Rehabilitation of gait function in post-stroke hemiplegic patients is critical for improving mobility and quality of life, requiring a comprehensive understanding of individual gait patterns. Previous studies on gait analysis using unsupervised clustering often involve manual feature extraction, which introduces limitations such as low accuracy, low consistency, and potential bias due to human intervention. This cross-sectional study aimed to identify and cluster gait patterns using an end-to-end deep learning approach that autonomously extracts features from joint angle trajectories for a gait cycle, minimizing human intervention.

Hepatic encephalopathy may trigger cortical laminar necrosis (CLN), which is characterized by diffuse symmetric cortical lesions. We report a 56-year-old woman with liver cirrhosis who presented with prolonged floor station, reduced alertness and left hemiplegia. Blood ammonia level was elevated.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) presents complex clinical challenges, particularly in patients receiving anticoagulation therapy. This case report discusses the management of acute ICH in a 60-year-old male patient on long-term apixaban therapy, who arrived at the emergency department with altered consciousness, right-sided hemiplegia, and mixed aphasia. Computed tomography (CT) imaging revealed a 70 ml left lenticular-capsular hematoma with significant mass effect, necessitating rapid intervention.

Background: Concurrent ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are extremely rare, and their management remains perplexing due to the absence of high-quality evidence and limited resources. For the first time, we report a rare, preventable, and suboptimally managed case of concurrent AIS and STEMI in a patient with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) who received cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (CHOP) chemotherapy.
Case Presentation: A 59-year-old postmenopausal woman of African origin with a background history of type 2 diabetes mellitus presented to the Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute with sudden onset of left-sided weakness and typical ischemic chest pain for 3 days.

Background: Postoperative subdural hematoma (SDH) typically presents with headache, impaired consciousness, hemiplegia, gait disturbance, and aphasia but can also present with visual impairment.
Observations: A 52-year-old woman diagnosed with Chiari malformation type I and syringomyelia underwent foramen magnum decompression. Cerebrospinal fluid was lost due to arachnoid injury during the procedure.
