Reactivating Sleeping Intramedullary Nail in a 16-Year-Old Female with Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia: A Case Report on Complications and Potential Solutions.

Background: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare condition in which normal spongy and cortical bone is replaced by non-neoplastic fibrous tissue, leading to weakened bone matrix and increased risk of pathological fractures and deformities. Treating these deformities poses a significant challenge for surgeons. While various cases of surgical stabilization and limb lengthening using intramedullary nails have been reported, there is limited evidence on the use of Motorized Intramedullary Limb-Lengthening Nails (MILLNs) in FD patients.

Relationship Between DWI-Based Acute Ischemic Stroke Volume, Location and Severity of Dysphagia.

Background/objectives: The impact of stroke location and volume on the development of post-stroke dysphagia is not fully understood. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between acute ischemic lesions and the severity of dysphagia.

Methods: Brain MRIs were obtained with a 1.

In Web We Trust: The Promised Cannabidiol Effects on Obesity as a Matter of Language and Marketing on Webpages.

Background: Today more and more people search the web for health-related information, risking to come across misinformation and biased content that may affect their treatment decisions. Cannabidiol (CBD) is among the products for which beneficial effects have been claimed, often at the expense of the risks; further keeping in mind unreliable information reported on products themselves.

Objective: This study evaluated the quality of information retrieved by Google on the potential effects of CBD on weight management, also comparing Italian and English contents, hypothesizing generally low quality and language-driven differences in offered information.

The perivascular spaces in young and middle-aged stroke: A single-center analysis integrating clinical and Doppler ultrasound findings.

This research seeks to investigate correlations between enlarged Perivascular Spaces (PVSs) and clinical/imaging data, such as information obtained through Doppler analysis, in a population with young and middle-age stroke. We retrospectively reviewed demographics, clinical and MRI data, of 163 patients, with MRI confirmed stroke. All patients underwent ECD TSA (Eco-Color-Doppler of the Supra-aortic Trunks) and TCCD (Transcranial Eco-color-Doppler), to study extra or intracranial stenosis, presence and composition of plaques.

Distinguishing seizures in autoimmune limbic encephalitis from mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis: Clues of a temporal plus network.

Objective: Diagnosing autoimmune limbic encephalitis (ALE) in adults with new-onset seizures can be challenging, especially when seizures represent the predominant manifestation and MRI findings are not straightforward. By comparison with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE-HS), this study aimed to identify ictal electro-clinical features that might help clinicians recognize ALE-related seizures.

Methods: This retrospective, multi-centre study analysed the ictal semiology and EEG correlate of 116 video-EEG-captured seizures in 40 ALE patients and 45 ones recorded in 21 MTLE-HS subjects.
