Introduction: No lesion on admission DWI but delayed appearance in the follow-up DWI are not uncommon in acute stroke. Our aim is to investigate clinical features of patients with delayed-high intensity area (DHIA) on follow-up DWI. Methods: We enrolled 1) TIA patients and 2) clinically suspected stroke patients sustaining a neurological deficit over 24 hours without ischemic lesion on initial DWI. Follow-up DWI was performed in 7 days after admission. We divided into two groups as follows; DHIA group and no hyper-intense lesion on initial and second DWI (NHIA group). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were conducted on backgrounds, clinical courses including time from onset to MRI, symptom duration, and favorable outcome (mRS 0-1) in 3 months in both groups. Results: One hundred seventy-two cases were identified (male 68%, median age 66 yo, median NIHSS score 1, delayed-HIA group; 48 patients) between October 2012 and March 2019. DHIA group was older (72 yo vs 64 yo, p<0.001), higher NIHSS score on admission (1 vs 0, p=0.001), elevated serum BNP (42.5 pg/dL vs 15.6 pg/dL, p<0.001), D-Dimer (0.8 μg/mL vs 0.6 μg/mL, p=0.023). Then, favorable outcome was frequently observed in NHIA group (72% vs 88%, p=0.019). Time from onset to initial DWI of DHIA group was similar with those of NHIA group (130 min vs 148 min, p=0.142). Age and NIHSS score on admission were independent factors for DHIA (Age: OR 1.03, 95%CI 1.01-1.06, p=0.021, NIHSS on admission: OR 1.21, 95%CI 1.04-1.40, p=0.011). Conclusion: Follow-up DWI may play an important role of outcome biomarker in TIA and initially suspected stroke. Repeated MRI should be performed for elder and severe neurological deficits.

Background:IgA vasculitis (IgAV) could be limited to skin or evolve into a systemic disease, affecting characteristically joints, gastrointestinal tract and/or kidneys.Objectives:We aimed to look for differences between adult IgAV patients with disease limited to skin compared to systemic IgAV.Methods:Medical records of histologically proven adult IgAV cases, diagnosed between January 2010 and December 2020 at our secondary/tertiary rheumatology centre were analyzed.Results:During the 132-month observation period we identified 328 new IgAV cases (59.5% males, median (IQR) age 64.3 (45.1; 76.1) years). Ninety-four (40.2%) patients had skin limited disease, and the rest systemic IgAV.Clinical differences between skin limited and systemic adult IgAV are presented in table 1. Adults with IgAV limited to skin were significantly older, had less commonly skin lesions above the waistline and a lower level of C reactive protein compared to patients with a systemic disease. There were no differences in the frequency of skin necroses between the compared IgAV subgroups. The frequency of potential vasculitis triggers (prior infections, new medications, malignancy) was similar between the compared subgroups.Table 1.Clinical characteristics of IgA vasculitis patients with skin limited and systemic diseaseClinical characteristicsSkin limited IgAV (94)Systemic IgAV (234)P valueMale gender (%)54.361.50.263Age (years)*68.0 (55.0-80.5)61.5 (41.7-75.8)0.007Current smoker (%)13.821.80.123Antecedent infection (%)28.733.80.434New medication23.423.51.0History of cancer12.810.70.569Symptom duration (days)*7 (5-21)8 (5-14)0.756Purpura above waistline36.255.60.002Skin necroses (%)52.145.70.329ESR /mm/h) *32 (18-52)34 (17-53)0.873CRP (g/l) *13.5 (1-32)30 (11-68)<0.001Elevated serum IgA (%)50.649.10.892Legend: * median and IQR;Follow up data were available for 250 (76.2%) patients.

Abstract. Serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate concentrations were measured in 70 patients with prolactinoma and in 54 patients with acromegaly with normal adrenocortical function. Compared with values in normal subjects of corresponding age, serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate levels were increased in 22 patients with prolactinoma (31%) and in 5 patients with acromegaly (9%). The four acromegalic patients who had elevated serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate levels had hyperprolactinemia. The mean serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate concentrations in patients with prolactinoma in each decade decreased with advancing age. There was a significant negative correlation between serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate concentrations and ages of the patients with prolactinoma. In all 8 women with prolactinoma as in 6 normal women, serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate levels declined definitely during the 9 years of follow-up despite persistent hyperprolactinemia. These results indicate that serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate levels are increased in a substantial number of patients with hyperprolactinemia, however, PRL per se may not play a significant role in the age-related change in serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate levels.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Due to the complexity of Spetzler-Martin (SM) grade IV-V arteriovenous malformations (AVM), the management of these lesions remains controversial. The aims of this multicenter, retrospective study are to evaluate outcomes after single-session stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for SM grade IV-V AVMs and determine predictive factors. METHODS We pooled data from 233 patients (mean age 33 years) with SM grade IV (94.4%) or V AVMs (5.6%) treated with single-session SRS at eight participating centers in the International Gamma Knife Research Foundation. Pre-SRS embolization was performed in 71 AVMs (30.5%). The mean nidus volume, SRS margin dose, and follow-up duration were 9.7 cc, 17.3 Gy, and 84.5 months, respectively. RESULTS >At a mean follow-up interval of 84.5 months, favorable outcome was defined as AVM obliteration, no post-SRS hemorrhage, and no permanently symptomatic radiation-induced changes (RIC) and was achieved in 26.2% of patients. The actuarial obliteration rates at 3, 7, 10, and 12 years were 15%, 34%, 37% and 42%, respectively. The annual post-SRS hemorrhage rate was 3.0%. Symptomatic and permanent RIC occurred in 10.7% and 4% of the patients, respectively. Only larger AVM diameter (P = 0.04) found to be an independent predictor of unfavorable outcome in the multivariate logistic regression analysis. The rate of favorable outcome was significantly lower for unruptured SM grade IV-V AVMs compared to ruptured ones (P = 0.042). Prior embolization was a negative independent predictor of AVM obliteration (P = 0.024) and radiologically evident RIC (P = 0.05) in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSION In this multi-institutional study, single session SRS had limited efficacy in the management of SM grade IV-V AVMs Favorable outcome was only achieved in a minority of unruptured SM grade IV-V AVMs, which supports less frequent utilization of SRS for the management of these lesions. A volume staged SRS approach for large AVMs represents an alternative approach for high grade AVM’s, but it requires further investigation.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with heart failure (HF) contributes to a poorer prognosis. However, in those with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), the true prevalence and role of PH is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the profile of DCM patients at various levels of PH risk, determined via echocardiography, and its impact on outcomes. The 502 DCM in- and out-patient records were retrospectively analyzed. Information on patient status was gathered after 45.9 ± 31.3 months. Patients were divided into 3 PH-risk groups based on results from echocardiography measurements: low (L, n = 239, 47.6%), intermediate (I, n = 153, 30.5%), and high (H, n = 110, 21.9%). Symptom duration, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachyarrhythmia, ejection fraction, right atrial area, and moderate or severe mitral regurgitation were found to be independently associated with PH risk. During the follow-up period, 83 (16.5%) DCM patients died: 29 (12.1%) in L, 31 (20.3%) in I, and 23 (20.9%) in H. L-patients had a significantly lower risk of all-cause death (L to H: HR 0.55 (95%CI 0.32–0.98), p = 0.01), while no differences in prognosis were found between I and H. In conclusion, over one in five DCM patients had a high PH risk, and low PH risk was associated with better prognoses.

OBJECT Surgery in the insular region is considered challenging because of its vascular relationships, the proximity of functional structures, and its deep location in the sylvian fissure. The authors report the incidence and consequences of ischemic lesions after operculoinsular corticectomy for refractory epilepsy. METHODS The authors retrospectively reviewed the data of all patients who underwent an insular resection with or without an opercular resection for refractory epilepsy at their center. All patients underwent postoperative MRI, enabling a radiological analysis of the ischemic lesions as a result of the corticectomies. The resections were classified according to the location and extent of the insular corticectomy and the type of operculectomy. Each patient underwent clinical follow-up. RESULTS Twenty patients underwent surgery. All patients underwent insular corticectomy with or without an operculectomy. Ischemic lesions were identified in 12 patients (60%). In these patients, 11 ischemic lesions (55%) were related to the insular corticectomy, and 1 was related to the associated periinsular resection. The ischemic lesions associated with the insulectomies were typically located in the corona radiata running from the insula to the periventricular region. Nine patients (45%) developed a postoperative neurological deficit, among whom 6 (67%) had an insular corticectomy–related ischemic lesion. All reported neurological deficits were transient. Five patients (25%) had ischemic lesions without neurological deficit. CONCLUSIONS Operculoinsular corticectomies are associated with ischemic lesions in approximately 60% of patients. However, given that no patient had a definitive postoperative deficit, these ischemic lesions have few clinical consequences. Therefore, this surgical procedure can be considered reasonably safe for the treatment of refractory epilepsy.

Introduction: The correlation between serum polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA), Arachidonic Acid (AA) and Dihomogammalinolenic Acid (DHLA) levels and clinical outcomes of cardiovascular disease are previously reported. The aim was to investigate serum PUFAs including AA levels to clinical outcome in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients. Method: From Nov 2012 to Nov 2019, ICH patients within 24 hours from the onset were enrolled. All patients underwent radiological investigations and laboratory examinations including measurement of serum PUFAs levels on admission. We divided patients into two groups, favorable outcome group (mRS at 3 months 0-3) and poor outcome group (mRS at 3 months 4-6). We compared baseline variables including serum PUFAs levels between two groups. Result: We enrolled 142patients (87 male, median age 60 years old, median NIHSS score 8). Of them, 113 patients (80%) were favorable outcome group and 29 patients (20%) were poor outcome group. Higher NIHSS score and larger size of hematoma on admission were found in poor outcome group (median NIHSS score 6 of favorable outcome vs. 14 of poor outcome, p<0.001, and median hematoma size, 7.5ml vs. 13.5ml, p=0.048). In serum PUFAs levels, only serum AA levels was significantly lower in poor outcome group (median interval 213μg/ml vs. 179μg/ml, p=0.002) though there were no difference of DHLA, EPA and DHA levels between two groups. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, lower serum AA levels was independently associated with poor outcome (OR 0.987, 95%CI 0.978-0.996, p=0.007, Figure). Conclusion: Serum AA levels may play an important role in predicting the outcome in ICH.

Background: Avascular necrosis is a common complication in patients with SLE. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for occurrence of avascular necrosis among SLE patients receiving steroid therapy at various doses, in combination with immunosuppressants. Methods: In this retrospective study, the medical records of all SLE patients under follow-up at the outpatient clinics of Cairo and kafr Elsheikh University hospitals through the period from November 2014 to August 2019, were included. The avascular necrosis was diagnosed by the findings of different imaging modalities. Results: We retrieved the medical records of 770 SLE patients during the study period; of them, 55 patients (7.1%) had avascular necrosis. There was significant higher usage of cyclophosphamide (p = 0.003), total cumulative dose of steroids 15-35g plus immunosuppressants (p < 0.001), and steroids >35g plus Immunosuppressants (p = 0.016) in avascular necrosis cohort. Based on the univariate analysis, disease duration more than five years and cumulative use of steroids were statistically significant predictors for the evolvement of avascular necrosis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that disease duration more than five years was associated independently with avascular necrosis. Conclusion: Our data seem to show a role of the association of immunosuppressant plus steroid on the risk to develop avascular necrosis.

OBJECTIVE Previous studies have demonstrated that an important factor in seizure freedom following surgery for lesional epilepsy in the peri-eloquent cortex is completeness of resection. However, aggressive resection of epileptic tissue localized to this region must be balanced with the competing objective of retaining postoperative neurological functioning. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of intraoperative MRI (iMRI) as a complement to existing epilepsy protocol techniques and to compare rates of seizure freedom and neurological deficit in pediatric patients undergoing resection of perieloquent lesions. METHODS The authors retrospectively reviewed the medical records of pediatric patients who underwent resection of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) or heterotopia localized to eloquent cortex regions at the Children's National Health System between March 2005 and August 2015. Patients were grouped into two categories depending on whether they underwent conventional resection (n = 18) or iMRI-assisted resection (n = 11). Patient records were reviewed for factors including demographics, length of hospitalization, postoperative seizure freedom, postoperative neurological deficit, and need for reoperation. Postsurgical seizure outcome was assessed at the last postoperative follow-up evaluation using the Engel Epilepsy Surgery Outcome Scale. RESULTS At the time of the last postoperative follow-up examination, 9 (82%) of the 11 patients in the iMRI resection group were seizure free (Engel Class I), compared with 7 (39%) of the 18 patients in the control resection group (p = 0.05). Ten (91%) of the 11 patients in the iMRI cohort achieved gross-total resection (GTR), compared with 8 (44%) of 18 patients in the conventional resection cohort (p = 0.02). One patient in the iMRI-assisted resection group underwent successful reoperation at a later date for residual dysplasia, compared with 7 patients in the conventional resection cohort (with 2/7 achieving complete resection). Four (36%) of the patients in the iMRI cohort developed postoperative neurological deficits, compared with 15 patients (83%) in the conventional resection cohort (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that in comparison with a conventional surgical protocol and technique for resection of epileptic lesions in peri-eloquent cortex, the incorporation of iMRI led to elevated rates of GTR and postoperative seizure freedom. Furthermore, this study suggests that iMRI-assisted surgeries are associated with a reduction in neurological deficits due to intraoperative damage of eloquent cortex.

Objective The objective of this article is to describe the trigeminal neuralgia related to cerebral vascular malformation that is rarely reported and the experience referring to endovascular treatment. Patients and methods A total of 10 patients who had cerebral vascular malformation (AVM and dAVF) in a single center presented with trigeminal neuralgia. Clinical and angiographic presentations as well as their clinical outcomes after embolization were reviewed. Results Of the 10 cases, seven dAVFs and three AVMs were detected. In contrast to the dilated feeding arteries, an ectasia of the draining vein that is adjacent to the root entry zone of the trigeminal nerve such as the petrosal vein and lateral mesencephalic vein has the major role in causing the trigeminal neuralgia. All of these patients had relief of facial pain after endovascular embolization during follow-up (mean 57.3 months, range 5 to 100 months). There were no permanent neurological deficits. Conclusions Endovascular embolization is an effective method in treating trigeminal neuralgia related to cerebral vascular malformation.
