CACNA1A-associated epilepsy: Electroclinical findings and treatment response on seizures in 18 patients
Eur J Paediatr Neurol. 2021 May 26;33:75-85. doi: 10.1016/j.ejpn.2021.05.010. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCACNA1A pathogenic mutations are involved in various neurological phenotypes including episodic ataxia (EA2), spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA6), and familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM1). Epilepsy is poorly documented. We studied 18 patients (10 males) carrying de novo or inherited CACNA1A mutations, with median age of 2,5 years at epilepsy onset. Eight mutations were novel. Two variants known leading to gain of function (GOF) were found in 5 patients. Five other patients had non-sense variants leading to loss of function ...

Aphasia Induced by Infratentorial Ischemic Stroke: Two Case Reports
Aphasia induced by an infratentorial stroke has rarely been reported, and its mechanism has not been fully identified. We evaluated two individuals who had been admitted to Saiseikai Kumamoto Hospital in Kumamoto, Japan, due to acute ischemic stroke in order to determine whether their aphasia was induced by an infratentorial stroke. The first patient, a 59-year-old man with a history of left parietal embolic stroke with very mild sequelae of anomia, developed Wernicke’s aphasia, nonfluent speech, and right limb ataxia as a result of the stroke. The second patient, a 76-year-old woman with a history of chronic renal failu...

Progressive Ataxia and Downbeat Nystagmus in the Adult
A 63-year-old man presented with a history of vomiting, hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, dilated ischemic cardiomyopathy, alcohol use, and stroke; physical examination found appendicular dysmetria with truncal ataxia and downbeat nystagmus. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed a hyperintensity on T2-weighted and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequences without reduced diffusion in the cerebellar nodule. What is your diagnosis?

Integrating visual search, eye movement training and reversing prism exposure in the treatment of Balint-Holmes syndrome: a single case report
Conclusions: We thus provided a proof of principle supporting the use of reversing prism exposure in optic ataxia within an integrated and personalized rehabilitative approach for BHS.PMID:33960916 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.1923319
