Background: The BeCare MS Link mobile app collects data as users complete different in-app assessments. It was specifically developed to evaluate the symptomatology and neurologic function of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and to become a digital equivalent of the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and other standard clinical metrics of MS progression.
Methods: Our research compared EDSS scores derived from the BeCare MS link app to EDSS scores derived from neurologist assessment for the same cohort of 35 patients diagnosed with MS.
Background: Bilateral hemispheric strokes in a young adult are very rare. We describe a case of neurocysticercosis in a young male with bilateral middle cerebral artery occlusions.
Case Description: Axial tomographic imaging revealed lesions compatible with cysticerci adjacent to each middle cerebral artery initial segment, and occlusion of both arteries at that level was demonstrated by angiography.
