We report the cases of 2 patients hospitalized in our intensive care unit with confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 infection in whom brain MR imaging showed an unusual DWI pattern with nodular and ring-shaped lesions involving the periventricular and deep white matter. We discuss the possible reasons for these findings and their relationship to the infection.

Department of Psychiatry, University of Campania "L. Vanvitelli", Naples, Italy.
This is the first bottom-up review of the lived experience of postpartum depression and psychosis in women. The study has been co-designed, co-conducted and co-written by experts by experience and academics, drawing on first-person accounts within and outside the medical field. The material initially identified was shared with all participants in a cloud-based system, discussed across the research team, and enriched by phenomenological insights.

Limb disorders and slurred speech are common clinical symptoms associated with acute ischemic stroke. Although urinary incontinence is a known symptom in many cases of acute ischemic stroke, the simultaneous impairment of both bowel and bladder function is relatively rare. The occurrence of fecal and urinary incontinence as the primary clinical manifestation in minor acute ischemic stroke is especially uncommon.

Bank voles are susceptible to prion strains from many different species, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying the ability of bank vole prion protein (BVPrP) to function as a universal prion acceptor remain unclear. Potential differences in molecular environments and protein interaction networks on the cell surface of brain cells may contribute to BVPrP's unusual behavior. To test this hypothesis, we generated knock-in mice that express physiological levels of BVPrP (M109 isoform) and employed mass spectrometry to compare the interactomes of mouse (Mo) PrP and BVPrP following mild in vivo crosslinking of brain tissue.

Wilson's disease is a metabolic disorder affecting the liver, brain, skin and osteo-muscular organs. Refractory rickets is an unusual phenomenon in Wilson's disease. This 27-year-old man was primarily treated for rickets for 20 years without success and later developed features of tremulousness of limbs and dysphonia when he was evaluated for Wilson's disease.
