In neurology, the most dangerous findings are not always the loudest ones

Sometimes the most important clue is the one that refuses to fit

How do signals generated in the cortex appear on the scalp #EEG, and what can they tell us about where activity originates in the brain? This review paper explains the biophysical principles.

What constitutes the loss of motivation and interest in daily activities (apathy) in PD?

Can we distinguish it from overlapping non-motor symptoms?

Does dopamine replacement (ON or OFF) make a difference?

Our effort now in @MDCP

NMOSD can present with narcolepsy as its 1st manifestation. MRI typically shows hypothalamic involvement. Kallolimath et al present one such case emphasising serum aquaporin 4 testing in all such cases. @neuro_ian #NMOSD #Narcolepsy

Case Record of the Massachusetts General Hospital (@MassGeneralNews): A 64-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital because of fatigue, memory changes, and falls.

The patient had been in her usual state of health until 3 weeks before the current presentation, when fatigue developed during a summer vacation in Maine. She had spent time outdoors near a lake but had had no known tick bites.

One week before the current presentation, the patient had increasing fatigue while driving. She parked the car and called her husband, who took her to the emergency department of another hospital for evaluation.

Read the full case details in “A 64-Year-Old Woman with Fatigue, Memory Changes, and Falls,” a Case Record of the Massachusetts General Hospital, by S. Bhattacharyya et al., from @BrighamWomens, @harvardmed, and Massachusetts General Hospital (@MassGeneralNews): https://t.co/G4XHecv0nM

Accurate brain death/death by neurologic criteria (BD/DNC) evaluation is critically important. Cormier et al. created a graphic detailing the evaluation process, including definitions, prerequisites, clinical examination, apnea testing & ancillary testing: https://t.co/Z0IaSh3IQ1

I used to always wonder why Temporal arteritis or Giant cell arteritis (GCA) only occurs above the age of 50.
It turns out that a variant of temporal arteritis in younger patients below 50 yrs does exist.
🌟Juvenile temporal arteritis [JTA] is a benign and local disease affecting patients younger than 50 years of age.
🌟Pts present with temporal pain and a lump in the temporal region.
🌟JTA can be unilateral or bilateral.
🌟However, systemic clinical symptoms such as asthenia, visual blurring are mild or absent unlike GCA.
🌟Upto a third of patients [34%] have peripheral blood eosinophilia >500/mm]
🌟ESR and CRP may or may not be elevated
🌟Great article in ➡️Autoimmunity Reviews, 2019-05-01, Volume 18, Issue 5, Pages 476-483
