Outcomes of patients with functional/dissociative seizures after neurobehavioral therapy
Study Overview In investigating the outcomes of patients with functional or dissociative seizures following neurobehavioral therapy, a comprehensive study was conducted to assess the efficacy of this treatment approach. The research aimed to gather data on the effectiveness of neurobehavioral therapy in reducing seizure frequency, improving quality of life, and addressing associated psychological factors. Participants… Read more: Outcomes of patients with functional/dissociative seizures after neurobehavioral therapy
Outcomes of patients with functional/dissociative seizures after neurobehavioral therapy
Study Overview The research focused on evaluating the effects of neurobehavioral therapy on individuals diagnosed with functional or dissociative seizures, conditions often characterized by abnormal movement or behaviors that resemble epileptic seizures but lack a neurological origin. The study aimed to investigate recovery rates, symptom management, and overall quality of life improvements for patients who… Read more: Outcomes of patients with functional/dissociative seizures after neurobehavioral therapy
Seizures and epilepsy in MOG antibody-associated disease: from cortical neuroimmunology to clinical practice
Pathophysiology of MOG Antibody-Associated Disease MOG antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is characterized by the presence of antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), a key component of the central nervous system’s myelin sheath. This condition primarily affects the white matter of the brain and spinal cord, leading to a variety of neurological symptoms. The pathophysiology of MOGAD… Read more: Seizures and epilepsy in MOG antibody-associated disease: from cortical neuroimmunology to clinical practice
Pseudo-Exacerbation in Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis: A Case Report
Understanding Pseudo-Exacerbation Pseudo-exacerbation refers to temporary worsening of neurological symptoms in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS), which can present similarly to a true exacerbation but lacks the hallmark features of an actual relapse. This phenomenon is particularly important in conditions like primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS), where patients often experience gradual neurological decline without discrete… Read more: Pseudo-Exacerbation in Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis: A Case Report
Patient Preferences for Self-Administered Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Therapy in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
Understanding Patient Preferences Patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) often face a variety of treatment options, one of which includes self-administered subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapy (SCIg). Understanding patient preferences for this treatment approach is vital for tailoring care to individual needs and improving treatment adherence. Preferences can significantly affect therapeutic outcomes, as they influence patients’… Read more: Patient Preferences for Self-Administered Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Therapy in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy

When Athletes Ask About Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy
Athletes exposed to repetitive head impacts (RHI) may seek clinical evaluation because of concerns about chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a neuropathologically defined disease that cannot currently be diagnosed during life. As public awareness of CTE has expanded, clinicians face challenges communicating diagnostic uncertainty, interpreting non-specific symptoms, and addressing concerns about future neurological health. This Current […]
Adipsic Hypernatremia Complicated by Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State and Extensive Venous Thromboembolism After Traumatic Brain Injury: A Case Report
Adipsic hypernatremia is a rare disorder characterized by impaired thirst perception despite severe hyperosmolality, most commonly resulting from hypothalamic dysfunction. Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) may further aggravate dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, increasing the risk of neurologic injury, acute kidney injury (AKI), and thromboembolic complications. Reports describing the coexistence of adipsic hypernatremia, HHS, and extensive venous […]
Sensitive detection of in vivo traumatic brain injury foci using magnetic particle imaging
Diagnosing traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a major clinical challenge, particularly for mild to moderate cases, due to the limited sensitivity of conventional imaging modalities like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) in detecting subtle cerebrovascular damage early after injury occurs. Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a novel modality that offers high sensitivity, […]
Multi-Organ Inflammatory and Endocrine Crosstalk Shapes the Early Brain Response to Combined Burn and Blast Injury
The pathology of concomitant burn and traumatic brain injury remains poorly defined, despite their frequent co-occurrence in military settings and the potential for deleterious synergy. To address this gap, we combined established models of blast-induced mild traumatic brain injury and 15% total body surface area flame burn to approximate a common combat-related trauma and examined […]
Seatbelt Use and Traumatic Brain Injury Outcomes After Pediatric Motor Vehicle Collisions
CONCLUSION: Abnormal CT findings were less frequent with seatbelt use, ED TBI severity did not differ significantly. Missing data, limited sample size, and unmeasured crash characteristics constrain causal interpretation.
