Article Synopsis
  • Painful legs and moving toes (PLMT) syndrome is a rare movement disorder involving severe leg pain and involuntary toe movements caused by nerve issues in the lower limbs.
  • This case study presents a 59-year-old man with PLMT due to multiple disc problems in his spine, highlighting how pregabalin, a medication, significantly improved his symptoms during a 90-day follow-up.
  • The conclusion emphasizes that while PLMT is often overlooked by healthcare providers, early treatment with medications like pregabalin is crucial, with additional options available if conservative treatments fail.

Aims: Pathogenic variants in the gene are related to the classic and non-classic forms of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). However, the role of CAH carrier status in the clinical presentation of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is still unclear. Moreover, the possible associations of different gene polymorphisms with metabolic and reproductive abnormalities in PCOS have not been investigated.

Prosopagnosia, also referred to as "face blindness," is a type of visual agnosia characterized by a decreased capacity to recognize familiar faces with a preserved ability to identify individuals based on non-facial visual traits or voice. Prosopagnosia can be categorized as developmental (DP) or acquired (AP) owing to a variety of underlying conditions, including trauma, neurodegenerative diseases, stroke, neuroinfections, and, less frequently, malignancies. Facial recognition is a complex process in which different neuronal networks are involved.

Background And Aims: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a leading cause of death and long-term disability worldwide. Thromboinflammation plays an important role in the pathophysiology of stroke. The peripheral blood cell count ratios (PBCCR): neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), are global inflammatory indicators with prognostic value for the clinical outcome after stroke.

Background: The development of assisted reproductive techniques has significantly improved fertility chances in many women, but recurrent implantation failure (RIF) and miscarriages (RM) might preclude successful pregnancy. Alterations in the intrinsic secretory patterns of melatonin and cortisol influence reproduction in humans, and imperfection of receptor - dependent signaling may additionally compromise the hormonal effects. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the influence of certain melatonin and cortisol receptor polymorphisms in infertile women.
