..Little clinical improvement was observed with antibiotic therapy, but the neuroradiological course was favorable...

..0001). This temporal pattern has biologic plausibility because the inhibited platelets circulate in the blood for about 10 days...

..Using magnetization transfer imaging, very sensitive to macromolecular disruption, we investigated whether FLAIR normalization was a good marker for tissue full recovery...

..The current study uses state-of-the-art computerized ambulatory monitoring techniques to assess daily life depression symptoms following stroke and examines the evolution of depression levels over a three-month period...

..Both approaches found a dramatic LOX decrease. LOX deficiency has a major role in human arterial wall organisation during development. The suspected mechanism is an elastin or collagen polymer cross linking deficiency...

..The clinical presentation of primary cerebral lymphoma can take on many forms...

..Some of them have ophthalmological, mainly retinal, manifestations. Herein, we report on a family affected by vascular leukoencephalopathy and variable abnormalities of the anterior chamber of the eye...

..To evaluate the reproducibility of fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and four other magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences in the quantitative assessment of final cerebral infarct volume...

..We report on an uncommon manifestation of molecularly proven neuroacanthocytosis in a 32-year-old man in whom dyspnea with desaturation while awake accompanied by continuous involuntary belching were the major consequences of the disease...

..Electromyographic study revealed a bilateral facial dystonia. The association of this bilateral facial dystonia and vertical gaze palsy produced the aspect of a "risus sardonicus."..

..However they unusually dominate the clinical picture. OBSERVATION: We present a case of recurrent catamenial encephalopathy, with epileptic seizures, revealing a menses toxic shock syndrome...

..Stroke in patients with malignant tumor are associated with various aetiologies. We report a case of lung adnocarcinoma with pulmonary vein thrombosis appending into the left atrial revealed by multiple cerebral infarcts...

..We evaluated the additive accuracy of the Triage Stroke Panel (D-dimer, B-natriuretic peptide, matrix metalloproteinase 9, and S-100beta) to the triaging nurse for acute stroke diagnosis...

..To investigate the wide variability of ocular manifestations associated with mutations in the COL4A1 gene that encodes collagen IValpha1...

..These findings do not support a vascular mechanism in SMART syndrome. Postradiation neuronal dysfunction may be the underlying mechanism. Further investigations on larger series are needed to confirm this hypothesis...

..These results support the idea of a critical role for dopamine in the control of executive functions in patients with PD...

..They show that apparent diffusion coefficient restriction of the corpus callosum and cortical lesions were associated with a higher mortality rate and more severe cognitive sequelae...

..However, little is known about the reliability of this classification and its extension to MRI. Our objective was to compare the inter- and intraobserver reliability of this classification on CT and 3 MRI sequences...

..Here, we described a 64-year-old woman with molecularly proved TRPS I and several atypical late-onset rheumatologic and neurological symptoms...

..Postprandial hemodynamic disturbances have been previously described. We report a case of postprandial transient ischemic attacks...

..We report a case of long-term improvement (8 years) of THS after low-dose (20 Gy) radiotherapy in a patient with recurrences and corticodependence...

..We report two patients who experienced stroke induced by spontaneous calcic emboli from a calcified aortic valve and underline the importance of brain CT scan...

..Vascular parkinsonism is also a research field on the relationships between vascular brain lesions and neurodegenerative disorders...

..Data from the literature indicate that actinomycosis is a potential cause of several neurological manifestations. Unusual but treatable, actinomycosis is a potential alternative when the main etiologies have been ruled out...

..RESULTS: We found a vasogenic oedema that disappears after treatment. CONCLUSION: This case report confirms the interest of spinal cord diffusion and ADC maps to differentiate vasogenic and cytotoxic oedema at the spinal cord level...

..This observation illustrates "lymphomatosis cerebri," a recently described entity, which has to be considered in the differential diagnosis of rapidly progressive dementia in adults...

..Altogether, our results suggest that, in vivo, windup also depends on the amplification properties of spinal neurons, the triggering of which requires previous activation of NMDA receptors...

..However, in advanced IAAED, the deficit in SSAO expression could be secondary to the decrease and fragmentation of elastic fibers and/or to vascular smooth muscle cell dedifferentiation...
