Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are severe and life-changing conditions that result in the disruption of neural pathways and the loss of motor and sensory functions below the site of injury. Finding effective treatment strategies to promote nerve regeneration and functional recovery in SCI patients is a significant challenge for researchers studying neurotrauma. Recent studies have suggested that Semaphorin 3 (SEMA3) proteins, which are primarily involved in guiding nerve growth during development, ...

Given the anticipated increase in the burden of stroke in the coming years, and the limited availability of organized stroke care services in Bangladesh, it is important to assess the awareness among caregivers and design stroke prevention strategies based on social-familial factors. Collaborative action with caregiver engagement can minimize the burden of stroke. This study was conducted based on a conceptual framework to assess the knowledge related to stroke among caregivers of stroke patient...

Neuromyelitis Optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) are a group of inflammatory disorders of the CNS, characterized by severe attacks of optic neuritis and myelitis. There are very few epidemiological studies of NMOSD in Africa. The purpose is to provide descriptive details of all cases published and reported in scientific meetings, analyze epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic, and outcome profiles of NMOSD in Africa and compare our data with literature. Authors did a literature sear...

Orbital tumors are lesions that appear in the orbital craniofacial limits. To this end, teams of different ophthalmologist and neurosurgeon specialists provide the treatment of these tumors. We present here the experience of the neurosurgery department of the military hospital of Rabat in the management of these tumors. We retrospectively evaluated the records of 08 patients with orbital tumors, hospitalized in our neurosurgery department from January 2020 to December 2021. Results: In 06 patien...

Objective: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is one of the most common childhood malignancies, accounting for about 75% of all leukemias and a quarter all of childhood cancers, in this research we aimed at assessing neuro-cognitive consequences in children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia who have been treated with chemotherapy. Methods: 95 children aged between 6 and 12 years old completed Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC III). Sixty-one children were ALL survivors at the Pediat...

Context: Bell’s palsy (BP) is an idiopathic, acute peripheral-nerve palsy involving the facial nerve. BP patients usually present muscular hypotonia, altering the facial expression. These changes can lead to functional insufficiencies and psychological changes. Electrical stimulation (ES) can help prevent muscle atrophy, as well as promote tissue healing, contributing to recovery from facial paralysis. Objective: Review the effectiveness of the application of ES in the treatment of BP. Data Sour...

Background: Neurological, cardiac, and vascular involvement in Behçet disease is very rare with higher mortality. The coexistence of manifestations in the same patient is exceptional. This makes management challenging because of the very high risk of bleeding. Case Summary: We report the case of a 25-year-old man who was admitted with an acute motor deficit in all four limbs. A thoracic angioscan showed a thrombosed aneurysm of the inferior lobar pulmonary arteries bilateral...

Background: Jatropha curcas belongs to the Euphorbiaceae family and is found in the coastal areas of tropics. The leaves, fruits and seeds of the plant are used for various ailments. Not only there are few reported cases of its poisoning in the paediatric age group but also rarely reported to cause neurological manifestation even in adult population. We present a case of a 5 years old that presented with severe acute neurological manifestation soon after ingestion of the seeds of Jatro...
