Three cases in which drug-induced hyponatremia was improved by replacing carbamazepine with lacosamide.

Carbamazepine often causes drug-induced hyponatremia. Hyponatremia due to carbamazepine may be improved by changing to the same mechanism of action, lacosamide.

Congenital mirror movement: a study of functional MRI and transcranial magnetic stimulation.

Two male patients (a child and an adult) with congenital mirror movement were studied using functional MRI (fMRI) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Bilateral primary sensorimotor cortices were activated during unilateral hand gripping on fMRI when the child patient was 8 years old andthe adult was 37 years old. Bilateral motor evoked potentials were induced from the hand and forearm muscles after TMS of each hemisphere.
