Introduction: Identifying early risks of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major challenge as the number of patients with AD steadily increases and requires innovative solutions. Current molecular diagnostic modalities, such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) testing and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, exhibit limitations in their applicability for large-scale screening. In recent years, there has been a marked shift toward the development of blood plasma-based diagnostic tests, which offer a more accessible and clinically viable alternative for widespread use.

Traumatic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage from skull base fractures increases the risk of bacterial meningitis, which is associated with a high mortality rate in adults, and commonly results in severe neurological outcomes. While most cases of CSF leakage occur within three months post-injury and generally resolve spontaneously, delayed-onset meningitis remains a challenging complication. Herein, we report a rare case of severe bacterial meningitis with an intraventricular abscess one year following a frontal skull base fracture, despite no CSF leak.

Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a rare Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) variant. The global incidence of GBS is approximately one to two in 100,000 children (aged 0 to 15 years) per year. Miller Fisher syndrome represents a further small subset, with the incidence being one to two in 1,000,000 children.

It is crucial for early detection and treatment of Alzheimer's disease before clinical manifestation. The stage between cognitively healthy older persons and AD is known as mild cognitive impairment (MCI).

Data were obtained through routine health care at the UMC Ljubljana, Slovenia from 2005-2022, using clinical pathways. The patients were classified into three groups: i) radicular pain of new onset (N = 332); or ii) involvement of cranial nerve(s) but without radicular pain (N = 997); or iii) erythema migrans (EM) skin lesion(s) in conjunction with symptoms suggestive of nervous system involvement but without either cranial nerve palsy or radicular pain (N = 240).
