by more recent studies. There has never been any real human case to confirm the pathophysiologically the dysfunction of such a system as the reason for the underlying disease. Furthermore, there has never been any explanation how beta-amyloid synthesized in the brain can be transported retrogradely to the small brain arteries and arterioles in amyloid angiopathy. |

Head Tremor in a Patient with Organophosphorus Poisoning |
Author : Sarath Aleti, Kamalesh Chakravarty, Alex Rebello and Sahil Mehta |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Objectives: Organophosphorus poisoning (OPP) may rarely present with delayed neurological manifestation like Parkinsonism or coma. Neck tremor in OPP has not been reported in literature till date.Methods: Patient presented to Emergency and was admitted in ICU and evaluated. Informed consent from patient and ethical clearance from institute has been obtained
Results: A 42 year old gentleman presented with diarrhea, sialorrhea, rhinorrhea, drowsiness and breathlessness after ingestion of organophosphorus (OP) compound for suicidal intent. He improved with decontamination, mechanical ventilation and atropine infusion. His atropine infusion was stopped. On 6th day of illness (video 1), he developed encephalopathy and a jerky movement of the neck in form of flexion and extension of the neck. His CEMRI Brain and spine and CSF were normal. EEG showed diffuse slowing. His cholinesterase levels done on day 13 were low. A possibility of OPP induced delayed encephalopathy and extra-pyramidal syndrome
was considered. He was restarted on atropine infusion and he improved (video 1). |

Impact of Delayed Elective Surgery During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Big Problems Require Big Solutions |
Author : Óscar Fernando Palomino-Mafla, Melissa Paola Pinto-Rosado, Andrea Juliana Bayona-Gamboa, Diana Karina Mena-Yi, Juan Pablo Correa-Gallego and Md Moshiur Rahman |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :During the development of the COVID-19 pandemic, surgical
sciences were one of the most affected fields in biomedicine glob-
ally. The fear of infection, the collapse of health care systems, the
redistribution of resources, the increase in costs, the depletion of
supplies, and confinement, among other aspects, caused a delay
in the management of patients with surgical pathologies requiring
immediate or elective care. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Visual evoked potential (VEP) is the electrical response of the occipital cortex that is elicited by visual stimulation.
They study macular and perimacular functioning as well as the conduction of visual pathways. They therefore contribute to the diagnosis of several diseases of the central nervous system such as Devic’s optic neuromyelitis and multiple sclerosis. Their standards vary from one laboratory to another due to the difference in conditions and stimulation materials. The objective of this study is to present the results of our laboratory comparative to others laboratories. |

Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy - A Family Case |
Author : Fan Yang, Tan Juan, Wang Xiao-Ming and Zhang Xiao-Dong |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy (FAP) is a relatively rare hereditary amyloidosis, which is an autosomal dominant genetic disease. It is a progressively worsening neurological disease with sensory, motor and autonomic neuropathy as the main manifestations. Patients often have obvious autonomic nervous function, heart, and eye involvement. It is rarer that the disease is manifested by pure peripheral nerve damage. This article reports a case of FAP with pure peripheral nerve damage to the family, in order to improve the neurologist’s understanding of the disease |
