NON-TRAUMATIC DISPLACEMENT OF THE ATLANTO-AXIAL JOINT [PDF]
1. Seven cases of non-traumatic anterior atlanto-axial displacement in young people are recorded. 2. Four of the seven patients showed evidence of neurological compression. All cases improved symptomatically with treatment, but five still show persistent radiological displacement. 3. The mechanism of the displacement is thought to be due to acquired

EA exerts therapeutic effects in ischemic stroke through multiple mechanisms: it alleviates acute injury by suppressing neuroinflammation, excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, apoptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, autophagy dysregulation, and blood–brain barrier disruption, while enhancing cerebral blood flow, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis to support ...

Grisel's Syndrome in an Adult After Endoscopic Nasopharyngectomy
Background Grisel's syndrome is rare in adults, and is characterized by nontraumatic atlanto‐axial subluxation secondary to infection. Here, we report a case of Grisel's syndrome occurring after endoscopic nasopharyngectomy.

ATLANTOAXIAL INSTABILITY IN CHILDREN WITH DOWN SYNDROME [PDF]
Atlantoaxial instability (AAI) occurs in 10 to 30% of Down Syndrome (DS) patients, with symptomatic disease ranging from 1 to 2%. Based on a rare clinical case, this article aims to highlight the main aspects of AAI screening and treatment.

Abstract The Late Cretaceous witnessed numerous transgression–regression sequences and the onset of a global cooling phase at the start of the Campanian. In the European archipelago, these environmental changes, combined with active plate tectonics, facilitated the formation of ephemeral land bridges that served as dispersal routes for a variety of ...

A 3‐year‐old Connemara X filly presented with unilateral nasal discharge and facial swelling. Diagnostic imaging revealed a soft tissue mass with mineralisation and dental pathology (108). Histopathology confirmed a fibro‐inflammatory polyp. This case highlights a rare equine sino‐nasal polyp associated with endodontic disease, demonstrating a ...
