Background: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) are degenerative diseases frequently associated with severe recurrences and high risk of progressive disability. In this report, we describe an unusual case of a patient with the coexistence between NMOSD and mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD).
Case Description: A 58-year-old Caucasian man was admitted to the Emergency Department (ED) with low back pain and walking inability.

Introduction: Recent studies by us and others have unveiled a frequent coexistence of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) with neurodegenerative movement disorders, including progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). This study aims to explore the clinical and radiological characteristics of patients with iNPH who also had comorbid with PSP, referred to as iNPHc + PSP.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with iNPH admitted to our department between 2009 and 2024.

In the dyotropic rearrangement of molecules with semiflexible structures, characterized by a freely rotating static C-C bond, the formation of a mixture of products is common due to the coexistence of several energetically comparable conformers. Herein, we report that it is possible to modulate the shifting groups by adjusting the metal's coordination sphere in Pd-based dyotropic rearrangement. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(II) salt, the reaction of γ-hydroxyalkenes or γ,δ-dihydroxyalkenes with Selectfluor affords fluorinated tetrahydropyranols or 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.
