Objectives: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a clinic radiological disorder characterized by headache, epileptic seizure, encephalopathy, visual impairment, and focal neurological deficits. Gestational hypertension, which is a significant risk factor for PRES, may cause significant morbidity and mortality among pregnant women.
Design: Twenty-four patients with PRES caused by eclampsia who were admitted to our hospital in the last 5 years were included in this study.
Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected the practice of neurology and other medical fields. The neurological complications associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection are remarkable. In this study, we investigated the clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) caused by COVID-19 diagnosed between 1 September 2020 and 30 November 2020.

The structures of these newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), C NMR, high-resolution mass spectrometric and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic methods. All these compounds were evaluated for their enzyme inhibitory activities against two cholinesterase enzymes, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE).
