Hypothermia for neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy: Retrospective descriptive study of features associated with poor outcome.

Aim: To investigate the clinical, laboratory, electrophysiological, and imaging features associated with death or neurological impairment at 1 year of age in term neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) treated by therapeutic hypothermia (TH).

Methods: This was a single-center retrospective and descriptive study conducted over a period of 2 years. We included consecutive term newborns with moderate or severe HIE who were treated by TH initiated within the sixth hour after birth and continued for 72 h,.

Intracranial empyema complicating sinusitis in childhood: Epidemiology, imaging findings and outcome.

Background: To describe clinical presentations of intracranial sinusitis complications in childhood, their pitfalls and imaging findings.

Materiel And Methods: This retrospective IRB-approved single-center study included infants diagnosed with sinusitis and empyema and/or other intracranial complications who underwent imaging between September 2008 and September 2019. Three radiologists individually reviewed clinical charts and imaging findings, including sinusitis complications and at-risk anatomical variations.

Hemidystonia with polymicrogyria is part of ATP1A3-related disorders.

Introduction: Pathogenic variants in ATP1A3 cause various phenotypes of neurological disorders, including alternating hemiplegia of childhood 2, CAPOS syndrome (cerebellar ataxia, areflexia, pes cavus, optic atrophy, and sensorineural hearing loss) and rapid-onset dystonia-parkinsonism (RDP). Early developmental and epileptic encephalopathy has also been reported. Polymicrogyria has recently been added to the phenotypic spectrum of ATP1A3-related disorders.
