Beware! We are Skating on a Thin Ice: Air Pollution is a Killer
J Assoc Physicians India. 2023 Jul;71(7):11-12.ABSTRACTAir pollution has rapidly emerged as a major environmental hazard in recent times, with potentially catastrophic ramifications for human health.1,2 It has the ability to severely and adversely impact multiple body systems, including the central nervous system (CNS), cardiovascular, dermatological, respiratory, ophthalmologic, and gastrointestinal health. It is a global public health hazard, being responsible for an estimated 6.7 million deaths worldwide in 2016. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that between 3.2 to 4.8 million persons succumb yearly because...

Transcranial Doppler Screening for Patent Foramen Ovale Closure in Cryptogenic Strokes in Young: A Single Center Experience from South India
CONCLUSIONS: R-L shunt is common in cryptogenic ischemic strokes in young. TCD with bubble contrast study is a noninvasive and feasible bedside tool to detect them. Applying the ESUS criteria in these cryptogenic strokes with a positive TCD bubble contrast study can be then used for selecting patients for more invasive tests like TEE. High-risk PFOs picked up with TEE can be then considered for PFO closure for secondary stroke prevention. The history of Valsalva maneuver-like activity (such as lifting heavy weights or straining) at the time of stroke onset can be a clinical predictor for the presence of an R-L shunt. In ad...

A Retrospective Observational Study of Neurological Manifestations in COVID-19 (SON-CoV)
Conclusion: CNS symptoms of COVID-19 are more common than PNS symptoms. Stroke is the most frequent (46%) COVID-CNS symptom, which occurs in people of age above 35 years and is associated with high mortality.PMID:37355862 | DOI:10.5005/japi-11001-0107

Stroke Characteristics as Predictors of New-onset Seizure in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSION: There was no recurrence of seizures in those who defaulted for AED and one patient had a seizure even on AED. Prophylactic AEDs in stroke patients based on stroke characteristics could not be ascertained, but the sample size was small. Knowing the fact that antiepileptics cause sedation and increase the chance of aspiration, continuing AEDs in patients who develop acute symptomatic seizures should be judged judiciously.PMID:37355969 | DOI:10.5005/japi-11001-0160

COVID-19-associated Neurological Manifestations and Complications: An Observational Study
CONCLUSION: Neurological issues in COVID-19 patients are relatively common and have the propensity to manifest later as post-acute COVID-19 syndrome.PMID:37355967 | DOI:10.5005/japi-11001-0158
