Post-thrombolysis hemorrhage in a patient with hypothyroidism and acute ischemic stroke: Case report.
Abstract Thrombolytic treatment with intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) is an effective treatment for acute ischemic stroke. However, its effectiveness and risks in patients with hypothyroidism have not been reported. Here, we report the case of hemorrhagic transformation after intravenous rtPA thrombolysis treatment in a patient with acute ischemic stroke and hypothyroidism. An apparent edema formed around the hematoma and progressively worsened. He also developed lung infection, electrolyte imbalance, and abnormal liver and kidney functions, and eventually died within 1 month of symptom ...

Thyroid function tests and early outcomes of acute ischemic stroke in older euthyroid patients.
Abstract Blood thyroid function tests (TFT) are routinely used to screen for thyroid disorders in several clinical settings. TFT on hospital admission may also be useful prognostic predictors of acute IS: according to recent evidence, poststroke outcome is better in patients with lower thyroid function and worse in those with higher thyroid function. However, previous reports are few and mostly compared patients with thyroid disorders to euthyroid patients. Thyroid disorders are known risk factors for cerebrovascular disease. However, hyperthyroidism is related to cardioembolic IS whereas hypothyroidism is related...

P-029 Impact of in-hospital delirium on outcomes of acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionsDelirium complicates ~3.5% of AIS admissions, and is associated with increased risk of in-hospital death, longer stay, higher charges and decrease in likelihood of home discharge.Disclosures D.

Large Middle Cerebral Artery Ischemic Stroke in a Therapeutically Anticoagulated Patient With Severe SARS-CoV-2 Infection
Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is associated with hypercoagulability which can predispose infected patients to both arterial and venous thromboembolic complications. Despite therapeutic anticoagulation, there remains a risk of ischemic strokes, which may lead to adverse patient outcomes. Only a few cases are described in the literature regarding SARS-CoV-2 positive patients developing thrombotic ischemic strokes despite therapeutic anticoagulation. Case Report: The following is a case discussion regarding a 71-year-old female with pas...

A Small-for-Gestational-Age Infant with MIRAGE Syndrome Who Developed Heat Stroke and Rhabdomyolysis due to Severe Temperature Instability
This report describes heat stroke and rhabdomyolysis caused by anhidrosis as a symptom of MIRAGE syndrome in a small-for-gestational-age (SGA) female neonate born at 32 weeks of gestation (birth weight, 911 g [ −3.8 SD]). She developed severe temperature instability with anhidrosis, growth failure, mild developmental delay, hypothyroidism, and intractable enteropathy. On day 156, her temperature reached 42.0°C; her fever persisted for 2 h with prolonged irritability. Her serum creatine kinase level incr eased to a peak value of 12,716 (normal range, 43–321) IU/L. The clinical feature was diagnosed as rhabdomyolysis ca...

Neonatal Forearm Compartment Syndrome: Look for Cerebral Stroke
A male term newborn presented with a neonatal forearm compartment syndrome together with an ipsilateral cerebral stroke. Pregnancy and delivery were uneventful, except for oligohydramnios. His mother had celiac disease and hypothyroidism. Since birth, he showed a 4-cm bullous-ulcerated lesion on the left volar forearm and elbow fold (, A), with normal pulses, and an ipsilateral upper limb paresis with reduced motility, dropped wrist, no fingers extension, and grasping. Tendon reflexes were normal with Babinski sign bilaterally evident. Radiography showed a mild carpus asymmetry (left left). He had a residual scar on the fo...

Association Between Systemic Inflammation, Carotid Arteriosclerosis, and Autonomic Dysfunction
In conclusion, systemic inflammation is associated with carotid rather than with generalized arteriosclerotic disease. The association between systemic inflammation and carotid arteriosclerosis is mediated by a reduction in vagal tone which indicates a major role of carotid arteriosclerosis-mediated autonomic dysfunction in the pathogenesis of systemic inflammation in arteriosclerotic disease.

Neurological Involvement in Primary Systemic Vasculitis
Conclusion Neurological involvement is a common complication of PSV (Table 1), and neurologists play an important role in the identification and diagnosis of PSV patients with otherwise unexplained neurological symptoms as their chief complaint. This article summarizes the neurological manifestations of PSV and hopes to improve neuroscientists' understanding of this broad range of diseases. TABLE 1 Table 1. Common CNS and PNS involvements of primary systemic vasculitis. Author Contributions SZ conceived the article and wrote the manuscript. DY and GT reviewed and edited the manuscript. All authors ...

Basilar artery occlusion presenting as refractory status epilepticus
We report in best of our knowledge the first case of refractory status epilepticus in the brainstem stroke and review the relevant literature. We present a case of 45-year-old hypothyroid female presented with loss of consciousness followed by generalized tonic-clonic seizures which turned out into refractory status epilepticus as benzodiazepines and antiepileptic drugs were ineffective. Magnetic resonance imaging and angiography of brain revealed basilar artery occlusion with infarcts of midbrain, bilateral thalami and cerebellum without cortical involvement. Emergency physician should be aware of this unusual presentatio...
