We report a rare case of bilateral central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) after COVID-19 management with steroids. The patient was a 49-year-old female who presented with bilateral blurred vision three months after the COVID-19 infection. She had been treated with intravenous Remdesivir and Dexamethasone. After her recovery from the disease, she developed gradual visual impairment in both her eyes. Upon examinations and optical coherence tomography, bilateral CSCR was revealed. She was treated with eplerenone (25 mg/day) and propranolol (20 mg/day), and the symptoms were improved after two months. Post-COVID-19 associated CSCR can occur due to steroids administration. Therefore, patients and physicians should be aware of these possible complications and seek an ophthalmology consultation as early as possible.

Disentangling the neural underpinnings of response inhibition in disruptive behavior and co-occurring ADHD.
Eur Child Adolesc Psychiatry
January 2025
Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands.
While impaired response inhibition has been reported in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), findings in disruptive behavior disorders (DBDs) have been inconsistent, probably due to unaccounted effects of co-occurring ADHD in DBD. This study investigated the associations of behavioral and neural correlates of response inhibition with DBD and ADHD symptom severity, covarying for each other in a dimensional approach. Functional magnetic resonance imaging data were available for 35 children and adolescents with DBDs (8-18 years old, 19 males), and 31 age-matched unaffected controls (18 males) while performing a performance-adjusted stop-signal task.

Department of Thyroid and Neck Oncology, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital, National Clinical Research Center for Cancer, Tianjin's Clinical Research Center for Cancer, Key Laboratory of Cancer Prevention and Therapy, Tianjin, China.
Background: Multifocality is a distinctive feature of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC); however, the biological behavior of PTC and its optimal management strategy remain unclear. The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical features and prognostic differences of multifocal papillary carcinoma and to guide the precise treatment of multifocal papillary carcinoma.
Methods: The medical records of 1,139 patients with PTC who had undergone total or hemi-thyroidectomy between April and October 2013 at the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital were reviewed.

Sleep Unit, Neurology Service, Hospital Clínic Barcelona, IDIBAPS, CIBERNED, Universitat de Barcelona, Villarroel 170, 08036, Barcelona, Spain.
Background: The diagnosis of isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (IRBD) requires video polysomnography (V-PSG) showing increased muscle activity and abnormal behaviors in REM sleep.
Objective: To describe in IRBD the behavioral manifestations occurring during REM sleep in the diagnostic V-PSG.
Methods: This is a systematic audiovisual V-PSG analysis of consecutive IRBD patients.
Intrathecal Baclofen Pump Wean and Risk of Exposure in a Large TBSA Burn Wound Patient: A Case Report.
J Burn Care Res

Indiana University, Division of Plastic Surgery, Indianapolis, IN, USA.
Burn injuries in patients with significant pre-existing medical conditions provide unique challenges in both medical management and surgical planning. Spasticity, if left untreated, can be one of the most disabling consequences of a neurologic injury. Treatment is largely dependent on pharmacologic management with anti-spasmodic agents such as baclofen.
