[A case report of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder with lesions of the medulla oblongata].

The article presents modern diagnostic criteria for neuromyelitis optic spectrum disorders (NMOSD) in AQP4-IgG-seropositive patients with limited or atypical forms, brain, diencephalon and brainstem leasions, who have a high risk of future relapses. On the example of a clinical case, it has been shown that area postrema syndrome can occur as the only single manifestation in the onset of NMOSD, which complicates the diagnosis of NMOSD and delays timely treatment. In turn, the delayed pathogenetic therapy during the first attack of NMOSD may cause exacerbations and patients disability.

[Clinical and laboratory predictors of outcome in acute period of atherothrombotic ischemic stroke].

Aim: To clarify clinical and pathogenetic predictors of outcome in acute period of atherothrombotic stroke (ATS).

Material And Methods: One hundred and nineteen patients with ATS were examined. Characteristics of the clinical picture, a number of white blood cells in peripheral blood in the stage of apoptosis, necrosis as well as the state of intracellular antioxidant protective system were studied.

[CLINICAL-HEMODYNAMIC PECULIARITIES OF THE COURSE OF HEMODYNAMIC ISCHEMIC STROKE IN ACUTE PERIOD].

Unlabelled: The aim of the research is to study the peculiarities of cardiac morphometric parameters, the parameters of central hemodynamics and their impact on the course of hemodynamic ischemic stroke in acute period. 116 patients were performed Echo-Doppler-cardiography in acute period of hemodynamic ischemic stroke in order to evaluate cardiac morphometric parameters. These patients were also performed transcranial duplex scanning.
