Clinicoradiologic Correlation in 22 Egyptian Children With Megalencephalic Leukoencephalopathy With Subcortical Cysts.

Megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (MLC) is a rare genetic form of cerebral white matter disease whose clinicoradiologic correlation has not been completely understood. In this study, we investigated the association between clinical and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features in 22 Egyptian children (median age 7 years) with MLC. Gross motor function was assessed using the Gross Motor Function Classification System, and evaluation of brain MRI followed a consistent scoring system.

[A video-based analysis to classify shoulder injuries during the Handball World Championships 2015].

Injuries play a major role in high-performance sports and occur in training and competition. Handball is a team sport with high physical demands, and the measurement of specific loads has the potential to identify risk factors for injuries. Few studies have identified this in handball during a World Cup.

Metabolic profile of oxidative stress and trace elements in febrile seizures among children.

Febrile seizures (FS) are frequent convulsive disorders, occurring in infants and young children. The present study aims to assess and compare the serum levels of oxidative stress markers and some essential trace minerals in FS with normal or abnormal EEG and evaluate the effect of antioxidant therapy on the clinical outcome. This study has been carried out on 80 children with FS (40 with simple FS and 40 with complex FS) and 40 febrile children without seizures.
