Background: Fulminant idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is characterized by headache, rapid decrease of vision and elevated CSF-opening pressure.
Objective: To delineate a subgroup of MOGAD mimicking fulminant IIH.
Methods: In this case series children with MOGAD with vision loss, optic disc swelling and elevated CSF opening pressure, initially diagnosed with fulminant IIH, were included.
Background: The presence and clinical significance of hepatic tissue alterations as assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), are unclear. This study aimed to investigate associations of hepatic T1 patterns with myocardial tissue damage and clinical outcomes in patients suffering from STEMI.
Methods: We analyzed 485 patients with STEMI treated with percutaneous coronary intervention who were enrolled in the prospective MARINA STEMI study (Magnetic Resonance Imaging In Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction).

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how lesions in children with transverse myelitis (TM) resolve over time, focusing on different related diseases: MOG-antibody associated disorders (MOGAD), multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), and double seronegative TM.
- A total of 78 children from various medical centers were assessed, and a grading system was used to measure the resolution of lesions over time.
- Results showed that MOGAD had the fastest and most complete resolution of lesions, followed by double seronegative TM, MS, and NMOSD, with none of the NMOSD patients achieving complete resolution during the observation period.
Background: Beyond therapeutic implications, PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9) has emerged as a promising cardiovascular biomarker. The exact role of PCSK9 in the setting of acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is incompletely understood. We aimed to investigate the association of PCSK9 with ischemia-reperfusion injury, visualized by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, in patients with STEMI revascularized by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
