[Pharmacological treatment in early rehabilitation after ischemic stroke].

There is a wealth of information on early pharmacological supportive treatment for early rehabilitation following acute ischemic stroke. This review aims to provide healthcare professionals involved in rehabilitating patients with a summary of the available evidence to assist with decision-making in their daily clinical practice. A search for randomized clinical trials and observational studies published between 1/1/2000 and 28/8/2022 was performed using PubMed, Cochrane and Epistemonikos as search engines with language restriction to english and spanish.

[Recommendations For The Management Of Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage During Hospitalization].

Stroke is the leading cause of neurological disability in people over 40 years of age and the fourth leading cause of death in Argentina.

Rebound activity after fingolimod cessation: A case - control study.

Background: There has been an increase in the number of reports of multiple sclerosis (MS) rebound activity (RA), which is usually defined as a severe disease reactivation after natalizumab or fingolimod withdrawal that exceeds pre-treatment baseline inflammatory activity. The frequency and risk factors that could predict RA remain unknown. Fingolimod is currently the most frequently prescribed disease modifying therapy for MS in Argentina, so that there is a need to determine possible predictors of RA.

Clinical Presentation and Risk Factors for Poor Outcomes Among Adult Patients With Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is an acute neurological condition with unknown global incidence, variable clinical presentation, and prognosis.

Objectives: To describe a cohort of patients with PRES with a focus on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) patterns and their relationship with short-term clinical outcomes.

Methods: Retrospective cohort study.
