Background: Sleep and epilepsy are characterized by a bidirectional relationship. Indeed, epilepsy predisposes to the development of sleep disorders, while sleep deprivation may exacerbate epilepsy. In addition, antiseizure medication can disrupt normal sleep architecture.

Article Synopsis
- - The study evaluated visual fields and OCT measurements to identify unnoticed visual issues in MS patients, comparing groups with and without past optic neuritis and healthy controls.
- - Results showed that patients with previous optic neuritis had significantly worse visual field performance and thinner retinal nerve fiber layers compared to both MS patients without optic neuritis and healthy controls.
- - The findings suggest that relying on just one testing method is not enough to detect early visual impairment in MS, indicating that various techniques should be used together for a comprehensive assessment.
Intravenous immunoglobulin bridging to rituximab in NMDAR encephalitis patients non-responders to first-line treatments.

Background: The immunotherapy strategy for autoimmune encephalitis is based on several types and schedules of both first- and second-line drugs. Failing to respond to the latter prompts the use of non-conventional rescue therapies, with higher risks of severe adverse effects. We report on a protocol that entails the use of intravenous immunoglobulin cycles to bridge the 4-month period that the second-line drug rituximab needs to exert its full therapeutic effects.

Cardiological disorders contribute to a significant portion of the global burden of disease. Cardiology can benefit from Big Data, which are generated and released by different sources and channels, like epidemiological surveys, national registries, electronic clinical records, claims-based databases (epidemiological Big Data), wet-lab, and next-generation sequencing (molecular Big Data), smartphones, smartwatches, and other mobile devices, sensors and wearable technologies, imaging techniques (computational Big Data), non-conventional data streams such as social networks, and web queries (digital Big Data), among others. Big Data is increasingly having a more and more relevant role, being highly ubiquitous and pervasive in contemporary society and paving the way for new, unprecedented perspectives in biomedicine, including cardiology.
