Epidemiology, investigation, management, and outcome of headache in emergency departments (HEAD study)-A multinational observational study
CONCLUSION: Diagnosis and management of headache in the ED is challenging. A small group of patients have a serious secondary cause for their symptoms. There is wide variation in the use of neuroimaging and treatments. Further work is needed to understand the variation in practice and to better inform international guidelines regarding emergent neuroimaging and treatment.PMID:34726783 | DOI:10.1111/head.14230

Modulating Neurological Complications of Emerging Infectious Diseases: Mechanistic Approaches to Candidate Phytochemicals
Growing studies are revealing the critical manifestations of influenza, dengue virus (DENV) infection, Zika virus (ZIKV) disease, and Ebola virus disease (EVD) as emerging infectious diseases. However, their corresponding mechanisms of major complications headed for neuronal dysfunction are not entirely understood. From the mechanistic point of view, inflammatory/oxidative mediators are activated during emerging infectious diseases towards less cell migration, neurogenesis impairment, and neuronal death. Accordingly, the virus life cycle and associated enzymes, as well as host receptors, cytokine storm, and multiple signal...

The trend analysis of neurological disorders as major causes of death and disability according to human development, 1990-2019
This study aims to assess the trends in the incidence rate of neurological disorders in developed and developing countries worldwide during 1990-2019. The age-standardized incidence rate (per 100000 persons) of neurological disorders was the primary outcome, extracted from the Global Burden of Disease database for 189 countries and territories from 1990 to 2019. Using the Human Development Index (HDI), countries were classified into developed (HDI ≥ 0.7) and developing (HDI < 0.7) groups. Longitudinal analysis was performed using the Latent Growth Model (LGM) to assess the change in the incidence rate of neurological ...

Clinical presentation and assessment of older patients presenting with headache to emergency departments: A multicentre observational study
CONCLUSION: Older patients with headache had different clinical features to the younger cohort and were more likely to have a serious secondary cause of headache than younger adults. There should be a low threshold for investigation in older patients attending ED with non-traumatic headache.PMID:34570422 | DOI:10.1111/ajag.12999

Incidence, prevalence and disability associated with neurological disorders in Italy between 1990 and 2019: an analysis based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019
ConclusionsThe increase in YLDs associated with neurological conditions is mostly due to population ageing and growth: nevertheless, lived disability and, as a consequence, impact on health systems has increased. Actions are needed to improve outcome and mitigate disability associated with neurological conditions, spanning among diagnosis, treatment, care pathways and workplace interventions.

Percheron Artery-Plus Syndrome: A Syndrome Beyond Stroke Chameleon
J Nippon Med Sch. 2021;88(4):375-379. doi: 10.1272/jnms.JNMS.2021_88-414.ABSTRACTThe artery of Percheron (AOP) is an anatomical variant of the thalamoperforating arteries. AOP occlusion can cause bilateral paramedian thalamic infarctions and is referred to as a "stroke chameleon" because it lacks the classic signs of stroke. Coexistence of AOP occlusion and other neurologic disease is rare and can cause disturbance of consciousness. A 78-year-old woman had acute onset of left limb weakness and drowsy consciousness. Brain magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) revealed acute bilateral paramedian thalamic infarctions. However,...
