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

Deficiency of Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated Kinase Modulates Functional and Biochemical Parameters of the Heart in Response to Western-type Diet
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol. 2021 Apr 30. doi: 10.1152/ajpheart.00990.2020. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtaxia telangiectasia mutated kinase (ATM) deficiency exacerbates heart dysfunction late after myocardial infarction. Here, we hypothesized that ATM deficiency modulates Western-type diet (WD)-induced cardiac remodeling with an emphasis on functional and biochemical parameters of the heart. Weight gain was assessed in male wild-type (WT) and ATM heterozygous knockout (hKO) mice on weekly basis, while cardiac functional and biochemical parameters were measured 14 weeks post-WD. hKO-WD mice exhibited rapid body weigh...

Riboflavin in Neurological Diseases: A Narrative Review
AbstractRiboflavin is classified as one of the water-soluble B vitamins. It is part of the functional group of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) cofactors and is required for numerous flavoprotein-catalysed reactions. Riboflavin has important antioxidant properties, essential for correct cell functioning. It is required for the conversion of oxidised glutathione to the reduced form and for the mitochondrial respiratory chain as complexes I and II contain flavoprotein reductases and electron transferring flavoproteins. Riboflavin deficiency has been demonstrated to impair the oxidative state ...

Viruses, Vol. 13, Pages 700: Long-COVID and Post-COVID Health Complications: An Up-to-Date Review on Clinical Conditions and Their Possible Molecular Mechanisms
id J Alzahrani Aristóteles Góes-Neto Vasco Azevedo Preetam Ghosh Debmalya Barh The COVID-19 pandemic has infected millions worldwide, leaving a global burden for long-term care of COVID-19 survivors. It is thus imperative to study post-COVID (i.e., short-term) and long-COVID (i.e., long-term) effects, specifically as local and systemic pathophysiological outcomes of other coronavirus-related diseases (such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)) were well-cataloged. We conducted a comprehensive review of adverse post-COVID health outcomes and potential long-COV...

Millard-Gubler Syndrome Associated with Cerebellar Ataxia in a Patient with Isolated Paramedian Pontine Infarction – A Rarely Observed Combination with a Benign Prognosis: A Case Report
We report the case of a 55-year-old male patient having presented to the Yehuleshet Specialty Clinic 6 years back with sudden-onset dysarthria and appendicular ataxia of 10 days duration. He reported having right hemibody weakness and blurred vision, which have significantly improved since then. He had a history of smoking of 30 pack-years. However, he quit smoking 8 years ago. There was no history of prior stroke, transient ischemic attack, diabetes, hypertension, head trauma, or dyslipidemia. On examination, he had horizontal left gaze palsy with horizontal nystagmus suggesting left-sided 6th cranial nerve palsy. He had ...

PICA injury secondary to anterior odontoid screw fixation: Case report of an exceptional complication
CONCLUSION: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of iatrogenic PICA injury in anterior odontoid screw fixation. The patient was well managed in our institution within a multidisciplinary team. We recommend that surgical management of odontoid fractures should be performed in expert centers.PMID:33753130 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2021.02.015

The Clinical and Imaging Profile of Skew Deviation: A Study of 157 Cases
Conclusions: The amplitude of misalignment in skew deviation varies widely but is generally 5 PD or less. When misalignment is 3 PD or less, patients report blurred vision rather than diplopia. Skew deviation is usually accompanied by other neurologic signs reflecting brainstem dysfunction. Yet there is a small subgroup in which vertical misalignment is an isolated sign, and there are no supporting brain imaging abnormalities. The main cause of skew deviation is ischemic stroke, which affects not only the brainstem but also the thalamus. Diplopia from skew deviation frequently persists, in which case prism spectacles m...
