Clinical Reasoning: An unusual case of subacute encephalopathy
A 52-year-old previously healthy man presented with 8 months of progressive cognitive decline. He complained of months of confusion, fatigue, depression, hypersomnolence, headaches, and, subsequently, urinary incontinence and unsteady gait. His family reported that he spoke of his deceased mother as if she were alive. His executive deficits progressed, leading to termination of his employment and a motor vehicle accident. He was evaluated and treated in Morocco before presenting to our institution for further care.

Mp12-09 a novel intracerebral hemorrhage-induced rat model of neurogenic voiding dysfunction: analysis of lower urinary tract function
Clinically, stroke is known to be associated with voiding dysfunction. However, lower urinary tract function evaluation in an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) model has not been reported. Therefore, we investigated lower urinary tract function in ICH-induced rats and compared the results to those obtained in normal rats.

Bilateral Frontal Cerebral Infarctions Presenting as Ascending Weakness: Case Report (P1.023)
CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge there are only a few case reports describing bilateral frontal cerebral infarctions due to a single A2 segment of the anterior cerebral artery. Bilateral cerebral infarctions should be considered in patients with symmetric weakness, especially in those with vascular risk factors who do not have features consistent with an alternative etiology. Reflexes are an important feature in distinguishing between central and peripheral lesions and should be closely monitored in these patients. Timely diagnosis will enable early delivery of thrombolytic therapy to these patients improving outcomes.Disclos...

Demographic, health conditions, and lifestyle factors associated with urinary incontinence in elderly from Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of urinary incontinence was high among the investigated elderly. Sociodemographic variables and those related to lifestyle and health conditions were associated with higher prevalence of urinary incontinence. Knowledge of the factors associated with urinary incontinence in aged individuals can guide actions to reduce and prevent this important issue, which affects the elderly. OBJETIVO: Determinar a prevalência e os fatores associados à incontinência urinária na população idosa de Florianópolis, no Estado de Santa Catarina. MÉTODOS: Foram utilizados dados do inquérito EpiFloripa Idoso 20...

An unusual case of acute wandering paralysis
Publication date: Available online 9 October 2015 Source:Journal of Acute Disease Author(s): Federico Bianchi, Quintino Giorgio D'Alessandris, Roberto Pallini, Eduardo Fernandez, Liverana Lauretti The authors reported on a 63-year-old diabetic male who developed a strange wandering hemiparesis affecting first left side and then right side, not consistent with a right parasagittal meningioma nor with ischemic stroke. The subsequent rapid worsening of clinical picture, with occurrence of paraparesis, urinary incontinence and midthoracic sensory level, together with the evidence of leucocytosis, led to the diagnosis of...

The Man Who Grew Eyes
The train line from mainland Kobe is a marvel of urban transportation. Opened in 1981, Japan’s first driverless, fully automated train pulls out of Sannomiya station, guided smoothly along elevated tracks that stand precariously over the bustling city streets below, across the bay to the Port Island. The island, and much of the city, was razed to the ground in the Great Hanshin Earthquake of 1995 – which killed more than 5,000 people and destroyed more than 100,000 of Kobe’s buildings – and built anew in subsequent years. As the train proceeds, the landscape fills with skyscrapers. The Rokkō mounta...

Self-Advocacy
On August 18, 2008 I went up to the office to do a load of xeroxing, throwing my bag in the back seat of the car. When I got to school, however, something was wrong. Though early in the am, it was like I was drunk, with walking wobbly and difficult. Being a compulsive, I idiotically worked for half an hour, holding on to the copying machine to steady myself. Then I drove home (second stupid act), called the health help line, where they told me to get to the ER. And don't drive! Once there, they figured I had had a stroke and put me on coumadin, a powerful blood thinner. Three days later, in the evening, a nurse wrote on my...

Ischaemic stroke after ST-elevation myocardial infarction
Clinical introduction A 67-year-old Hispanic man presented with 5-h history of typical chest pain and an ECG consistent with inferior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Coronary angiography revealed an occluded proximal right coronary artery, and a percutaneous intervention with drug eluting stent was performed. He was started on aspirin and clopidogrel. Two weeks later, he was admitted with loss of consciousness, tonic-clonic seizure and urinary incontinence. On physical examination, he was unresponsive to tactile stimuli. Cardiac examination revealed a prominent left ventricular heave. Neurological examination s...

MRI of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
Publication date: Available online 20 January 2016 Source:Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI Author(s): William G. Bradley Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) is a syndrome found in the elderly which is characterized by ventriculomegaly and deep white matter ischemia (DWMI) on MRI and the clinical triad of gait disturbance, dementia and urinary incontinence. NPH has been estimated to account for up to 10% of cases of dementia and is significant because it is treatable by ventriculoperitoneal shunting (VPS). Patients with a known cause of chronic communicating hydrocephalus, ie, meningitis or hemorrhage, tend to respond ...
