BDNF levels in serum and CSF are associated with clinicoradiological characteristics of aggressive disease in MS patients.
J Neurol
January 2025
Department of Neurology, University Hospital Frankfurt, Frankfurt Am Main, Germany.
Background: BDNF has increasingly gained attention as a key molecule controlling remyelination with a prominent role in neuroplasticity and neuroprotection. Still, it remains unclear how BDNF relates to clinicoradiological characteristics particularly at the early stage of the disease where precise prognosis for the further MS course is crucial.
Methods: BDNF, NfL and GFAP concentrations in serum and CSF were assessed in 106 treatment naïve patients with MS (pwMS) as well as 73 patients with other inflammatory/non-inflammatory neurological or somatoform disorders using a single molecule array HD-1 analyser.
Brainstem infarct from cervical vertebral artery dissection presenting as a transient Parinaud syndrome.
Am J Ophthalmol Case Rep
March 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, 645 N Michigan Ave, Suite 440, Chicago, IL, 60611, USA.
Purpose: To report a case of transient diplopia and upgaze paresis in the setting of acute dorsal midbrain infarcts from a cervical vertebral artery dissection in an otherwise healthy man.
Observations: A 33-year old man presented to the ophthalmology urgent clinic with a 1 h history of blurred and double vision, asthenopia, and a mild focal left posterior headache. Ocular motility examination revealed a profound upgaze palsy and convergence-retraction horizontal jerk nystagmus in attempted upgaze that gradually improved over the course of 1 h.
Cortical laminar necrosis triggered by hepatic encephalopathy and post-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage: Case report.
Radiol Case Rep
March 2025
Department of Neurology, Delafontaine Hospital, Seine Saint-Denis, France.
Hepatic encephalopathy may trigger cortical laminar necrosis (CLN), which is characterized by diffuse symmetric cortical lesions. We report a 56-year-old woman with liver cirrhosis who presented with prolonged floor station, reduced alertness and left hemiplegia. Blood ammonia level was elevated.

Neurosciences (Riyadh)
January 2025
From the Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Aksaray University, Aksaray, Türkiye.
Objectives: To investigate the potential utility of the C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) and the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) as a biomarker in distinguishing between BPPV and acute cerebellar infarction (ACI) due to posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) involvement.
Methods: The data of 2545 patients registered in our hospital database between 2017 and 2024 with a diagnosis of vertigo were retrospectively analyzed and 102 patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and 100 patients with ACI were included in the study. Mann-Whitney U test, Chi-square test, or Fisher's exact test were used to compare variables between the two groups.
Reversible Perfusion Changes during Acute Attacks in Glucose Transporter Type 1 Deficiency Syndrome: A Pediatric Case Series.
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol
January 2025
Department of Pediatric Radiology and Neuroradiology (C.D., F.A., C.P., A.R.), Children's Hospital V. Buzzi, Milan, Italy.
Glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1-DS) is an uncommon condition represented by an infantile-onset disorder, frequently arising from heterozygous mutations in the gene. Individuals with GLUT1-DS may present with early-onset seizures (typically manifesting before 4 years of age), developmental delay, and complex movement disorders. In fewer cases, stroke-like events or hemiplegic migraine-like symptoms are also reported, defined by unilateral paresis affecting 1 side of the body and/or one-half of the face, occasionally accompanied by speech impairment.
