Human Papillomavirus Status and the Risk of Cerebrovascular Events Following Radiation Therapy for Head and Neck Cancer

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundRadiation therapy (RT) is a standard treatment for head and neck cancer; however, it is associated with inflammation, accelerated atherosclerosis, and cerebrovascular events (CVEs; stroke or transient ischemic attack). Human papillomavirus (HPV)

Paroxysmal Sneezing at the Onset of Syncopes and Transient Ischemic Attack Revealing a Papillary Cardiac Fibroelastoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Sneezing can at times be associated with neurological disorders. The “sneeze center” is localized in the lateral medulla. We report the case of a 50-year-old man who presented three episodes of sneezing, two of them followed by an episode of transient ...

Case Report: Unusual Neurological Features of Leigh Syndrome due to m.8993T>G Pathogenic Variant in the MT‐ATP6 Gene

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The MT‐ATP6 gene m.8993T>G pathogenic variant has been associated with Leigh syndrome, especially in patients exhibiting a high degree of heteroplasmy. Although patients may present with a wide phenotypic spectrum, characteristic findings include bilateral, symmetric hyperintensities in the basal ganglia and brainstem on brain MRI ...

B vitamins in patients with recent transient ischaemic attack or stroke in the VITAmins TO Prevent Stroke (VITATOPS) trial:a randomised, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
SummaryBackgroundEpidemiological studies suggest that raised plasma concentrations of total homocysteine might be a risk factor for major vascular events. Whether lowering total homocysteine with B vitamins prevents major vascular events in patients with

The Expanding Clinical and Genetic Spectrum of Muscle Glycogen Storage Disease 0, (GSD0B)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycogen storage disorders are a group of genetic disorders affecting glucose homeostasis in the body. Muscular glycogen stores are essential for liberating glucose for energy supply during bursts of activity and sustained muscle work. Muscle glycogen storage disease 0 (GSD0B) is associated with biallelic variants in GYS1 causing muscular ...

Young Stroke Survivors With No Early Recurrence at High Long‐Term Risk of Adverse Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Approximately 8% to 21% of strokes affect adults aged 5× that of young controls (hazard ratio, 5.2; 95% CI, 2.8–9.4), compared with a 30% increase at 5 years for older patients (hazard ratio, 1.3; 95% CI, 1.3–1.4).

Impact of different anesthetic protocols during anesthesia for the establishment of a porcine model of acute kidney injury

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study details the adaptations required to establish a long‐term anesthetic protocol in pigs. Three protocols were evaluated, with some causing malignant hyperthermia, hypoglycemia, or hemoynamic instability. The final protocol proved effective for developing a porcine AKI model requiring adequate arterial pressure maintenance.

Research advances in dysphagia animal models

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the establishment, evaluation, and detection of dysphagia animal models in stroke, Parkinson's disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in three kinds of experimental animals (including rodents, nonhuman primates, and other mammals), providing a basis for the selection of appropriate animal models of ...

Detection of Varicella Zoster Virus Reactivation in Cerebrospinal Fluid in Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Epidemiological data suggest that the risk of ischemic stroke increases after varicella‐zoster virus (VZV) reactivation. The frequency of VZV reactivation in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is unknown.
