Papilledema Secondary to Neurologic Lyme Borreliosis: A Meta-Case Series
Conclusions: For patients in endemic regions who describe symptoms suggestive of intracranial hypertension and papilledema, especially accompanied by facial nerve palsy and other cranial nerve palsies, underlying neurologic LB should be considered.

Dicoumarol inhibits rat NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase in vitro and induces its expression in vivo.
CONCLUSION: Our results indicate a dual role of dicoumarol in NQO1-mediated genotoxicty of AAI. It acts both as an NQO1 inhibitor mainly in vitro and as an NQO1 inducer if administered to rats. PMID: 25638376 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The effects of heavy metal ions, phthalates and ochratoxin A on oxidation of carcinogenic aristolochic acid I causing Balkan endemic nephropathy.
CONCLUSION: The results show low effects of BBP, cadmium and selenium ions, and/or their combinations on AAI detoxication. No effects were produced by the other metal ions (Pb, As) and phthalates DBP and DEHP. This finding suggests that they do not influence AAI-mediated BEN development. In contrast, OTA might influence this process, by inhibition of AAI detoxication. PMID: 26757129 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Molecular Neuro-Pathomechanism of Neurocysticercosis: How Host Genetic Factors Influence Disease Susceptibility
AbstractNeurocysticercosis (NCC) is one of the most neglected tropical diseases among widely endemic neurological diseases. It is caused by cysticerci ofTaenia solium. The clinical symptom for the outcome of infection and progression of disease is pleomorphic and its neuro-pathomechanism is still illusive. Identification of host genetic factors and their association with disease susceptibility is one of the most important areas of research towards personalized medicine in the era of omics. Several genes and their allelic variations had been identified to be associated with various neurological disorders; however, the infor...

Analysis of google trends and search results for ophthalmic symptoms of monkeypox
ConclusionSearch interest in monkeypox ophthalmic symptoms corresponds with geographic and temporal trends, i.e., timing and location of the first reported non-endemic cases and WHO announcement. Although ophthalmic symptoms are not as widely searched currently, inclusion in public health messaging is key for diagnosis, appropriate management, and reduction of further transmission.

Spinal and cranio-cervical mycetoma: a difficult surgery, with poor prognosis
CONCLUSION: The surgical treatment of CNS actinomycetoma presented poor prognosis and a disseminating recurrence. We believe that clinicians and surgeons must be informed about these "new" infectious pathologies that are so difficult to treat, especially with the arrival of migrant patients from endemic countries in conflict.PMID:34157340 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2021.06.002

Cerebral hydatid cyst in children: a case series of 21 patients and review of literature
CONCLUSION: Intracranial hydatid disease should be suspected in case of intracranial hypertension in children and adolescents from endemic countries. The diagnosis is confirmed by head CT. Treatment is mainly surgical, and prognosis is favorable. Prevention is the most effective way of addressing this disease, and we therefore stress the importance of investing in population education and animal control.PMID:35907445 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2022.07.005
