Neuroimaging pattern and pathophysiology of cerebellar stroke-like lesions in MELAS with m.3243A>G mutation: a case report

BMC Neurology, 2020
Background Stroke-like episodes (SLEs) in mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) with m.3243A > G mutation usually develop in the cerebral cortex. Few reports have documented SLEs in the cerebellum.

Rheumatoid meningitis presenting with stroke-like episodes [PDF]

Neurology, 2014
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

Statistical analysis of the primary outcome in acute stroke trials [PDF]

, 2012
Common outcome scales in acute stroke trials are ordered categorical or pseudocontinuous in structure but most have been analyzed as binary measures. The use of fixed dichotomous analysis of ordered categorical outcomes after stroke (such as the modified

Inherited Metabolic Causes of Stroke in Children: Mechanisms, Types, and Management

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
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 ...
