Todd's paralysis due to hyperperfusion syndrome after carotid endarterectomy mimicking postoperative stroke
J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2023 Jun 19. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12720-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTodd's paralysis is a neurological deficit that is observed in <10% of patients following epileptic seizures. Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is a rare complication following carotid endarterectomy (CEA), seen in 0-3% of the patients, characterized by focal neurological deficit, headache, disorientation, and sometimes seizures. In this case report, we present a case of CHS after CEA followed by seizures and Todd's paralysis that mimicked postoperative stroke. A 75-year-old female patient was admitted for CE...

Associations of small vessel disease and acute symptomatic seizures in ischemic stroke patients
CONCLUSION: In this cohort of hospitalized patients with anterior circulation ischemic stroke, CMBs were more likely to be found in patients with ASS than those without ASS, an association that was attenuated when accounting for stroke severity, cortical infarct location, and hemorrhagic transformation. Evaluation of the long-term risk of seizures associated with CMBs and other markers of small vessel disease is warranted.PMID:37329856 | DOI:10.1016/j.yebeh.2023.109233

Analysis of Risk Factors for Epilepsy after Combined Re-Vascularization in Adult Patients with Moyamoya Disease
Conclusions: Pre-operative epilepsy, the location of the bypass recipient artery, new cerebral infarction, hyper-perfusion syndrome, and intra-cranial hemorrhage may have a causal relationship with epilepsy in adult MMD patients. It is suggested that some risk factors could be intervened to reduce the incidence of post-operative epilepsy in MMD patients.

Identification of m.3243A & gt;G mitochondrial DNA mutation in patients with cerebellar ataxia
CONCLUSION: Mitochondrial m.3243A>G mutation accounted for 0.9% (2/232) of genetically-undetermined cerebellar ataxia in the Han Chinese cohort in Taiwan. These findings highlight the importance of investigating m.3243A>G in patients with genetically-undetermined cerebellar ataxia.PMID:37311680 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfma.2023.05.031

Epilepsy-Heart Syndrome: Incidence and Clinical Outcomes of Cardiac Complications in patients with Epilepsy
CONCLUSIONS: The large proportions of PWE with active disease that experience CVEs and the poor long-term outcome associated suggest the existence of an 'epilepsy-heart syndrome'.PMID:37295636 | DOI:10.1016/j.cpcardiol.2023.101868

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and MSC ‐derived exosomes in animal models of central nervous system diseases: Targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome
AbstractThe NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR-, and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) inflammasome is a multimeric protein complex that is engaged in the innate immune system and plays a vital role in inflammatory reactions. Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and subsequent release of proinflammatory cytokines can be triggered by microbial infection or cellular injury. The NLRP3 inflammasome has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many disorders affecting the central nervous system (CNS), ranging from stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury to Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and ...
