Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is an increasingly recognized disorder, particularly in children. Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) the most common presentation of paediatric MOGAD. Children with ADEM should always be evaluated for MOGAD, as appropriate and timely treatment may help improve long-term outcomes.

The possibility that acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) and epidemic myalgic encephalomyelitis ('epidemic neuromyasthenia') may share a common pathogenesis is examined and many factors common to the two diseases are described. It is suggested that further study of ADEM may help our understanding of epidemic myalgic encephalomyelitis.

It is considered to be an uncommon form of cutaneous vasculi!s occurring in children younger than 2 years old. The clinical picture has a violent onset, a short beni...

Two patients with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis after repeated injection of extracts from several different plants are described. There was no evidence of prior infection or vaccination. Both patients recovered rapidly after treatment with methylprednisolone. Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis should be considered a rare complication of parenteral therapy with herbal extracts.

INTRODUCTION Approximately 5% of cases of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis are preceded by vaccination within 1 month prior to symptom onset. This occurs rarely following influenza immunization. METHODS Case presentation and literature review. RESULTS A 75-year-old woman developed acute disseminated encephalomyelitis within 3 weeks of receiving the seasonal influenza vaccine. The patien...

  Background: Thrombolytic therapy is the only approved treatment for acute cerebral ischemia. The hemorrhagic transformation is the greatest complication of this treatment, which may occur after recanalization of occluded artery. The aim of this study was to determine factors associated with clinical improvement and worsening in patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous th...

myocardial performance, utilizing the isolated canine heart preparation, was studied in two groups: normal control dogs and those subjected to hemorrhagic shock. a marked deterioration in myocardial functional capacity was observed in the shock group. from this study, myocardial incapacity resulting from the period of acute hypotension is felt to be a contributing factor in the death of animals...
