We encountered two acute stroke cases with apraxia of speech (AOS) due to left internal border‐zone infarction. Neither case had a lower precentral gyrus lesion in the left frontal lobe. The findings obtained confirmed the relationship between AOS with improvement and damage to the left frontal aslant tract (FAT) in stroke. FAT integrity has potential as a prognostic imaging biomarker of AOS. It is important to visualize the fiber connections of white matter using diffusion tensor tractography, which will predict the outcome of AOS.
我们遇到了两例因左侧内边界区梗死而导致语言障碍(AOS)的急性脑卒中病例。这两个病例都没有左额叶前回下部病变。研究结果证实,AOS 的改善与中风时左额叶斜束(FAT)受损之间存在关系。FAT 的完整性有可能成为 AOS 的预后成像生物标志物。利用弥散张量束成像技术观察白质的纤维连接非常重要,它将预测AOS的预后。

In the autosomal recessive disorder of copper metabolism, Wilson's disease (WD), patients present hepatic, neurological, and psychiatric symptoms combined in different and unpredictable ways. Brain pathology primarily affects the basal ganglia and may cause movement, cognitive, affective, and behavioral disturbances. Personality traits have been rarely studied in the neurological form of the disease.To investigate whether patients with the neurological form of WD (WDn) have specific personality traits, especially those typical of frontobasal loop dysfunction.The personality of 29 adult WDn patients (without significant cognitive and psychiatric disorders) and 29 matched healthy controls was assessed using the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI‐2).Compared to healthy individuals, patients with WDn scored higher on the following MMPI‐2 scales: hypochondriasis, physical malfunctioning, bizarre sensory experiences, health concerns, and general health concerns, with no differentiation between patients and controls on the remaining MMPI‐2 scales.Long‐term treated patients with WDn did not appear to have any specific personality traits reflecting unambiguously frontobasal psychopathology, if self‐report measurement is used. The more strongly exhibited features concerning their actual physical ailments and health anxiety, such as hypochondria, chronic fatigue, and poor psychophysical well‐being, could result from psychological reactions to a chronic disabling brain disease. Further study of personality traits and personality disorders is warranted in patients with clearly defined forms of WD, using various measurement tools. Psychopathological disorders in different forms of WD warrant further studies.
威尔逊氏病(WD)是一种常染色体隐性遗传的铜代谢紊乱疾病,患者会出现肝脏、神经和精神症状,这些症状以不同的和不可预知的方式结合在一起。大脑病变主要影响基底神经节,可能导致运动、认知、情感和行为障碍。我们使用明尼苏达多相人格量表(MMPI-2)对 29 名成年 WDn 患者(无明显认知和精神障碍)和 29 名匹配的健康对照者进行了人格评估。与健康人相比,WDn 患者在以下 MMPI-2 量表中得分较高:疑病症、身体机能障碍、奇异感觉体验、健康问题和一般健康问题,而在其余 MMPI-2 量表中,患者和对照组之间没有差异。他们在实际身体疾病和健康焦虑方面表现出的较强特征,如疑病症、慢性疲劳和心理生理健康状况差,可能是对慢性致残性脑部疾病的心理反应所致。有必要使用各种测量工具,对明确界定的 WD 患者的人格特征和人格障碍进行进一步研究。对不同形式的 WD 患者的精神病理障碍也需要进一步研究。

Pneumocephalus develops due to various reasons; however, pneumocephalus caused by factors other than head trauma is rare, and a few cases of infections have been reported. We encountered a case of pneumocephalus caused by Enterobacter cloacae meningoencephalitis following cerebral infarction. Although we could not perform cerebrospinal fluid analysis and culture, E. cloacae was cultured from blood. We conducted an autopsy and confirmed meningoencephalitis in the cerebral infarction lesion. Thus, we considered that E. cloacae meningoencephalitis caused the pneumocephalus. Because bacterial meningoencephalitis is a treatable disease, we should strictly consider that meningoencephalitis due to bacteria such as E. cloacae causes pneumocephalus.
发生气胸的原因多种多样,但由头部外伤以外的其他因素引起的气胸并不多见,感染病例也有少数报道。我们遇到了一例脑梗塞后由泄殖腔肠杆菌脑膜脑炎引起的气胸。虽然我们无法进行脑脊液分析和培养,但从血液中培养出了泄殖腔肠杆菌。我们进行了尸检,证实脑梗塞病灶中存在脑膜脑炎。因此,我们认为泄殖腔杆菌脑膜脑炎是导致气胸的原因。因为细菌性脑膜脑炎是一种可以治疗的疾病,所以我们应该严格考虑是由泄殖腔杆菌等细菌引起的脑膜脑炎导致了肺炎性脑积水。

A 72‐year‐old woman developed left hemiparesis, and her initial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed multiple acute ischemic lesions. Although she was treated with antithrombotic therapies, follow‐up MRI showed a recurrent small ischemic stroke. Her serum CA125 level was markedly elevated, and abdominal computed tomography (CT) and MRI showed a pelvic mass lesion with pleural effusions and ascites, suggesting malignant ovarian tumor associated with Trousseau's syndrome. However, the surgical resection specimens were pathologically diagnosed as benign ovarian fibroma and serous cystadenoma, and she was finally diagnosed as having Meigs syndrome. This case suggested that Meigs syndrome with elevated CA125 levels might play a role in the development of recurrent ischemic strokes.
一名 72 岁的妇女出现左侧偏瘫,最初的磁共振成像(MRI)显示有多处急性缺血性病灶。虽然她接受了抗血栓治疗,但后续磁共振成像显示她再次发生了小范围缺血性中风。她的血清 CA125 水平明显升高,腹部计算机断层扫描(CT)和磁共振成像显示盆腔肿块病变,伴有胸腔积液和腹水,提示恶性卵巢肿瘤伴有特鲁索综合征。然而,手术切除标本经病理诊断为良性卵巢纤维瘤和浆液性囊腺瘤,她最终被诊断为梅格综合征。该病例提示,梅格斯综合征伴有 CA125 水平升高,可能是导致复发性缺血性中风的原因之一。

Patients with neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) can present with encephalitis‐like symptoms such as recurrent paroxysmal fever and unconsciousness. To date, no specific triggers for these symptoms have been reported. In our case, an 78‐year‐old woman became unconscious and developed fever after cerebral angiography. The patient had experienced four episodes of unconsciousness and fever in the past 7 years. Postangiography, she immediately became unconscious and developed fever. No vascular abnormalities were found and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed expanding white matter lesions and hyperintense lesions along the corticomedullary junction. Genetic analysis revealed an abnormal GGC repeat expansion in NOTCH2NLC. Thus, we diagnosed the patient with NIID. We suggest that cerebral angiography is a possible trigger for encephalitis‐like symptoms in NIID.
神经元核内包涵体病(NIID)患者会出现类似脑炎的症状,如反复阵发性发热和昏迷。迄今为止,还没有关于这些症状具体诱因的报道。在我们的病例中,一名 78 岁的妇女在脑血管造影术后出现昏迷和发热。该患者在过去 7 年中曾经历过 4 次昏迷和发烧。做完血管造影术后,她立即昏迷并发烧。没有发现血管异常,脑磁共振成像显示白质病变扩大,皮质髓质交界处出现高密度病变。基因分析显示,NOTCH2NLC 的 GGC 重复扩展异常。因此,我们诊断该患者患有 NIID。我们认为,脑血管造影可能是 NIID 出现脑炎样症状的诱因。

A 76‐year‐old man with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) developed an acute course of the dropped head with diurnal fluctuations that worsened in the evening. He was diagnosed with myasthenic syndrome based on a decreased response to repeated stimulation, as well as increased jitter and blocking on single‐fiber electromyography, indicating disturbed neuromuscular transmission. Dropped head symptom was successfully alleviated and maintained by immunotherapy. Although limited reports are available on SBMA cases accompanied by myasthenic syndrome and on the clinical impact of impaired neuromuscular transmission on SBMA, myasthenic syndrome may be a common condition and even a part of the phenotypic spectrum of SBMA. To our knowledge, this is the first case of SBMA comorbid with myasthenic syndrome limited to the dropped head.
一名 76 岁的脊髓和球部肌肉萎缩症(SBMA)患者出现了急性垂头症状,昼夜波动,傍晚时症状加重。由于对重复刺激的反应减弱,以及单纤维肌电图上的抖动和阻滞增加,表明神经肌肉传导紊乱,他被诊断为肌萎缩综合征。免疫疗法成功缓解并维持了患者的垂头症状。虽然关于伴有肌萎缩综合征的 SBMA 病例以及神经肌肉传导受损对 SBMA 的临床影响的报道有限,但肌萎缩综合征可能是一种常见病,甚至是 SBMA 表型谱的一部分。据我们所知,这是首例SBMA合并肌萎缩综合征的病例,且仅限于头部下垂。

An 83‐year‐old woman presented with an acute course of dropped head syndrome (DHS) with muscle weakness localized to the neck. Serum calcium and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels were elevated to 12.2 mg/dL and 173 pg/mL, respectively, and 99mTc‐MIBI scintigraphy showed a hyperfunctioning parathyroid gland. Electromyography revealed myopathic features in the posterior neck extensor muscles. Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT)‐associated myopathy was diagnosed as the cause of the DHS. Oral administration of evocalcet ameliorated DHS and normalized the elevated serum calcium levels, whereas iPTH levels remained elevated. Subsequently, parathyroidectomy reduced the iPTH level to normal, and DHS did not flare‐up. Cases of PHPT with DHS as the initial symptom are extremely rare, and to our knowledge, this is the first report of remission of DHS with evocalcet. Therefore, serum iPTH levels may not necessarily correlate with muscle weakness.
一名83岁的妇女出现了急性垂头综合征(DHS),并伴有颈部局部肌无力。血清钙和完整甲状旁腺激素(iPTH)水平分别升高至 12.2 mg/dL 和 173 pg/mL,99m锝-MIBI 闪烁扫描显示甲状旁腺功能亢进。肌电图显示颈后伸肌具有肌病特征。原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症(PHPT)相关肌病被诊断为DHS的病因。口服 evocalcet 可改善 DHS,并使升高的血清钙水平恢复正常,但 iPTH 水平仍然升高。随后,甲状旁腺切除术将 iPTH 水平降至正常,DHS 也不再复发。以DHS为首发症状的PHPT病例极为罕见,据我们所知,这是第一例用evocalcet缓解DHS的病例。因此,血清 iPTH 水平不一定与肌无力相关。

Definition of refractory migraine and their evolution 难治性偏头痛的定义及其演变
IF 0.4 Pub Date : 2024-06-07 DOI: 10.1111/ncn3.12835

The term ‘refractory migraine’ (RM) is commonly used in clinical settings; however, it is not recognized in the International Classification of Headache Disorders, third edition. A growing need for a shared definition of refractoriness has been highlighted by a multidisciplinary expert group. Although definitions for RM currently exist, the key parameters for the definition of refractoriness (e.g., unresponsiveness to treatment, high frequency, severe disability, or all of these features) remain contentious. Thus, a consensus on the definition of RM is crucial.Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) is a neuropeptide that plays an important role in migraine pathophysiology and is a target for migraine preventive therapies. Monoclonal antibodies targeting the CGRP (i.e., galcanezumab, fremanezumab, and eptinezumab) and its receptor (erenumab) have shown consistent efficacy for migraine prophylaxis with excellent safety profiles. Their effect on refractory cases has also been reported, offering promise to the many patients who have not found relief with existing treatments. Therefore, we anticipate a paradigm shift in migraine treatment.Following the widespread use of monoclonal antibodies targeting the CGRP and its receptor, the European Headache Federation proposed a definition for two subsets of difficult‐to‐treat migraine—resistant and refractory migraine—that considers both the frequency and disability caused by single and frequent attacks.We expect that this definition will help resolve previous conflicts that have limited the use of earlier definitions.
难治性偏头痛"(refractory migraine,RM)一词在临床上被广泛使用,但《国际头痛疾病分类》(International Classification of Headache Disorders)第三版并未承认这一术语。一个多学科专家组强调,人们越来越需要一个共同的难治性定义。尽管目前已有关于难治性头痛的定义,但对难治性定义的关键参数(如对治疗无反应、高频率、严重残疾或所有这些特征)仍存在争议。降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)是一种神经肽,在偏头痛病理生理学中起着重要作用,也是偏头痛预防疗法的靶点。针对 CGRP(即 galcanezumab、fremanezumab 和 eptinezumab)及其受体(erenumab)的单克隆抗体已显示出对偏头痛预防的一致疗效和良好的安全性。它们对难治性病例的疗效也有报道,这为许多无法通过现有疗法缓解症状的患者带来了希望。随着针对CGRP及其受体的单克隆抗体的广泛应用,欧洲头痛联盟提出了难治性偏头痛和难治性偏头痛两个子集的定义,该定义同时考虑了单次和频繁发作的频率和造成的残疾。

A growing need for a shared definition of refractoriness has been highlighted by a multidisciplinary expert group. Although definitions for RM currently exist, the key parameters for the definition of refractoriness (e.g., unresponsiveness to treatment, high frequency, severe disability, or all of these features) remain contentious. Thus, a consensus on the definition of RM is crucial.Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) is a neuropeptide that plays an important role in migraine pathophysiology and is a target for migraine preventive therapies. Monoclonal antibodies targeting the CGRP (i.e., galcanezumab, fremanezumab, and eptinezumab) and its receptor (erenumab) have shown consistent efficacy for migraine prophylaxis with excellent safety profiles. Their effect on refractory cases has also been reported, offering promise to the many patients who have not found relief with existing treatments. Therefore, we anticipate a paradigm shift in migraine treatment.Following the widespread use of monoclonal antibodies targeting the CGRP and its receptor, the European Headache Federation proposed a definition for two subsets of difficult‐to‐treat migraine—resistant and refractory migraine—that considers both the frequency and disability caused by single and frequent attacks.We expect that this definition will help resolve previous conflicts that have limited the use of earlier definitions.","PeriodicalId":19154,"journal":{"name":"Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141373771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
