Abstract:
This article describes four new cases from our clinical practices of therapy-related acute leukemia after use of mitoxantrone in the treatment of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and reviews the mechanisms that predispose to this serious complication of treatment. The study consisted of a retrospective case series. Four previously unreported cases of secondary leukemia arising after mitoxantrone therapy in MS patients were identified, out of a combined cohort of 152 patients treated at our institutions. Three of the patients developed the acute promyelocytic leukemia subtype, after varyin

Abstract:
Cavernous malformations are alterations in the conformation of arteries and veins that can be found both intracranial and intraspinal; however, the variables are very important for the diagnosis and treatment of patients. The main clinical manifestation is epileptic seizures in cases of bleeding, but in many cases they are asymptomatic in the course of life and are found as findings related to neuroimaging studies for other reasons. It is more common to find unique lesions, but in cases of multiple lesions it is likely to find an autosomal dominant hereditary factor, which makes the person mor

The increasing popularity of noninferiority trials reflects the ongoing efforts to replace existing treatments (reference treatments) with new treatments (experimental treatments) that retain a substantial fraction of the effect of the reference treatments. The adoption of any new treatment has to be vindicated by a demonstration of benefits that outweigh a possible clinically insignificant reduction in the reference treatment efficacy. Statistical methods have been developed to analyze data collected from noninferiority trials. However, these methods focus on cases with only one reference tre

The seasonality of population data has been of great interest in demographic studies. When seasonality is analyzed, the population at risk plays a central role. In a study of the monthly number of births and deaths, the population at risk is the product of the size of the population and the length of the month. Usually, the population can be assumed to be constant, and consequently, the population at risk is proportional to the length of the month. Hence, the number of cases per day has to be analyzed.

Multiple tracer outflow dilution studies were performed on the normal canine tibia. In all cases 125I-labeled albumin was used as a vascular tracer. In one series of experiments 99mTc-labeled methylene diphosphonate and [14C]sucrose were used as test tracers, and in a second series 85Sr and 22Na were used. A bolus of three tracers was injected into the tibial nutrient artery, and fractional concentrations appearing in the ipsilateral femoral vein were measured for a period of 5 min.

ObjectivesNight shift work has been suggested as a possible risk factor for multiple sclerosis (MS). The objective of the present analysis was to prospectively evaluate the association of rotating night shift work history and MS risk in two female cohorts, the Nurses’ Health Study (NHS) and NHSII.MethodsA total of 83 992 (NHS) and 114 427 (NHSII) women were included in this analysis. We documented 579 (109 in NHS and 470 in NHSII) incident physician-confirmed MS cases (moderate and definite diagnosis), including 407 definite MS cases.

Abstract:
Background: A-waves are lesser-known late responses of debated clinical significance, seen in routine motor nerve conduction studies (NCS). They are proposed to be a sensitive marker of demyelination and an early finding in acute demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP). We hypothesized that the presence and distribution of A-waves are discriminative markers in differentiating AIDP from axonal variants of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). Methods: We identified patients diagnosed with demyelinating and axonal forms of GBS at the Montreal Neurological Institute between 2016 and 2021. Clinical a

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis is most often diagnosed among young adults but less frequently it may present during childhood or adolescence. In Portugal, there has been only one previous single-center, pediatric multiple sclerosis study. The main objective was the evaluation of the demographic, clinical, laboratorial and neuroradiological characteristics of patients with pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis in Portugal. The secondary objectives were to compare the characteristics of childhood-onset multiple sclerosis and adolescent-onset multiple sclerosis and to characterize the treatments p

Evidence from genetic and pathologic studies suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction occurs in multiple sclerosis (MS). Furthermore, cases of MS have been reported in patients with mitochondrial disease. The phenotypic range of mitochondrial illness associating with MS is not yet well defined. In this report, we highlight two cases of patients with confirmed genetic mutations responsible for progressive external ophthalmoplegia who independently meet McDonald criteria for MS.
