Reliable incidence rates do not exist due to publication of case reports or cases series [1,2]. A retrospective one-center study finds spinal cord infarction accountable for 1.2% of the total admissions [3]. Etiologies of spinal infarcts include atheromas involving the aorta as the most common cause, usually after a thoraces abdominal aneurysm repair. Other causes of SCI include spinal arteriovenous malformation repair, dissecting aortic aneurysm, cardiac arrest, embolic infarction, syphilitic angiitis, and less common etiologies include collagen disease as systemic lupus or polyarteritis nodosa, pregnancy, sickle cell disease and neurotoxic effects of iodinated contrast material [4]. Syphilitic arteritis was the most frequent cause of SCI until the introduction of penicillin [5]. Neurovascular syndromes of SCI have different symptomatology depending on the level of the infarction and arteries involved, but they usually present with weakness, radicular back pain, are flexia, spin thalamic sensory loss, and autonomic dysfunction.","PeriodicalId":106839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neurology and Stroke","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125181996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, it is known that somatosensory stimulation attenuates ongoing alpha rhythm in centroparietal cortex. Thus, the present work aimed to evaluate alpha rhythm alterations in sensorimotor area and sensations perceived with application of 3 kHz sinusoidal stimulus. Sensory perception threshold (ST) was measured in ten healthy volunteers for posterior stimulation in three distinct stimulus intensities (1.1xST, 2xST and 3xST). Cognitive evaluation of perceived sensations was obtained through questionnaires and cortical alpha rhythm blockade profile was evaluated through the classical event-related synchronization/ desynchronization method. Results showed alpha attenuation in the central cortex bilaterally, in the ipsilateral pre-frontal cortex and contralateral parietal cortex during stimulation. Moreover, there was a tendency of bilateral centroparietal alpha rhythm desynchronization increase with stimulus intensity. In conclusion, sinusoidal electrical stimulation may be useful for disease diagnostics and treatment as well as neurofeedback for brain-machine interface (BMI) applications. Patients may benefit from the novel objective method proposed for assessment of tactile perception, mainly, who might not have their cognition preserved (e.g., stroke).","PeriodicalId":106839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neurology and Stroke","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125856616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Noonan syndrome (NS) and the clinically overlapping disorders and Neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome (NFNS) share the some common clinical features. It is now known that all these disorders are caused by mutations in components of the RAS-MAPK signaling pathway which is important in tumorigenesis. NF1 gene mutations are reported in the majority of these patients. There are some data in the literature about the NF1 mutant allele which can lead to manifestations of Noonan syndrome. We have studied four NFNS cases which all fit the NFNS criteria. We evaluated these patients one with Watson syndrome (WS) and the other one with Rhabdomyosarcoma. Although WS and NFNS were described as distinct disorders, detailed clinical examination of these families revealed that not only pulmonic stenosis, borderline intelligence, and multiple cafe ́-au-lait spots, but also multiple Lisch nodules, neurofibromas in one third of patients, and short stature were present. The only distinction between WS and NFNS would be that NFNS patients show a more classical phenotype of both NS and NF, whereas WS patients show only a mild expression of NF. Recently, there is increasing evidence for WS and NFNS being allelic to NF1 in the majority of patients. We analyzed 4 NFNS patients by PCR based techniques. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples. PCR was performed with intronic primers for all exons of the NF1. DNA samples were sequenced to detect variations in each exon. This study supports that the major gene causing NFNS is NF1. Therefore inclusion of NF1 in the genetic screening of patients with clinically suspected NS, preferentially when café-au-lait spots are present. As a result, the present study provides the molecular evidence of the role of NF1 mutations in NFNS.","PeriodicalId":106839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neurology and Stroke","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115537538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
