A male in his 20s presented with episodic headache and subsequently developed episodic unilateral weakness, dysphasia and encephalopathy. These paroxysmal episodes persisted over time with the development of background cognitive impairment and neuropsychiatric symptoms. MRI surveillance demonstrated progressive T2 hyperintensity with focal cortical oedema correlating to symptoms observed during clinical episodes.

Objectives: KLUC β-lactamase is a minor extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) derived from chromosome-encoded cefotaximase in Kluyvera cryocrescens. This study aimed to characterize the genetic context of KLUC-3-producing Escherichia coli and bla-harboring plasmids and assess nosocomial transmission.
Methods: In a national genomic surveillance conducted in 2019 and 2020, KLUC-3-producing E.

Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a rare progressive neurodegenerative disease with a characteristic pathological feature of eosinophilic hyaluronan inclusions in the nervous system and internal organs. The identification of GGC-repeat expansions in the Notch 2 N-terminal like C (NOTCH2NLC) gene facilitates the accurate diagnosis of NIID. Due to its rareness and high clinical heterogeneity, the diagnosis of NIID is often delayed or missed.

: Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the formation of intranuclear inclusions in cells. Adult-type NIID usually develops in elderly patients with various clinical manifestations and is sometimes accompanied by ocular symptoms. A case of adult-onset NIID with early and unique manifestations, including a progressive corneal defect and retinal changes, which are concerning at a young age, is reported.

Background: 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) induced toxic encephalopathy, a rare toxic disease of the central nervous system, is mainly reported in developing countries. Although clinicians have got some understanding about the clinical and neuroimaging features of 1,2-DCE-induced toxic encephalopathy, abnormality along the cortico-medullary junction on diffusion-weighted image (DWI) mimicking neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) has not yet been described in this entity.
Case Presentation: We reported a patient with 1,2-DCE-induced toxic encephalopathy who was admitted to our department due to a 7-day history of nausea, vomiting, and cognitive decline.
