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.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how the severity and presentation of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) vary among different SARS-CoV-2 variants using a group of 59 patients aged 0-18 years diagnosed with COVID-19 and MIS-C over a year.
  • Results showed that most patients were diagnosed during the Alpha (41%) and Delta (32%) periods, and respiratory symptoms were notably common in the Delta variant group.
  • However, the study found no significant differences in overall symptoms, lab results, treatment, or long-term outcomes across the different variant groups.

Background: The aim of this study was to understand how neurological development of preterm infants can be predicted at earlier stages and explore the possibility of applying personalized approaches.

Methods: Our study included a cohort of 64 preterm infants, between 24 and 34 weeks of gestation. Linear and nonlinear models were used to evaluate feature predictability to Bayley outcomes at the corrected age of 2 years.

The binary boron-rich compounds α-IrB and β-IrB, formerly denoted as α- and β-IrB, were synthesized both arc melting followed by annealing at 800 °C (900 °C) and high-temperature thermal treatment of mixtures of the elements. X-ray structure analysis of α-IrB was performed on a single crystal (space group 2/, = 10.5515(11) Å, = 2.

Dissecting biological pathways highlighted by Mendelian gene discovery has provided critical insights into the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and neurodegeneration. This approach ultimately catalyzes the identification of potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Here, we identify as a new gene implicated in PD and childhood neurodegeneration.
