Autologous bone marrow mesenchymal cells that include stem (MSCs) are a clinically attractive cellular therapy option to try treat severe spinal cord injury (SCI).To study the possible value of MSCs injected intrathecally enhance rehabilitation.This case control, convenience sample included 64 patients, at mean 3.6 years after SCI. Forty-four subjects received monthly intrathecal autologous for 6 months and 20 subjects, who would not agree procedures, served as controls. All rehabilitation...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected the care of all patients around world. International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) COVID-19 and Telemedicine Task Forces examined, through surveys to people with epilepsy (PWE), caregivers, health professionals, how well-being, care, services for PWE. ILAE included a link on their website whereby PWE and/or caregivers could fill out survey (in 11 languages) about impact pandemic, including access mental health, 6-item Kessler...
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) has updated the operational classification of epileptic seizures, building upon framework established in 2017. This revision, informed by implementation experience, involved a working group appointed ILAE Executive Committee. Comprising 37 members from all regions, utilized modified Delphi process, requiring consensus threshold more than two thirds for any proposal. Following public comments, Committee seven additional experts to...
Purpose Monitoring of raised intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with idiopathic hypertension (IIH) is required to prevent secondary optic nerve damage. Sonographic measurement the sheath diameter (ONSD) a noninvasive method evaluate hypertension. Different ONSD cut-off values have been reported probably due ethnic variations. Our aim was determine sonographic examination points predict ICP IIH patients. Methods This case-control study conducted on 99 post-pubertal female (both probable...
Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the peripapillary and macular vascular density changes in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) patients multiple sclerosis (MS) with previous history optic neuritis correlate loss retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) ganglion cell complex (GCC) density. Patients methods This observational cross-sectional retrospective carried out on 25 divided into two equal groups eyes (20 13 MS 20 12 NMOSD patients), aged 18–50 years both sexes 11...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex autoimmune disease with heterogeneous presentation and diverse course. Recent studies indicate rising prevalence of MS in the Middle East.To characterize demographics features Egyptian patients attending four tertiary referral centers Cairo.This was retrospective, observational study on 1,581 between 2001 2015. Medical records were reviewed data identified extracted standardized electronic registry.The mean age onset 26.6±7.8 years, majority being female...
Early diagnosis and proper monitoring of intracranial pressure (ICP) in idiopathic hypertension (IIH) could reduce morbidity.The objective was to explore monitor reflection raised ICP IIH on optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), papillary height ophthalmic vessels hemodynamics, using transorbital sonography (TOS).The study included 24 patients 30 controls. Patients were compared controls (phase I) then reassessed twice; 1 week 4 weeks later II). Both groups underwent clinical evaluation TOS...
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological conditions. We aimed to identify sex differences in demographic, clinical features, and treatment strategies epileptic patients. To analyze compare impact epilepsy on socio-demographic characteristics male female patients along with gender various types epilepsies strategies. A record-based study for 1000 individuals attending outpatient clinic. The medical records were reviewed through a predesigned questionnaire obtain all relevant data. Data...

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has reached over 276 million people globally with 5.3 deaths as of 22nd December 2021. COVID-19-associated acute and long-term neurological manifestations are well recognized. exact profile the timing events in relation to onset infection worth exploring. aim current body work was determine frequency, pattern, temporal a cohort Egyptian patients confirmed infection. Methods: This prospective study conducted on 582 hospitalized within first two weeks...
Studies have shown that interferon-beta (IFN-β) treatment is associated with headaches in patients multiple sclerosis (MS). Headaches can affect quality of life and overall function MS. We examined the frequency, relationships, patterns, characteristics response to IFN-β relapsing-remitting (RRMS).This study was a prospective, longitudinal analysis 1-year follow-up. The comprised 796 RRMS treated (mean age 30.84±8.98 years) at 5 tertiary referral center outpatient clinics Egypt between...
In epilepsy, early diagnosis, accurate determination of epilepsy type, proper selection antiseizure medication, and monitoring are all essential. However, despite recent therapeutic advances conceptual reconsiderations in the classification management serious gaps still encountered day-to-day practice Egypt as well several other resource-limited countries. Premature mortality, poor quality life, socio-economic burden, cognitive problems, treatment outcomes, comorbidities major challenges...
The current work aimed at investigating the cognitive functions impairment among workers of sewer networks due to exposure hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) and relation this impairment, if any, level H S biomarker ‘urinary thiosulfate.’ Besides, validity using Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) as screening test for exposed was tested. conducted 33 sewage network maintenance male a matched unexposed control group (n = 30). participants were subjected clinical neurological history, estimation...
Fasting is the basis for ketogenic diet, and intermittent fasting emerging as a treatment epilepsy. There are no available data about role of Islamic on seizure control. This study aims to assess effect Ramadan frequency different types.This was prospective observational Muslim patients with active epilepsy intending fast during in year 2019, an average 16 hours per day. Seizure each type followed over three months, one month before (Shaaban), after (Shawwal), ensuring drug compliance.Three...
