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.

Streptococcus Agalactiae Meningitis Presented with Cerebral Infarction in Adult Patient & #8211; Clinical Case and Review
Conclusions: CI is a rare adverse effect of neuro infections leading to an even worse clinical outcome. Early recognition of the infection and appropriate antimicrobial therapy are the crucial moments of successful management of GBS disease.

Intracranial rheumatoid nodule causing recurrent transient neurological deficits
Pract Neurol. 2022 Oct 5:pn-2022-003489. doi: 10.1136/pn-2022-003489. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 67-year-old man with rheumatoid arthritis developed recurrent acute onset of stereotyped focal neurological abnormalities. Cerebral imaging showed a mass lesion in the left parieto-occipital lobe. Imaging did not show the time evolution expected in stroke and so he underwent an extensive workup, which was inconclusive. Brain biopsy identified a rheumatoid nodule causing an extensive inflammatory reaction that mimicked a mass. Following treatment with intravenous corticosteroids and rituximab infusions, his clinical conditi...

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...

Trans-cortical vessels in the mouse temporal bulla bone are a means to recruit myeloid cells in chronic otitis media and limit peripheral leukogram changes
We report trans-cortical vessels in the mouse temporal bone connect to the bulla mucosal vasculature and potentially represent a means to recruit myeloid cells directly into the inflamed bulla. The mutant mouse strains Junbo (MecomJbo/+) and Jeff (Fbxo11Jf/+) develop chronic otitis spontaneously; MecomJbo/+ mice have highly cellular neutrophil (90%) rich bulla exudates whereas Fbxo11Jf/+ mice have low cellularity serous effusions (5% neutrophils) indicating differing demand for neutrophil recruitment. However we found peripheral leukograms of MecomJbo/+ and Fbxo11Jf/+ mice are similar to their respective wild-type litterma...

Bilateral ballism as limb-shaking transient ischemic attacks treated with unilateral carotid artery stent placement
A man in his 80s with no medical history and a heavy smoking habit experienced a sudden involuntary movement of the bilateral limbs, trunk, and tongue. He had mild dysarthria, and could not eat (Video 1). Symptoms lasted for several hours and days, with frequent onset during the day. No consciousness impairments, paralysis, or sensory disturbances were observed. Physical examination and laboratory data did not indicate meningitis, encephalitis, post-infectious causes, or autoimmune disorders.The electroencephalogram showed no abnormalities.
