Cryptosporidiosis in individuals with inflammatory bowel disease: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: Cryptosporidiosis is a leading cause of moderate-to-severe diarrhoea globally, and, while it is often self-limited, in immunocompromised individuals, the infection can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis might be missed or delayed in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) due to similar presentation, and these patients may also be on immunosuppressive therapies, increasing their risk of infection. Additionally, gastrointestinal infection and dysbiosis may be a risk factor for IBD.

Long-Term Outcome of Motor Functional Neurological Disorder After Rehabilitation.

Background And Purpose: Functional neurological disorder (FND) is defined as the presence of neurological symptoms that are inconsistent with a neurological disease. We performed a single-center retrospective study aimed at determining the long-term outcome of FND patients receiving inpatient rehabilitation and the predictors of a good outcome.

Methods: A multidisciplinary graded exercise program was provided with one or two daily physiotherapy and occupational therapy sessions on 5 days each week, as well as weekly psychological support.

Electrophysiological analysis of signal detection outcomes emphasizes the role of decisional factors in recognition memory.

Introduction: Event-related potential (ERP) studies have identified two time windows associated with recognition memory and interpreted them as reflecting two processes: familiarity and recollection. However, using relatively simple stimuli and achieving high recognition rates, most studies focused on hits and correct rejections. This leaves out some information (misses and false alarms) that according to Signal Detection Theory (SDT) is necessary to understand signal processing.

Panic Attack, Severe Hypophosphatemia and Rhabdomyolysis in the Setting of a Motor Functional Neurological Disorder.

(1) Background: panic attack is often regarded as a benign disorder with variable physical and psychological symptoms. (2) Case Presentation: We here report the case of a 22-year-old patient known for an episode of motor functional neurological disorder a year earlier who presented a panic attack with hyperventilation causing severe hypophosphatemia and rhabdomyolysis, as well as mild tetraparesis. Electrolyte disturbances quickly resolved after phosphate substitution and rehydration.
