Respirology
November 2016
Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China.
While identifying the underlying aetiology is a key part of bronchiectasis management, the prevalence and impact of identifying the aetiologies on clinical management remain unclear. We aimed to determine the etiological spectrum of bronchiectasis, and how often etiological assessment could lead to the changes in patients' management. A comprehensive search was conducted using MEDLINE (via PubMed) and EMBASE for observational studies published before October 2015 reporting aetiologies in adults with bronchiectasis.

Papilloedema and cranial nerve palsies complicating apparent benign aseptic meningitis.

Department of Medicine, University of Wales College of Medicine, Heath Park, Cardiff.
Three patients who presented with apparently uncomplicated aseptic meningitis subsequently developed papilloedema and sixth cranial nerve palsies between 11 and 16 days after the onset of the illness.
