CROI 2022: neurologic complications of HIV-1, SARS-CoV-2, and other pathogens
Top Antivir Med. 2022 Oct-Nov;30(3):475-489.ABSTRACTThe 2022 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections featured new and important findings about the neurologic complications of HIV-1, COVID-19, and other infections. Long-term analyses identified that cognitive decline over time, phenotypic aging, and stroke are associated with various comorbidities in people with HIV. Neuroimaging studies showed greater neuroinflammation, white matter damage, demyelination, and overall brain aging in people with chronic HIV infection. Childhood trauma and exposure to environmental pollutants contribute to these neuroimaging f...

COVID-19 Continuous-EEG Case Series: A Descriptive Study
Conclusions: In this observational case series of 16 patients with COVID-19 who were monitored with continuous video-EEG, most patients experienced a nonspecific encephalopathy. Clinical seizures and electrographic status epilepticus were the second most commonly observed neurological problem.

Neurological consequences of COVID-19
Pharmacol Rep. 2022 Sep 30. doi: 10.1007/s43440-022-00424-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn December 2019, cases of pneumonia caused by infection with the previously unknown severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), leading to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), were identified. Typical manifestations of COVID-19 are fever, cough, fatigue and dyspnoea. Initially, it was thought that the mechanism of action of SARS-CoV-2 was only associated with respiratory tract invasion, but it was later revealed that the infection might involve many other organs and systems, including the central and peripheral ner...

Aseptic meningitis in Fabry disease due to a novel GLA variant: an expanded phenotype?
ConclusionWe described aseptic meningitis in a family with a novelGLA variant. Meningitis might be a common phenomenon in FD and not a particularity of this variant. Understanding the mechanisms underlying meningitis and its association with cerebrovascular events may lead to a new paradigm of treatment for stroke in these patients. Further prospective studies with CSF collection in patients with FD and recurrent headache could help to elucidate this question.

Burden of neurological diseases in Asia from 1990 to 2019: a systematic analysis using the Global Burden of Disease Study data
Conclusions This study demonstrated the burden of neurological diseases in Asia. To reduce the burden of neurological diseases, strategies suitable for each country’s real healthcare needs and challenges are needed; this study can serve as the cornerstone of these strategies.

Prevention of neurological complications during COVID-19: a retrospective analysis of the ISARIC4C national cohort
This study is the first to focus on the prevention of neurological complications and strongly supports the continued use of both dexamethasone and remdesivir in severe COVID-19. Our results suggest that the established benefit of dexamethasone on mortality in COVID-19 is not associated with an increased burden of long-term neurological disability.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow Analysis in Tuberculous Meningitis Using Phase Contrast Technique on 3 Tesla MRI: A New Paradigm and Our Initial Experience
Conclusion: PC-MRI is a sensitive technique to analyze altered CSF flow dynamics in tuberculous meningitis patients. This is a useful adjunct in imaging these patients to extract both the qualitative and quantitative information about CSF flow for comprehensive evaluation.

Amantadine treatment is associated with improved consciousness in patients with non-traumatic brain injury
Conclusions Amantadine treatment is associated with improved consciousness among patients with different types of non-traumatic brain injury in this observational cohort analysis. Epileptic seizures should be considered as potential side effects and randomised controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.

POSA199 Risk of Cardiovascular Events after Streptococcus Pneumoniae Infections: Life Study
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a common cause of diseases such as community-acquired pneumonia, meningitis, and sepsis across all age groups. In Japan, routine pneumococcal vaccinations are carried out for children aged ≤5 years and older persons aged ≥65 years due to their higher risk of infection. Acute S. pneumoniae infections are reported to elevate the risk of subsequent cardiovascular events such as coronary heart disease, heart failure, arrhythmia, and stroke. In order to generate evidence for the develo pment of optimal vaccination strategies, this study analyzed the effects of S.
