Stroke and syphilis: A retrospective study of 53 patients.
CONCLUSION: A diagnosis of syphilitic stroke should be suspected in young patients as a manifestation of syphilis, and tests for neurosyphilis should be routine in neurology departments to make a prompt diagnosis, thereby preventing psychological sequelae.

A Comparative Study of Conventional Physiotherapy versus Robot-Assisted Gait Training Associated to Physiotherapy in Individuals with Ataxia after Stroke.
Conclusions: Chronic stroke patients with ataxia had significant improvements in balance and independence in activities of daily living after RAGT along with conventional therapy and home exercises. This trial was registered with trial registration number 39862414.6.0000.5505. PMID: 29675114 [PubMed - in process]

Mitochondrial metabolic stroke: Phenotype and genetics of stroke-like episodes
Stroke-like episodes (SLEs) are the hallmark of mitochondrial encephalopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episode (MELAS) syndrome but rarely occur also in other specific or nonspecific mitochondrial disorders. Pathophysiologically, SLLs are most likely due to a regional disruption of the blood-brain barrier triggered by the underlying metabolic defect, epileptic activity, drugs, or other factors. SLEs manifest clinically with a plethora of cerebral manifestations, which not only include features typically seen in ischemic stroke, but also headache, epilepsy, ataxia, visual impairment, vomiting, and psychiatric abnormalities.

Atypical clinical presentations are common in TIA and minor stroke patients with DWI-MRI confirmed ischaemia
Conclusions Over one-third with DWI-confirmed TIA/minor stroke present atypically. The value of atypical symptoms in excluding ischaemia, particularly in patients with vascular risk factors, appears limited.

A neglected symptom? Parietal gait lateropulsion as primary manifestation of acute is-chemic stroke
CONCLUSION: We report gait lateropulsion as a novel primary manifestation of acute stroke of the parietal lobe (parietal gait lateropulsion). Given its role as the destination of proprioceptive pathways, parietal strokes can result in gait lateropulsion, with bilateral lesions even mimicking sensory ataxia with bilateral lateropulsion and unsteadiness upon eye closure.PMID:36631966 | DOI:10.33588/rn.7602.2021349

Functional recovery and rehabilitation of postural impairment and gait ataxia in patients with acute cerebellar stroke
Highlights: Abstract: Studies about recovery from cerebellar stroke are rare. The present study assessed motor deficits in the acute phase after isolated cerebellar stroke focusing on postural impairment and gait ataxia and outlines the role of lesion site on motor outcome, the course of recovery and the effect of treadmill training. 23 patients with acute and isolated cerebellar infarction participated. Deficits were quantified by ataxia scores and dynamic posturography in the acute phase and in a follow up after 2 weeks and 3 months. MRI data were obtained to correlate lesion site with motor performance. Half of the pati...

Interrater Reliability of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale: Rating by Emergency Room Physicians and Neurologists in a Population-Based Study (P5.140)
CONCLUSIONS:Overall, there was excellent agreement in total NIHSS between ED physicians and neurologist. The NIHSS components gaze, visual fields, ataxia, sensory, and extinction are areas improvement of assessment and documentation in the ED, and should be specifically evaluated in AIS patients whose scores are considered too mild for rt-PA eligibility.
