Postseizure brain changes on imaging are well-known facts. Many times, oedematous brain changes can mimic ischaemic stroke. Crossed cerebellar diaschisis refers to a depression in metabolism, affecting the cerebellar hemisphere due to contralateral supratentorial abnormalities.

We investigated in women of Asian Indian descent in Mauritius, a population inherently prone to abdominal obesity, whether those with PCOS will show a more adverse cardiometabolic risk profile that could be explained by abnormalities in fat distribution. Methods Young women newly diagnosed with PCOS (n=25) were compared with a reference control cohort (n =139) for the following measurements made after an overnight fast: body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), body composition by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, blood pressure and blood assays for glycemic (glucose, HbA1c, insulin) and lipid (triglycerides, cholesterols) profiles.

Background: Metagenomic high-throughput sequencing (mNGS) represents a powerful tool for detecting nucleic acids from various pathogens, such as bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites, in clinical samples. Despite its extensively employed in the pathogen diagnosis for various infectious diseases, its application in diagnosing stroke-related infection, and its potential impact on clinical decision-making, anti-infection treatment, clinical intervention, and patient prognosis remain insufficiently explored. Additionally, while mNGS offers promising potential, it facts limitations related to sensitivity, specificity, cost, and standardization, which could influence its integration into routine clinical practice.

Background: Primary healthcare (PHC) plays a key role in hyperlipidemia (HL) management yet lacks adequate monitoring and feedback. This study aims at identifying pragmatic measures out from routinely collected electronic records to enable automatic monitoring and inform continuous optimization of HL-management at PHC settings.
Methods: The study used randomly selected electronic records of PHC (from the province-wide data center of Anhui-province, China) as the main data source and generated both procedure-based and encounter-based measures for assessing HL-management.
