Consumer Health: Understanding Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is a rare, degenerative, fatal brain disorder. It affects about 1 person in every 1 million per year worldwide, and about 350 cases are diagnosed per year in the U.S., according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. The cause of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease appears to be abnormal versions of a type of protein called a prion. Normally these proteins are produced in the body and are harmless. But when they're misshapen,…

Exploring the Recent Trends in Management of Dementia and Frailty: Focus on Diagnosis and Treatment
Curr Med Chem. 2022 Apr 8. doi: 10.2174/0929867329666220408102051. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDementia and frailty increase health adversities in older adults, which are topics of growing research interest. Frailty is considered to correspond to a biological syndrome associated with age. Frail patients may ultimately develop multiple dysfunctions across several systems, including stroke, transient ischemic attack, vascular dementia, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies, cortico-basal degeneration, multiple system atrophy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Creutzfe...

Medical and Surgical Management of Left Ventricular Assist Device-Associated Intracranial Hemorrhage
Management of left ventricular assist device (LVAD)-associated intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is complicated by the competing concerns of hematoma expansion and the risk of thrombosis. Strategies include reversal or withholding of anticoagulation (AC) and neurosurgical (NSG) interventions. The consequences of these decisions can significantly impact both short- and long-term survival. Currently no guidelines exist. We reviewed medical and NSG practices following LVAD-associated ICH and analyzed outcomes.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob and Vascular Brain Diseases: Their Overlap and Relationships
In conclusion, a complex of clinical, radiological, and laboratory manifestations of stroke-like onset of CJD is outlined. The clinical relationships between CJD and stroke are considered, in an attempt to highlight this rare presentation of an uncommon disease.

Will MRI replace the EEG for the diagnosis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus, especially focal?
Authors: Gelisse P, Genton P, Crespel A, Lefevre PH Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can now be used to diagnose or to provide confirmation of focal nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE). Approximately half of patients with status epilepticus (SE) have signal changes. MRI can also aid in the differential diagnosis with generalized NCSE when there is a clinical or EEG doubt, e.g. with metabolic/toxic encephalopathies or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. With the development of stroke centers, MRI is available 24h/24 in most hospitals. MRI has a higher spatial resolution than electroencephalography (EEG). MRI wit...
