Triglyceride-glucose index as a biomarker to differentiate stroke etiologic subtypes: a hospital-based cross-sectional study.

Background: Accurate distinction between stroke etiologic subtypes is critical for physicians to provide tailored treatment. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a marker of insulin resistance, has been associated with stroke risk but its role in distinguishing stroke etiologic subtypes remains unclear. We aimed to assess the TyG index's ability to differentiate cardioembolic (CE) from non-cardioembolic (NCE) strokes.

Primary and metastatic cerebral Ewing's sarcoma: A case report about a rare entity and literature review.

Background: Ewing's sarcoma (ES) is a rare malignant tumor primarily affecting young individuals, with cranial localization being particularly uncommon. While intracranial metastatic ES is infrequent, only four cases of intracranial metastatic ES are reported in the literature; it presents unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

Case Description: We present a distinctive case of ES to delineate its clinical, radiological, and histopathological characteristics.

Hepatic myelopathy neurological complication of chronic liver disease: two case reports.

Background: Hepatic myelopathy is a very rare neurological complication of chronic liver disease. Patients habitually present with progressive pure motor spastic paraparesis. This neurological dysfunction is almost always due to cirrhosis and portocaval shunt, either surgical or spontaneous.

Pseudotumoral neuro-behcet's disease: case series and review of literature.

Background: Behcet's disease (BD) is a multisystem autoimmune relapsing vasculitis with an almost unknown etiology involving both large and small vessels. The neurological involvement called neuro-Behcet's disease (NBD) is rare. NBD can be responsible for tumor-like masses mimicking low-grade gliomas in only a few cases.

Extensive longitudinal myelitis due to cytomegalovirus infection.

Neurological cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections especially extensive longitudinal myelitis are extremely rare in immunocompetent adults. However, we hereby report a case of cervical, thoracic, and lumbosacral myelitis caused by CMV infection in a healthy adult patient. The patient was treated properly and had a good outcome.
