Cutaneous Anaplastic T-Cell Lymphoma Mimicking a Small Abscess: A Case Report.

Non-healing ulcers display a noteworthy demonstrative challenge for clinicians. While often attributed to common causes like infections, these persistent wounds can occasionally mask a more sinister underlying condition: malignancy. This case report presents a 39-year-old Indian man with a non-healing ulcer on his right gluteal region.

Efficacy of pregabalin, amitriptyline, and gabapentin for neuropathic pain.

Neuropathic pain largely influences the well-being of patients. Anticonvulsant and antidepressant medications, such as Pregabalin, Gabapentin, and Amitriptyline, are routinely prescribed as initial treatments for neuropathic pain. The study sample has a total of 270 patients who meet the inclusion criteria and are further distributed into three equally sized groups (A, B, and C).

Late-Onset Leigh Syndrome With Protracted Gastrointestinal Manifestations: A Rare Case Report.

Although Leigh syndrome (LS) is a neurodegenerative disorder of infancy, adult-onset LS has also been rarely reported. We report a case of late-onset LS in a 42-year-old female who presented with protracted gastrointestinal manifestations, chronic headaches, ataxia, and loss of consciousness. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed hyperintensities in the bilateral basal ganglia and brain stem.

Comparison of the efficacy of propranolol versus amitriptyline as monotherapy for prophylaxis of migraine.

Background: Approximately 15% of migraine sufferers need preventative medicine because they have more than two episodes each month. Migraine is a regular, persistent condition that frequently makes victims helpless. Numerous drugs from various classes have so far been used in migraine prophylaxis.

Role and application of CRISPR-Cas9 in the management of Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a serious health issue that has a significant social and economic impact worldwide. One of the key aetiological signs of the disease is a gradual reduction in cognitive function and irreversible neuronal death. According to a 2019 global report, more than 5.

Adrenaline, Takotsubo, Anaphylaxis, and Kounis Syndrome (ATAK) Complex Unveiled: Integrating Takotsubo and Kounis Syndromes in the Context of Chemotherapy-Related Anaphylaxis.

The convergence of takotsubo and Kounis syndromes, collectively referred to as the "ATAK complex" (short for adrenaline, takotsubo, anaphylaxis, and Kounis syndrome), poses a unique and challenging clinical scenario, especially in the context of chemotherapy-related anaphylaxis. We present a case report involving a 63-year-old woman undergoing chemotherapy for endometrial adenocarcinoma who experienced anaphylactic symptoms during treatment. Immediate administration of epinephrine was followed by the emergence of ST elevation, a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, and wall motion abnormalities indicative of stress-induced cardiomyopathy.

Neurosarcoidosis and Transverse Myelitis: Life-Threatening Manifestations of Sarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis, a systemic granulomatous disorder, typically involves the lungs, skin, and lymph nodes. Neurological manifestations are diverse and may include longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM), an uncommon inflammatory disorder of the spinal cord. We present a case of a 62-year-old female with LETM as the initial manifestation of sarcoidosis.

A rare case of tumefactive demyelination of brain: A case report and literature review.

This case report highlights the diagnostic challenges encountered in a 30-year-old female presenting with fever followed by Wernicke's aphasia without right-sided weakness, ultimately diagnosed as tumefactive demyelination (TD). TD is a rare neurological condition often misidentified as brain tumors or inflammatory disorders. The case emphasizes the importance of precise differentiation through advanced magnetic resonance imaging, showing restricted diffusion at lesion edges and the absence of gadolinium enhancement.

Role of Yoga as Adjunctive Therapy for Migraines: A Narrative Review of the Literature.

Migraines are chronic, painful, and one of the most prevalent disabling primary headache disorders, mainly treated with pharmacological methods. Patients suffering from migraine suffer from a significantly reduced quality of life. The use of non-pharmacological methods to reduce the stress and anxiety associated with long-term chronic conditions can help improve quality of life, reduce disease burden, and subsequently alleviate the economic burden on the patient.

Charting the Progress of Epilepsy Classification: Navigating a Shifting Landscape.

Epilepsy, a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, has witnessed a remarkable transformation in its classification paradigm, driven by advances in clinical understanding, neuroimaging, and molecular genetics. This narrative review navigates the dynamic landscape of epilepsy classification, offering insights into recent developments, challenges, and the promising horizon. Historically, epilepsy classification relied heavily on clinical observations, categorizing seizures based on their phenomenology and presumed etiology.

Seizing the Connection: Exploring the Interplay Between Epilepsy and Glycemic Control in Diabetes Management.

Epilepsy, a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, and diabetes, a metabolic disorder characterized by impaired regulation of glucose levels, are two distinct conditions that may appear unrelated at first glance. Nevertheless, recent scholarly investigations have revealed these entities' intricate and ever-evolving interplay. This review initially delves into the intricate interplay between epilepsy and its potential ramifications on glycemic control.

Exploring Advancements in the Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Comprehensive Review of Current Modalities and Future Prospects.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal and incurable disease requiring a multidisciplinary treatment approach and a collaborative therapeutic effort. A combination of both upper and lower motor neuron degeneration ultimately leads to respiratory failure, similar to other dementia-type neurodegenerative diseases. The aim of this paper is to pioneer current ALS research by carrying out a narrative literature review of the current treatment modalities of the disease.

Choices and Challenges With Treatment of Myasthenia Gravis in Pregnancy: A Systematic Review.

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease affecting young women in their second and third decades, coinciding with their reproductive years. We aim to explore the choices and challenges in the treatment of MG in pregnancy. Cochrane, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Embase were the four databases systematically searched for studies with patients reporting pregnancy outcomes for women with MG during pregnancy using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) technique.

Innovative Approaches and Therapies to Enhance Neuroplasticity and Promote Recovery in Patients With Neurological Disorders: A Narrative Review.

Brain rehabilitation and recovery for people with neurological disorders, such as stroke, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and neurodegenerative diseases, depend mainly on neuroplasticity, the brain's capacity to restructure and adapt. This literature review aims to look into cutting-edge methods and treatments that support neuroplasticity and recovery in these groups. A thorough search of electronic databases revealed a wide range of research and papers investigating several neuroplasticity-targeting methods, such as cognitive training, physical activity, non-invasive brain stimulation, and pharmaceutical interventions.

Investigating the Impact of Epilepsy on Cognitive Function: A Narrative Review.

It has been noted that people who have epilepsy have an increased propensity for cognitive dysfunction. We explored 25 relevant articles on PubMed and Cochrane Library after implementing inclusion criteria. Different factors have been postulated and studied that may cause cognitive dysfunction in these patients; structural brain abnormalities, polypharmacy of antiepileptic medication, and neuropsychiatric disorders are the most common causes.
