Efficacy of CT Guided Epidural Blood Patch for Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension: a Case Series
Incidence of Supine intracranial hypotension(SIH) is 5/100000 in a year and is more common in females. It presents with postural headache secondary to structural dural weakness resulting in atraumatic cerebrospinal fluid leak.

Hamman's crunch—A pathognomonic sign of pneumomediastinum
Summary Pneumomediastinum, particularly spontaneous pneumomediastinum, is uncommon and presents a diagnostic challenge. In human medicine, auscultation of Hamman's crunch, a crepitant, crunching noise, audible over the cardiac region in synchrony with the heartbeat, is considered pathognomonic for pneumomediastinum.

ABSTRACT The mouse sleep is mostly recorded with only epidural electrodes and divided simply into NREM and REM stages. With the help of distributed intracerebral triplet electrodes, we searched for possible new electrophysiological signatures to characterise more specific sleep substages within the timeframe of seconds to tens of minutes.

ABSTRACT Equine protozoal myeloencephalitis can cause acute infections with rapid onset of neurologic signs, necessitating immediate empiric therapy with antiprotozoal medication. The objective of the study was to identify when concentrations of diclazuril reached the MIC of Sarcocystis neurona in CSF (1 ng/mL) of healthy adult horses after a single ...
