Background: Dissemination of medical practice and scientific information through social media (SoMe) by clinicians and researchers is increasing. Broad exposure of information can promote connectivity within the scientific community, overcome barriers to access to sources, increase debate, and reveal layperson perspectives and preferences. On the other hand, practices lacking scientific evidence may also be promoted, laypeople may misunderstand the professional message, and clinician may suffer erosion of professional status.

Article Synopsis
- The Italian Association of Preeclampsia (AIPE) and the Italian Society of Perinatal Medicine (SIMP) collaborated to explore maternal hemodynamics and its implications for pregnancy outcomes.
- Experts reviewed existing literature and proposed recommendations on managing maternal cardiovascular profiles, leading to a classification system for pregnancy-related hypertension and complications based on hemodynamic states.
- The findings suggest that understanding these hemodynamic profiles can enhance clinical decision-making, despite the need for more extensive studies to solidify the evidence.
Background: Neurosarcoidosis occurs symptomatically in 5-10% of patients with sarcoidosis, and hydrocephalus is a rare complication of neurosarcoidosis, with either acute or subacute onset and presenting symptoms related to increased intracranial pressure. It represents a potentially fatal manifestation with a mortality rate of 22% (increased to 75% in case of coexistence of seizures) that requires a prompt initiation of treatment. High-dose intravenous corticosteroid treatment and neurosurgical treatment must be considered in all cases of neurosarcoidosis hydrocephalus.

- Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is a complex brain condition that needs special tests to be correctly diagnosed.
- Researchers reviewed studies to see if testing fluids from the brain and blood could help diagnose CBS better.
- The findings suggest using certain markers could improve how doctors diagnose CBS and choose treatments in the future.
