An analysis of the results of the treatment of 132 patients with isolated traumatic parenchymatous injury of the frontal lobes of the brain was made. The treatment strategy was determined in consideration of the traumatic substratum volume and a combination of neurologic status and instrumental data. There were unfavorable risk factors to the course of traumatic parenchymatous injury of the frontal lobes of the brain such as low initial GCS score, the progression of neurologic deficiency in the presence of contusion hemorrhagic foci in the frontal lobe with the volume more than 25 cm3, shifting of midline structures on 5 mm and more or signs of deformation of basilar region cisterns and the presence of mass-effect according to the tomographic data. The developed algorithm allowed improving the results of treatment and the quality of life for patients with traumatic parenchymatous injury of the frontal lobes of the brain.

Silent Sinus Syndrome of the Frontal Sinus: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Otolaryngology, Fairfield General Hospital, Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust, Manchester, GBR.
Silent sinus syndrome is a rare condition that typically affects the maxillary sinus, with only a few reported cases of frontal sinus involvement. Blockage of the sinus ostium leads to persistent hypoventilation, creating negative pressure and eventual sinus collapse. This report describes a previously undocumented case of facial asymmetry due to frontal silent sinus syndrome, following multiple childhood nasal injuries.

The long-term health of former athletes with a history of multiple concussions and/or repetitive head impact (RHI) exposure has been of growing interest among the public. The true proportion of dementia cases attributable to neurotrauma and the neurobehavioral profile/sequelae of multiple concussion and RHI exposure among athletes has been difficult to determine. Across three exposure paradigms (i.

Background: White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are prominent neuroimaging markers of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) linked to cognitive decline. Nevertheless, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying WMH remain unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the structural decoupling index (SDI) as a novel metric for quantifying the brain's hierarchical organization associated with WMH in cognitively normal older adults
Methods: We analyzed data from 112 cognitively normal individuals with varying WMH burdens (43 high WMH burden and 69 low WMH burden).
Robot-Assisted Gait Training for Achieving Gait Symmetry in a Subacute Stroke Patient: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Department of Rehabilitation, Musashigaoka Hospital, Kumamoto, JPN.
Gait asymmetry in post-stroke patients is an important gait characteristic that is associated with their balance control, inefficiency, and risks of musculoskeletal injury to the non-paretic lower limb and falling. Unfortunately, most stroke patients retain an asymmetrical gait pattern, even though their gait independence and gait speed improve. We describe the clinical course of a subacute stroke patient who achieved a symmetrical gait at discharge after undergoing both gait training with orthoses and robot-assisted gait training from the early intervention phase.

Research Department, Princess Máxima Center for Pediatric Oncology, Utrecht, The Netherlands.
Background: Postoperative pediatric cerebellar mutism syndrome (ppCMS) poses serious morbidity after posterior fossa tumor surgery. Neuroimaging studies aim to understand its pathophysiology, yet these vary in methodology and outcome measures. Therefore, we systematically reviewed the current literature to evaluate the evidence for differences in neuroimaging features between children with and without ppCMS.
