Primary suprasellar germinoma (PSG) is a rare malignant tumor of the central nervous system. This study aimed to explore the clinical characteristics, treatment protocol, and prognosis of patients with PSG. This case series retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with PSG in Tianjin Huanhu Hospital diagnosed between January 2016 and December 2021. Fifteen patients with an average age of 19.6 years were included, in which nine of them were males. The mean duration between initial symptoms and admission was 17...

BACKGROUND: Although global vaccination against COVID-19 infection has its excellence, potential side effects are yet of concern. Several lines of evidence have proposed ADEM occurrence after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Moreover, a large number of case reports and case series have also suggested the casual association between ADEM and COVID-19 vaccination. To better understand the development of ADEM following COVID-19 vaccination and its potential association, we aimed to systematically review ADEM cases reported after COVID-19 vaccination...

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension from spinal cerebrospinal fluid leak is a condition that often presents as orthostatic headaches. Diagnosis and localisation of spinal CSF leaks remain difficult despite multiple imaging modalities that can be used to aid identification. These include traditional CT myelography and MRI as well as newer techniques such as dynamic and digital subtraction myelography. Leaks can be classified into types and optimal localisation and management techniques vary by type of leak...

BACKGROUND: The burden of having neurologic symptoms (NS) in cancer patients has scantly been studied; therefore, we performed a study whose purpose was to measure the impact of having clinically active (NS) on the quality of life (QoL) of non-primary CNS cancer patients. METHODS: Patients with systemic cancer (non-primary CNS cancer) sent for neurological evaluation at a single cancer center (INCAN) were prospectively invited to respond the EORTC-QLQ-C30 and BN20 questionnaires...

Translational research aims to apply what we learn in the lab to the patient's care in the clinical setting. Animal studies for Parkinson's disease and Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) are particularly intriguing topics that show the value of translational research. Training a monkey to complete a task, inducing Parkinsonian symptoms, and comparing kinematic differences with various DBS settings is a transformative process of motion creation, death, and rebirth. The historical context of the drug used to induce Parkinsonian symptoms and DBS technology demonstrates how our field progresses from trial and error and evolves into enhancing patient care...

INTRODUCTION: Surgical fixation is widely practised in the management of spinal deformity. S1 screws are commonly incorporated in lumbosacral fusions and can be performed in both open and percutaneous techniques. However, their entry point is determined by the position of the pedicle as well as the posterior iliac interval (PII), as it creates an impedance for screw angulation. A wider angle screw has the potential to achieve a greater length and thus strength versus a narrow screw angle insertion due to risk of anterior breach...

BACKGROUND: Elderly patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy frequently have severe symptoms due to spondylolisthesis. The effectiveness of laminoplasty for degenerative cervical spondylolisthesis (DCS) is an important question. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to elucidate factors associated with the outcome of laminoplasty for DCS. METHOD: Eighty-nine patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) who underwent laminoplasty without instrumented posterior fusion were enrolled...

The recent C1 pedicle screw technique for upper cervical vertebral stabilization allows longer screws to be implanted by setting the screw entry point through the posterior arch of C1, which could provide better biomechanics. However, there is controversy regarding the placement of C1 pedicle screws at different angles. We retrospectively reviewed the computed tomography (CT) scans of 300 patients. The trajectories of medial inclination of 0°, 5°, 10°, and 15° and trajectory of the maximum medial inclination angle were designed for each C1 pedicle on CT images...

Although anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) is an established surgery for medically intractable mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), it can harm memory function, especially in dominant-side MTLE patients without hippocampal sclerosis (HS). To avoid this complication, multiple hippocampal transection (MHT) was developed, but its efficacy has not been fully elucidated. We report the detailed treatment results of MHT compared with that of ATL. We retrospectively analysed the records of 30 patients who underwent surgery for dominant-side MTLE...

BACKGROUND: Previous studies mainly reported perpendicular and medial inclination insertion methods for C1 transpedicular screw insertion (TSI). Our recent study showed the ideal C1 transpedicular screw trajectory (TST) can be achieved by medial inclination, perpendicular or even lateral inclination insertion, and Axis C can be a reliable trajectory. The purpose of this study is to confirm Axis C is an ideal C1 TST by comparing the cortical perforation differences between actual C1 TSI and virtual C1 transpedicular screw insertion along Axis C (Virtual C1 Axis C TSI)...

PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate the correlation between fibrinogen levels and functional outcomes at 90 days after intravenous thrombolysis therapy (IVT) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke (AIS). METHODS: We identified patients with AIS who received IVT (alteplase 0.6 or 0.9 mg/kg) between 1 January 2019 and 31 March 2022 in Yancheng 1st People's Hospital. Fibrinogen levels were measured before IVT, and the 90-day post-stroke functional outcome was evaluated using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS)...

Translating the updated medical guidelines into routine clinical practice is an important initiative to improve the population's health and decrease disease outcomes. A cross-sectional survey-based study was conducted in Riyadh City, Saudi Arabia, to evaluate the knowledge and degree of application (practice) of the stroke management guidelines among emergency resident physicians. An interview-based self-administered questionnaire was used to survey the emergency resident doctors in Riyadh hospitals from May 2019 to January 2020...

BACKGROUND: Ventriculostomy - related infection (VRI) is a common complication of patients who require placement of an external ventricular drain (EVD). The clinical outcomes of people who are diagnosed with VRI is poorly characterised. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the association between VRI, and clinical outcomes and resource use, in patients treated with an EVD. METHODS: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL and the Cochrane Central Register of clinical trials to identify clinical trial and cohort studies that reported outcomes including mortality, functional outcome, duration of EVD insertion, and intensive care and hospital length of stay...

PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of the coexistence of fetal-type posterior communicating artery (fPCA) and anterior cerebral artery (ACA) A1 segment agenesis/hypoplasia on the rupture of an anterior communicating artery (AComA) aneurysm. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 216 patients consecutively presenting with AComA aneurysms between January 2014 and December 2021 on digital subtraction angiography were evaluated. Patients without three-dimensional rotational angiography images, those aged under 18 years, those with suspected mycotic aneurysms, and those with dissecting and giant aneurysms were excluded from the study...

Following acute brain injury, frequent neurological examinations ("neurochecks") are commonly prescribed and form the cornerstone of many care protocols and guidelines (e.g., for intracranial hemorrhage). While these assessments are intended to identify and mitigate secondary injury, they may unintentionally contribute to additional injury related to neurocheck-associated sleep disruption. Data are lacking to define patterns of neurological decline following acute brain injury, as are data to define the short- and long-term consequences (e...

BACKGROUND: Syringomyelia is a chronic, progressive disease of the spinal cord. Syringomyelia is an etiologically diverse affliction caused by disturbance of normal cerebrospinal fluid flow dynamics. Lesions are characterized by the formation of tubular cavities in the gray matter of the spinal cord and gliosis; however, the etiology is unknown and treatment methods differ. Many existing studies have focused on the relationship between other diseases and syringomyelia. There is a lack of comprehensive and objective reports on the research status of syringomyelia...
