Isoprostanes as potential cerebral vasospasm biomarkers
Publication date: Available online 4 October 2018Source: Neurologia i Neurochirurgia PolskaAuthor(s): Karol Wiśniewski, Jagoda Jóźwik-Pruska, Michał Bieńkowski, Ernest J. Bobeff, Maciej Bryl, Joanna Kałużna-Czaplińska, Dariusz J. JaskólskiAbstractDespite enormous progress in medicine, symptomatic cerebral vasospasm (CVS), remains an unexplained clinical problem, which leaves both physicians and patients helpless and relying on chance, due to the lack of specific marker indicative of imminent danger as well as the lack of specific treatment. In our opinion CVS occurrence depends on dynamic disbalance between free r...

Psychiatric comorbidity in multiple sclerosis
ConclusionPsychiatric illness is highly prevalent in patients of multiple sclerosis leading to poor quality of life and significant distress. Psychiatric disability was higher in patients who had greater deterioration in neurological function. All cases of MS should be assessed for psychiatric morbidities as can be alleviated by appropriate intervention. (Source: Polish Journal of Neurology and Neurosurgery)

TRIO gene segregation in a family with cerebellar ataxia
Conclusions and clinical implicationsThe TRIO p.A1214V variant is associated with cerebellar ataxia in the studied family; it was present in all affected and unaffected family members. Phenotype is severe and broad. Anticipation seems to be present (based on 2 affected generations). It is warranted to screen additional familial early-onset and rapidly progressive ataxia cases for this genotype. TRIO gene mutations may well represent a novel spinocerebellar ataxia subtype.

Age as a prognostic factor in relation to surgical evacuation of spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral haemorrhage
Conclusions and clinical implicationsNeurosurgical treatment of the sICH patients is indicated only if age and potentially improved morbidity is carefully evaluated considering the STICH and this study; otherwise, we will just increase the health care burden with a number of extremely care-dependent patients.

Characteristics and clinical correlates of white matter changes in brain magnetic resonance of migraine females
ConclusionWMHs are present in more than one third of migraine females, regardless of aura. WHMs are located supratentorially, subcortically and in the frontal lobes. Older age, longer disease's duration, obesity and positive history of pregnancy are main risk factors for WMHs. Symptomatology and migraine severity, hyperhomocysteinemia, OCP and anti-migraine medications do not increase WMHs. (Source: Polish Journal of Neurology and Neurosurgery)

Electroencephalogram findings in patients with posterior cortical atrophy
ConclusionsThis study of limited sample size suggests that there may be an increased predilection to find IEDs within PCA when compared to typical AD. Larger cohorts are required to determine frequency of abnormal EEGs in PCA, roles of AEDs in therapy, and in the selection of preferred AED.Clinical implicationsPatients with PCA would potentially benefit from an EEG for assessment of IEDs which may provide the clinician with a therapeutic opportunity.

Central nervous system microbleeds in the acute phase are associated with structural integrity by DTI one year after mild traumatic brain injury: A longitudinal study
ConclusionsPresence of Mb detected by SWI was associated with worse cognitive outcome and persistent PCS in mTBI patients, while DTI did not prove to predict neuropsychological outcome in the acute phase. (Source: Polish Journal of Neurology and Neurosurgery)
