Purpose: To assess adverse neurological risks following influenza vaccination in older adults.
Methods: Using a linked database of healthcare administrative claims data and vaccination records from an urban city in Japan (April 1, 2014, to March 31, 2020), we conducted an observational study utilizing a self-controlled case series design. We identified individuals aged ≥ 65 years who experienced adverse neurological outcomes, defined as hospitalizations related to epilepsy, paralysis, facial paralysis, neuralgia, neuritis, optic neuritis, migraine, extrapyramidal disorders, Guillain-Barre syndrome, or narcolepsy.

Introduction: Very rarely, adult NMDAR antibody-associated encephalitis (NMDAR-E) leads to persistent cerebellar atrophy and ataxia. Transient cerebellar ataxia is common in pediatric NMDAR-E. Immune-mediated cerebellar ataxia may be associated with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), aquaporin-4 (AQP-4), kelch-like family member 11 (KLHL11), and glutamate kainate receptor subunit 2 (GluK2) antibodies, all of which may co-occur in NMDAR-E.

Cerebellar abscess is a reported complication of chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) and is life threatening at times. It usually develops by direct spread of CSOM through the bony erosion in the petrous bone or by thrombophlebitis of the sigmoid sinus. However, an alternative pathway of infection transmission from the petrous bone to the cerebellum through the anatomical bridge of the cranial nerves has possibly not been described before.
