We present a case report of a patient, affected by post-polio syndrome and cuff tear arthropathy of his right shoulder, who underwent reverse shoulder arthroplasty. A previous radial deficiency was unmasked in the post-operative follow-up, with passive elbow bending when the forearm was put in an antigravitational position. A precise preoperative neurological evaluation is mandatory in shoulder replacement in order to estimate the functional outcome after surgery.

Effect of induced astigmatism on vestibulo-ocular reflex.

Clin Exp Optom

January 2025

Department of Optometry, School of Paramedical and Rehabilitation Sciences, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran.

Clinical Relevance: The vestibular-ocular reflex stabilises the retinal image and maintains balance during head movement. Astigmatism is one of the common refractive errors that can reduce the quality of visual inputs.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of induced astigmatism on the function of the vestibular-ocular reflex.

Copper (Cu) dysregulation, often stemming from ATP7B gene mutations, exacerbates neurological disorders like Huntington's, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's diseases. Monoisoamyl 2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (MiADMSA) shows promise in mitigating Cu induced neurotoxicity by chelating intracellular Cu ions, reducing oxidative stress, and restoring antioxidant enzyme function. However, challenges such as poor bioavailability hinder its therapeutic efficacy.

The differentiation between benign and malignant brain lesions remains a fundamental challenge in modern neuroimaging. This case highlights a rare presentation of ectatic Virchow-Robin spaces (VRS), which mimicked tumefactive brain lesions and required a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation to exclude neoplastic, infectious, and inflammatory processes. A 37-year-old female presented with progressive headache, cognitive impairment, and facial pain.

We present a case of a young woman who presented with blurring of vision in her right eye, worsening on near work. Detailed ophthalmic and neurological evaluation was done, which revealed light near dissociation, vermiform iris movements, constriction to diluted pilocarpine with absent deep tendon reflexes. Laboratory investigation indicated mild iron deficiency anemia and reduced vitamin D3 level.
