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.

Es una auténtica genialidad de Ricardo Anaya. Es la primera ocasión en que veo un grito inteligente de protesta de parte de la oposición. Bravo, Ricardo Bravo
Congrats on this prospective study in @GreenJournal!
Beyond the striking finding that nearly half of rapidly progressive dementia etiologies were immune-mediated, it is a great example of how neurologists can generate meaningful data while doing clinical work👏🏽
Example to follow!
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
🧠 Esclerosis Múltiple (EM) en 2026: el paradigma cambió drásticamente. El objetivo terapéutico ya no es solo evitar recaídas clínicas.

Inflammatory myopathies are typically associated with a myositis-specific autoantibody that determines the diagnosis and prognosis. Myositis subgroups have distinct pathomechanisms that now allow for targeted therapies.

Approach to Retinal Migraine 🧠
Retinal migraine has unique characteristics and diagnostic challenges. Importantly, you must meet the diagnostic criteria for migraine.

An easy way to differentiate these midbrain syndromes is to remember that, moving from anterior to posterior, all three involve oculomotor nerve damage, with additional distinct features:
Weber’s syndrome – affects the anterior midbrain, involving the corticospinal tracts, leading to contralateral weakness.
Benedikt’s syndrome – involves the mid-midbrain, including the red nucleus, causing abnormal involuntary movements such as tremor and chorea.
Claude’s syndrome – localized to the posterior midbrain, where superior cerebellar peduncle fibers (after decussation) are affected, resulting in cerebellar signs (think Claude = Cerebellar).
