AI Article Synopsis
- Diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN) is caused by a live, mobile nematode located under the retina.
- In the acute phase, symptoms include severe eye pain, vision loss, and visible grayish-white lesions along with the nematode itself.
- During the late phase, the condition leads to arterial narrowing, optic nerve damage, and significant disruption of the retinal pigment epithelium, resulting in major visual impairment.
Article Abstract
Diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN) is caused by a subretinal live and mobile nematode. Acute phase: Patients usually present with severe pain, decreased vision, vitritis/papillitis, and tracks of grayish-white lesions-and a live nematode. Late phase: Arterial narrowing, optic atrophy, diffuse disruption of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), with severe visual loss.

The only way to mitigate the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was vaccines. While effective in decreasing the rate and severity of the disease, there also have been considerable adverse events. Since the birth of vaccines, adverse reactions accompanied the immunity, and COVID-19 vaccines are no exceptions.

Objectives: To improve preoperative diagnostic accuracy of struma ovarii by retrospectively reviewing magnetic resonance (MR) findings. It is beneficial to choose the most appropriate surgical modality for the patient.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical course and MR characteristics of 52 patients who were diagnosed postoperatively with struma ovarii, pathologically, from two institutions.

Background: Unilateral hemispheric stroke can impair the ipsilesional motor performance, which is crucial for attaining optimal functional outcomes poststroke. However, the specific brain structures contributing to ipsilesional motor performance impairment remain unclear.
Objective: To explore the link between ipsilesional motor performance and the microstructural integrity of relevant neural pathways.
Post mortem cadaveric and imaging mapping analysis of the influence of cochlear implants on cMRI assessment regarding implant positioning and artifact formation.

Department of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Medical Center, Faculty of Medicine, University of Freiburg, Killianstrasse 5, 79106, Freiburg, Germany.
Objectives: In times of an aging society and considering the escalating health economic costs, the indications for imaging, particularly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), must be carefully considered and strictly adhered to. This cadaver study aims to examine the influence of cochlear implant (CI) on the assessment of intracranial structures, artifact formation, and size in cranial MRI (cMRI). Furthermore, it seeks to evaluate the potential limitations in the interpretability and diagnostic value of cMRI in CI patients.
