OBJECTIVE To describe the epidemiologic, clinical, neuroimaging, and laboratory features; treatment; and outcome in a cohort of children with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). METHODS A 6-year retrospective chart review of children with the diagnosis of ADEM was conducted. RESULTS Eighteen cases were identified. Sixteen patients (88%) presented in either winter or spring. Thirtee...

To a compact Lie group $G$ one can associate space $E(2,G)$ akin to the poset of cosets abelian subgroups discrete group. The was introduced by Adem, F. Cohen and Torres-Giese, subsequently studied Adem G\'omez, other authors. In this short note, we prove that is if only $\pi_i(E(2,G))=0$ for $i=1,2,4$. This analogue fact simply--connected abelian.

The immunization of adolescent girls with the human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccines, a bivalent Cervarix and a quadrivalent Gardasil, has been widely introduced to prevent uterine and cervical cancer (1). Since the regulatory approval of the first quadrivalent HPV vaccine in 2006 and later the bivalent HPV vaccine, as of 2011, about 120 million doses have been distributed worldwide (1). Since 20...

A 79-year-old woman with a history of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) developed somnolence and tetraparesis after pneumonia. Based on clinical and laboratory findings, she was diagnosed with complications of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). Anti-galactocerebroside (Gal-C) IgG antibodies were detected in her serum. Cases of rec...

Dengue fever is identified as one of the most important mosquito-borne viral disease worldwide. Every year a large number of people belonging to urban populations suffer from this viral infection. Various presentations of dengue fever have been documented, however, neurological complications in dengue fever are relatively uncommon. Among these, Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM) has be...

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is an inflammatory and demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system that is characterized by multifocal involvement of the white matter. Our patient was a 27-year-old female patient who had given birth to a baby with caesarean in another hospital. After four days upon the parturition, she was admitted to our hospital’s general intensive care u...

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is an immune-mediated monophasic inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system which poses a diagnostic challenge. We report on six cases of different etiologies that mimicked the clinical and radiologic findings of ADEM. The cases were collected from four different reference hospitals in Turkey. The same radiologist from the Akden...

INTRODUCTION Post-infectious encephalitis/encephalopathy is a neurological syndrome that sometimes develops following common viral or bacterial infections. The most common form is acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). ADEM is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that typically presents as a monophasic disorder associated with multifocal neurologic symptoms and encephalit...

BACKGROUND Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a rare demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, commonly attributed to infections or vaccinations. Toxic or allergenic compounds can also trigger a response in the immune system and may cause demyelination. We present a case with ADEM after using oral herbal medications. CASE REPORT A 25 year-old male developed bilateral ce...
