High prevalence of neuroimaging abnormalities in eclampsia: Justifying the routine use of non-contrast CT in resource-limited settings.
Pregnancy Hypertens
January 2025
Universidad de Antioquia Faculty of Medicine ,Medellín Antioquia Colombia.
Objectives: Eclampsia remains a principal cause of maternal mortality, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The frequent association with Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) underscores the critical role of neuroimaging in clinical assessment. We aimed to evaluate tomographic findings in women with eclampsia and analyze clinical factors associated with these abnormalities.

Unlabelled: Haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets (HELLP) syndrome is a poorly understood, life-threatening multisystemic condition related to pregnancy with a rapid onset, typically observed in patients with severe pre-eclampsia. Various mechanisms may lead to diffuse endothelial damage associated with HELLP and possible brain involvement. A comprehensive review of PubMed, Embase and Cochrane databases was conducted to examine the clinical, laboratory and radiological features associated with postpartum HELLP syndrome, particularly its potential association with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES).

Acta Otolaryngol
January 2025
Department of Neurology, the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang, Hebei, China.
Background: Currently, there is a paucity of research comparing the clinical characteristics and repositioning efficacy between posterior canal-benign paroxysmal positional vertigo-canalolithiasis (PC-BPPV-ca) and posterior canal-benign paroxysmal positional vertigo-cupulolithiasis (PC-BPPV-cu).
Aims/objectives: To observe the clinical characteristics and compare the efficacy of repositioning maneuvers between PC-BPPV-ca and PC-BPPV-cu patients.
Material And Methods: Clinical information of patients was collected.
Topographic Anatomy and Step-Wised Harvest of Intermuscular Occipital Artery in Far Lateral Approach.

January 2025
Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China; Samii Clinial Neuroanatomy Research and Education Center of Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing, China. Electronic address:
Background: The occipital artery (OA) is an important donor artery for intracranial and extracranial bypass surgery, but its path is tortuous, making it difficult to harvest. Part of the traditional intermuscular OA is not covered by muscle and is easily damaged during surgery. Currently, there are few reports on how to protect this segment of the OA.

Diagnostics (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Neurosciences, Institute of Human Anatomy, University of Padova, 35121 Padova, Italy.
Background: Lymphedema represents a frequent cause of disability for patients undergoing oncological treatments and, being a chronic, non-reversible pathology, requires targeted and continuous rehabilitation treatments. To date, the studies available on the use of ultrasound in patients with lymphedema mainly report descriptive data; therefore, with this study, we wanted to describe in a more objective way the typical ultrasound alterations found in these patients, measuring the thickness of the different superficial structures, and defining subcutis echogenicity.
Methods: 14 patients affected by secondary lymphedema of the upper limbs were enrolled in this cross-sectional observational study (12 had breast cancer and 2 with melanoma as their primary diagnosis).
