Uveitis and Retinal Vasculitis—Harbingers of Neuro-Behcet’s Disease: A Case Report [PDF]
We report this case of Neuro-Behcet’s disease who initially had recurrent episodes of uveitis over a period of 14 years and was under ophthalmological follow-up. Recently, she developed retinal vasculitis and multiple stroke-like episodes.

Diabetes Ketoacidosis and Recurrent Childhood Stroke-like Episodes
A 13-year and 4-month-old girl was brought to the emergency department due to fever, dizziness,vomiting, and blurred vision. Laboratory data revealed hyperglycemia with an HbA1C of 7.3 percent, ketonuria, and lactic acidosis. The initial impression was diabetic ketoacidosis.

Clinicoradiologic Criteria for the Diagnosis of Stroke-like Episodes in MELAS. [PDF]
Stroke-like episodes (SLEs) in patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) syndrome are often misdiagnosed as acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We aimed to determine unique clinical and neuroimaging features for SLEs and formulate diagnostic criteria.We retrospectively identified patients with MELAS ...

Rheumatoid meningitis presenting with stroke-like episodes [PDF]
Neurologic symptoms in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are most often caused by osseous compression, affecting the cervical spine or peripheral neurologic structures. CNS involvement in RA is infrequent, consisting of CNS vasculitis or meningitis with or without meningeal nodules.(1) When meningeal infiltration is seen, symptoms of presentation

Forecasting stroke-like episodes and outcomes in mitochondrial disease [PDF]
Abstract In this retrospective, multicentre, observational cohort study, we sought to determine the clinical, radiological, EEG, genetics and neuropathological characteristics of mitochondrial stroke-like episodes and to identify associated risk predictors.

Inherited Metabolic Causes of Stroke in Children: Mechanisms, Types, and Management
A stroke should be considered in cases of neurologic decompensation associated with inherited metabolic disorders. A resultant stroke could be a classical ischemic stroke (vascular stroke) or more commonly a “metabolic stroke.” A metabolic stroke begins ...
