4-Year Follow-up of Delayed-Release Dimethyl Fumarate Treatment in Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS): Integrated Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Outcomes From DEFINE, CONFIRM, and the ENDORSE Extension Study (P3.160)
CONCLUSIONS: Reduced frequency of new MRI lesions is maintained over 4 years among patients continuing therapy. Switching from placebo to delayed-release DMF, patients demonstrated MRI outcomes similar to those with delayed-release DMF in DEFINE/CONFIRM. Together with clinical efficacy and an acceptable safety profile, results support delayed-release DMF as a potential long-term treatment option for relapsing MS.Study Supported by: Biogen IdecDisclosure: Dr. Arnold has received personal compensation for activities with Acorda Therapeutics, Bayer Pharmaceuticals Corporation, Biogen Idec, Coronado Biosciences, EMD Serono, Ge...

Stroke Mortality And Its Predictors In Nigeria: Results Of A Hospital-Based Study (P2.120)
Conclusion: The 30-day case fatality rate among our stroke patients is high while the independent predictors of this outcome are severity of stroke on admission and presence of complications. Continuing health education of the public on stroke recognition and the need for early hospital presentation is necessary while optimal management of cases in a stroke care unit is advocated in order to improve outcome.Disclosure: Dr. Wahab has nothing to disclose.

Treating Neglect by Body Movements: A Case Report and Follow-Up Study (P3.043)
DISCUSSION: Our initial neglect patient named left-sided objects better when cued to move midline structures to the left. If midline structures are represented more bilaterally in the brain, they may be less affected by body-centered "aiming" bias. Future research would examine whether cueing with the nose/tongue is selectively helpful for patients with more severe neglect or with "aiming" bias and limb akinesia.STUDY SUPPORTED BY: National Institutes of Health and Kessler Foundation.Disclosure: Dr. Chaudhari has nothing to disclose.

Show or No-Show - That Is the Question: Lack of Outpatient Follow-up a After Acute Stroke. (P2.131)
CONCLUSION: Poor follow up rates were seen overall. Medicare, Medicaid, and self-pay patients were least likely to follow up. Patients discharged to inpatient rehabilitation or nursing facilities had a low follow-up rate, as did those patients living at a geographic distance from our facilities. Better education of the importance of follow-up prior to discharge is needed.Disclosure: Dr. Chaudhary has nothing to disclose. Dr. Lee has nothing to disclose.
