Enteroviruses (EVs) are a highly diverse group of viruses multiplying primarily in the gastrointestinal tract and/or the upper respiratory tract, initially distributed in two separate genera: Enterovirus and Rhinovirus, respectively. According to the similarities in genome organization and particle structure, rhinovirus species were later reclassified as also belonging to genus Enterovirus. Human EV infections are usually asymptomatic or causing mild clinical manifestations.

Article Synopsis
- Methylmalonic Aciduria (MA) is a rare disorder that leads to toxic methylmalonic acid buildup, causing serious health issues like metabolic crises and kidney damage.
- A case study of a 39-year-old male with MA and stage IV chronic kidney disease illustrates how a single hemodialysis session effectively treated his acute metabolic crisis after a gastrointestinal infection.
- Long-term management of MA often requires continuous kidney and/or liver transplantation, with combined liver-kidney transplants offering better outcomes due to reduced acid production and improved kidney function.

Unlabelled: Background: Anti-LGI1 encephalitis is characterized by a pattern of inflammation that predominantly affects the limbic system It is part of the autoimmune encephalitis that attack neuronal surface antigens. It is characterized by the triad of subacute dementia, faciobrachial dystonic crises, and hyponatremia, presenting an excellent response to immunotherapy. The aim of this article is to describe the clinical evolution and functional outcome at 6 months of two patients with anti-LGI1 encephalitis using clinical cases.

Inherited disorders of biogenic amine metabolism are genetically determined conditions resulting in dysfunctions or lack of enzymes involved in the synthesis, degradation, or transport of dopamine, serotonin, adrenaline/noradrenaline, and their metabolites or defects of their cofactor or chaperone biosynthesis. They represent a group of treatable diseases presenting with complex patterns of movement disorders (dystonia, oculogyric crises, severe/hypokinetic syndrome, myoclonic jerks, and tremors) associated with a delay in the emergence of postural reactions, global development delay, and autonomic dysregulation. The earlier the disease manifests, the more severe and widespread the impaired motor functions.
