Proposed criteria of levels of evidence for co‐occurring epilepsy in people with functional/dissociative seizures

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This work was undertaken to describe the level of evidence for co‐occurring epileptic seizures in patients with known functional/dissociative seizures (FDS) using stratification criteria analogous to the International League Against Epilepsy criteria for functional seizures.

Retrograde tubing as a rescue treatment for megaoesophagus: a case report

BMJ Open Gastroenterology
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a genetic disease of the autonomous and sensory nervous systems. Severe gastro-oesophageal reflux is common and one of the major complications. Some patients with FD develop megaoesophagus.

Prionic diseases

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2013
Prion diseases are neurodegenerative illnesses due to the accumulation of small infectious pathogens containing protein but apparently lacking nucleic acid, which have long incubation periods and progress inexorably once clinical symptoms appear.

Current treatments in familial dysautonomia [PDF]

Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2014
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a rare hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy (type III). The disease is caused by a point mutation in the IKBKAP gene that affects the splicing of the elongator-1 protein (ELP-1) (also known as IKAP). Patients have dramatic blood pressure instability due to baroreflex failure, chronic kidney disease, and impaired ...

Equine botulism

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Botulism is a severe and often fatal disease in equine patients worldwide. Clostridium botulinum is a ubiquitous soil organism which produces a potent neurotoxin resulting in neuromuscular blockade and flaccid paralysis in affected animals. Definitive diagnosis is often impractical or impossible, leading to diagnosis and treatment based on ...

Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype demonstrate altered cardiovascular and autonomic responses to face cooling

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype (PPCS‐P) demonstrate exercise intolerance due to exacerbation of concussion‐like symptoms during incremental exercise. We tested the hypothesis that individuals with PPCS‐P (n = 12) would have a blunted cardiac autonomic response to face cooling compared to healthy

Persistence of fatigue in the absence of pathophysiological mechanisms in some patients more than 2 years after the original SARS‐CoV‐2 infection

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Following an acute infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2), a substantial percentage of patients report the persistence of debilitating symptoms, often grouped in a syndrome termed ‘long COVID’. We sought to identify potential pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the persistence, in some long COVID ...

Neuro‐Immune Crosstalk: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Neurons, immune cells, and other cellular components within the disease microenvironment (such as stromal cells and tumor cells) constitute a dynamically evolving ecosystem. Neurons directly modulate immune cell activity and inflammatory responses through the release of neurotransmitters (e.g., norepinephrine and CGRP), while also promoting tumor ...
