A Comprehensive Study of Risk Factors, Etiology, and Infarction Patterns in Cerebrovascular Accidents at a Tertiary Care Hospital in India.

Background Stroke is a debilitating cerebrovascular condition characterized by sudden neurological deficits. The incidence of stroke is rising in India, posing significant public health concerns. This study aims to examine the risk factors and etiology of stroke using the Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment (TOAST) classification and analyze infarct areas in cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) at a tertiary care hospital.

Study of Biochemical Predictors of Early Neurological Deterioration in Ischemic Stroke in a Tertiary Care Hospital.

Background and objective Early neurological deterioration (END) following acute ischemic stroke (AIS) poses a significant clinical challenge, often leading to increased disability and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the association between specific biomarkers (lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), ferritin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), homocysteine) and the occurrence of END in ischemic stroke patients in a tertiary care hospital. Materials and methods A cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted at Dr.

Exploring Treatments for a Rare Guillain-Barré Variant: A Case Report of Miller-Fisher Syndrome.

The symptoms of Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS) are a triad of areflexia, ataxia, and ophthalmoplegia. The condition is a rare variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), an acute immune-mediated nerve disorder. Both conditions involve abnormal autoimmune responses that may often be triggered by infections such as , human immunodeficiency virus, Epstein-Barr virus, and Zika virus, among others.

Cross-Sectional Study Comparing Activities of Daily Living Using Barthel Index Within a Geriatric Population Having Non-Communicable Diseases.

Introduction Disabilities and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are prevalent among the elderly, significantly affecting their quality of life. Comprehensive population-based data are essential for effective healthcare planning and rehabilitation. This study aims to determine the prevalence of self-reported disabilities and compare Barthel Index scores among elderly individuals with and without NCDs.
