Abstract Background Neurocysticercosis (NC) is one of the most frequent parasitic diseases central nervous system. Cysticidal drugs, albendazole and praziquantel, are generally effective when parasites localize in parenchyma. In contrast, lodged subarachnoid basal cisterns less responsive to treatment. Case Presentation The clinical radiological pictures six Mexican patients non-respondent cysticidal treatment presented. Conclusions possible factors involved non-response discussed hints...
Information on stroke among severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines remains scarce. We report incidence as an adverse event following immunization (AEFI) recipients of 79,399,446 doses 6 different SARS-CoV-2 (BNT162b2, ChAdOx1 nCov-19, Gam-COVID-Vac, CoronaVac, Ad5-nCoV, and Ad26.COV2-S) between December 24, 2020, August 31, 2021, in Mexico.This retrospective descriptive study analyzed per million hospitalized adult patients (≥18 years) during 8-month interval....

Abstract Extraparenchymal neurocysticercosis is the most severe form of cysticercosis, and response to treatment suboptimal. We sought determine how demographic clinical characteristics albendazole sulfoxide concentrations were related cysticidal response. conducted a longitudinal study 31 participants with extraparenchymal vesicular parasites who received same treatment, 30 mg/kg/day for 10 days dexamethasone 0.4 13 days, followed by prednisone taper. Response was determined parasite...
Information on Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) as an adverse event following immunization (AEFI) against SARS-CoV-2 remains scarce. We aimed to report GBS incidence AEFI among adult (≥18 years) recipients of 81,842,426 doses seven anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccines between December 24, 2020, and October 29, 2021, in Mexico.Cases were retrospectively collected through passive epidemiological surveillance. The overall observed was calculated according the total number administered doses. Vaccines analyzed...

The COVID-19 pandemic led to the development and emergency approval of an array effective vaccines against SARS-CoV-2. Given relatively small number patients included in vaccine trials, postapproval epidemiological surveillance is crucial detect infrequent vaccine-related adverse events. We conducted a nationwide retrospective descriptive study evaluating incidence seizures among recipients SARS-CoV-2 Mexico from December 24, 2020 (date administration first doses nationwide) October 29,...
Background The morbidity and mortality of extraparenchymal neurocysticercosis (EP-NC) remain high effectiveness current medical treatment is suboptimal. Various factors have been implicated in the severity EP-NC poor response to treatment, but possible role host immune endocrine systems has not yet examined thoroughly. Methodology/Principal findings 42 participants with before receiving standard 25 healthy controls were included study. Treatment was assessed by comparing pre/post parasite...
Neurenteric cysts (NECs) are rare congenital, benign lesions of the central nervous system (CNS), predominantly located within spinal cord. However, they may also occur less frequently brainstem, fourth ventricle, or cerebellopontine angle (CPA). Originating from anomalous interactions between embryonic layers, NECs recognized for their potential to compress adjacent structures. We report a unique case disseminated exhibiting few absent symptoms, which represents an unusual presentation this...
Extraparenchymal neurocysticercosis (EP-NC) is a chronic, potentially life-threatening disease that responds poorly to initial anthelmintic drug therapy. A depressed specific reactivity of peripheral lymphocytes and an increased level Tregs accompanies EP-NC. The immune checkpoint pathway PD-1 its ligand PD-L1 downregulates effector T cells, causing suppression in chronic diseases. This study explored whether their soluble forms, sPD-1/sPD-L1, are present plasma among patients with EP-NC if...
Abstract Background In patients affected by neurocysticercosis (NCC), the extraparenchymal location of parasites generates most severe form disease. Due to difficulty in its diagnosis and management, there are still many questions; particular, natural history at this is not well known. Methods We included 21 with vesicular NCC who had received treatment for least 18 months. collected their demographic clinical data, compared imaging studies beginning end period without classified patients,...
Background: The development of mRNA vaccines to prevent SARS-CoV-2 has been remarkably successful, with highly effective available less than one year after confirming the first case. Due global burden COVID-19 on health systems, emergency approval was attained clinical trials relatively small sample sizes and short follow-up periods. Limited information exists about incidence adverse events following immunisation (AEFI), particularly neurologic ones. Here, we describe AEFI reported by...

Diffuse cerebral angiomatosis is a rare disorder of the brain and only 5 cases have been reported to date. We report 16-year-old female patient who presented emergency department with seizures. The had no hereditary syndromes, epistaxis, skin lesions telangiectasia. There was livedo reticularis. ophthalmologic examination within normal limits. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) showed multiple diffuse tortuous vessels all around tissue ventricular system. Brain CT calcifications. Digital...
