Automated quantitative pupillometry as a predictor for transtentorial brain herniation in patients with malignant acute ischemic stroke.

Brain herniation can be a life-threatening condition, resulting in poor prognosis and higher fatality rates. We examined whether quantitative characteristics of sequential pupillary light reflex (PLR) could serve as biomarkers for identifying brain herniation in fatal acute stroke cases with anterior circulation involvement admitted to neurological intensive care unit (Neuro-ICU). Automatic pupillometer assessed PLR automatically every 4-6 hours, measuring eight specific features: NPi (Neurological pupil index) score, initial resting and constriction pupil size, constriction change, constriction velocity, constriction latency, and dilation velocity.

Background: Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by variants in the gene. It is associated with periodic paralysis, dysmorphic features and cardiac arrhythmias. The syndrome exhibits incomplete penetrance, leading to a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations, making diagnosis challenging.

Department of Neuroscience, Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, Florida, USA.
Background: Perry syndrome (PS) is a rare and fatal hereditary autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in dynactin (DCTN1). PS brains accumulate inclusions positive for ubiquitin, transactive-response DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43), and to a lesser extent dynactin.
Objectives: Little is known regarding the contributions of TDP-43, an RNA binding protein that represses cryptic exon inclusion, in PS.
Disparities in traumatic brain injury-related deaths-the United States, 2021.
Brain Inj
January 2025
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Division of Injury Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Objectives: This manuscript describes traumatic brain injury (TBI)-related mortality in the United States during 2021, by geography, sociodemographic characteristics, mechanism of injury, and injury intent.
Method: Multivariable modeling of TBI mortality was performed to assess the simultaneous effect of multiple factors (geographic region, sex, race and ethnicity, and age) included in the model. Authors analyzed multiple-cause-of-death data from the National Vital Statistics System and included records when an International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) underlying cause of death injury code, and a TBI-related ICD-10 diagnosis code were both listed.
Combination Antithrombotic Therapy for Reduction of Recurrent Ischemic Stroke in Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease.
Stroke

Population Health Research Institute, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. (M.A.S., J.W.E., A.H.K., A. Shoamanesh, A.T., R.G.H., A.C., R.Z.).
Background: Stroke secondary to intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is associated with high recurrence risk despite currently available secondary prevention strategies. In patients with systemic atherosclerosis, a significant reduction of stroke risk with no increase in intracranial or fatal hemorrhage was seen when rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily was added to aspirin.
