Orthostatic (postural) hypotension (OH) is a common, yet under diagnosed disorder. It may contribute to disability and even death. can be the initial sign, lead incapacitating symptoms in primary secondary autonomic disorders. These range from visual disturbances dizziness loss of consciousness (syncope) after postural change. Evidence based guidelines for diagnostic workup therapeutic management (non-pharmacological pharmacological) are provided on EFNS guidance regulations. The final...
Peritumoral brain edema in glioblastoma patients is a frequently encountered phenomenon that strongly contributes to neurological signs and symptoms. The role of peritumoral as prognostic factor controversial.This multi-centre clinical retrospective study included 110 with histologically proven glioblastoma. impact on overall survival pre-treatment detected MRI-scans was evaluated. All had preoperative MRI, surgery, histology, received standard treatment regimens. Edema classified minor (<1...
: Supine hypertension commonly occurs in patients with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension due to autonomic failure. promotes nocturnal sodium excretion and hypotension, thus, interfering quality of life. Perusal the literature on essential smaller scale investigations failure also suggest that supine may predispose cardiovascular renal disease. These reasons provide a rationale for treating hypertension. Yet, treatment hypertension, be it through nonpharmacological or pharmacological...
To investigate the impact of coronavirus-disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on European clinical autonomic practice.Eighty-four neurology-driven or interdisciplinary centers in 22 countries were invited to fill a web-based survey between September and November 2021.Forty-six completed (55%). During first year, number performed tilt-table tests, outpatient inpatient visits decreased respectively by 50%, 45% 53%, every-third center reported major adverse events due postponed examinations visits....
Despite aggressive treatment, outcome of patients with glioblastoma is poor. Several distinct clinical problems arise in the terminal stage this disease. The purpose study was to evaluate end-of-life phase a hospital setting glioblastoma. Twenty-nine consecutive glioblastoma, who died our department, were included analysis regarding symptoms, medication, diagnostics, and interventional procedures. comparable respect age, gender, overall survival data from literature. Relevant medications,...
Background:Comprehensive studies on caregiver burden (CB) of persons caring for dementia patients differ methodologically and show variable results. Objective:Analysis known hypothesized factors CB in home care patients. Methods:Multicenter longitudinal study comprising 585 pe rsons mostly Alzheimer's disease (age median 77.25 years, Mini-Mental State Examination raw score 23) using the Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview (CBI). Known patient-related determinants were studied, such as severity...
An expert committee was formed to reach consensus on the use of Tilt Table Testing (TTT) in diagnosis disorders that may cause transient loss consciousness (TLOC) and outline when other provocative cardiovascular autonomic tests are needed. While TTT adds history taking, it cannot be a substitute for it. abnormal result is most meaningful if provoked event recognised by patients or eyewitnesses as similar spontaneous ones. The minimum requirements perform tilt table, continuous beat-to-beat...

Little is known about neurological training curricula in Europe. A joint approach by the European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS), Union Medical Specialists/European Board Neurology and Association Young Neurologist Trainees was established to explore spectrum neurology Europe.In 2006, a questionnaire-based survey on as well demographic data designed WS WG distributed EFNS national delegates EFNS, which comprises all countries Israel.By 2009, from 31 41 (representing 76% 505...
Higher white matter hyperintensity (WMH) load has been reported in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients different brain regions when compared to controls. We aimed assess possible differences of WMH spatial distribution between AD and age-matched controls by means lesion probability maps.The present study included MRI scans 130 probable with a mean age 73.4±8.2 years from the Prospective Dementia Registry Austria Study healthy (HC) Austrian Stroke Prevention Family Study. Risk factors such as...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative that affects the motor system and cognitive behavioral functions. Due to these impairments, PD patients also have problems in using computer. However, computers Internet could help overcome social isolation enhance information search. Specifically, avatars (defined as virtual representations of humans) are increasingly used online environments human-computer interaction by simulating face-to-face interaction. Our laboratory experiment...
Abstract Background and purpose Due to the COVID‐19 pandemic, scientific congresses are increasingly being organized as virtual (VCs). In May 2020, European Academy of Neurology (EAN) held a VC, free charge. absence systematic studies on this topic, aim study is evaluate attendance perceived quality 2020 EAN VC compared 2019 face‐to‐face congress (FFC). Methods An analysis demographic data participants obtained from online registration was done. A comparison two based survey with questions...
