However, patients who experience stroke may develop anxiety about their stroke event and may re-experience transient neurological symptoms as a result. A significant portion develop the persistent and disabling symptoms of PTSD.Methods: At the University of South Florida, we conducted a single-center, IRB-approved, observational pilot study of 20 adult patients who were diagnosed with stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) in the previous 31 days to 1 year. Patients completed the post-traumatic stress disorder checklist-5 (PCL-5), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Stroke specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL-12), Modified Rankin Scale of disability (mRS), and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and provided blood and saliva samples.Results: All 20 subjects completed the PCL-5 and 19 subjects completed the follow up scales. Seven patients (35%) were found to have Post-Stroke Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PS-PTSD). Higher PCL-5 scores were significantly correlated with lower SS-QOL scores indicating worse quality of life (r = -0.709, P = .001) and higher PHQ-9 scores representing symptoms of depression (r = 0.727, P < 0.001).Conclusion: Post-Stroke Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PS-PTSD) is prevalent after stroke and TIA with patients experiencing concurrent depressive symptoms, correlating with a worsened quality of life.","PeriodicalId":46355,"journal":{"name":"Neurohospitalist","volume":" ","pages":"19418744251315201"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11736721/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143013721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The evaluation of this finding carries a broad initial differential diagnosis and must account for any relevant medical history. We describe the case of a 41-year-old male with known retinal vasculopathy with cerebral leukoencephalopathy and systemic manifestations (RVCL-S) who presented with progressive mental status decline and acute onset intractable headache. Head computed tomography (CT) revealed extensive vasogenic edema, resulting in right to left shift of 11 millimeters at the level of the lateral ventricles, with associated uncal and subfalcine herniation. He was treated with a 5-day course of methylprednisolone, leading to resolution of his lethargy and headache. Follow up neuroimaging with magnetic resonance (MRI) brain demonstrated interval improvement with the midline shift reduced to 3 millimeters after completion of high dose corticosteroids. Neurosurgical intervention was considered, but ultimately not required given his improvement. This case describes the management of life-threatening cerebral edema as a complication of RVCL-S disease progression. Due to the rarity of this disease, there are no standardized guidelines for treatment and the care for such patients relies on expert opinion, case studies, and extrapolation of principles learned from related conditions. Our intention is that the reporting of this case will contribute to the limited body of literature and aid those affected by this condition.","PeriodicalId":46355,"journal":{"name":"Neurohospitalist","volume":" ","pages":"19418744241310473"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11662338/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142878276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, documentation and coding are rarely integrated into medical education curricula and there is a lack of standard neurology curriculum on this topic. We developed and evaluated a teaching session on clinical documentation for neurology resident physicians.Methods: The education consisted of a didactic session designed by a neurologist with content about risk-adjusted mortality, clinical documentation integrity (CDI), impact of documentation on patients, and neurology-specific documentation guidance. A pre-post survey design was used to compare baseline and post-intervention self-reported knowledge and attitudes.Results: 61 responses were collected (37 pre- and 24 post-intervention). Residents had increased understanding of the impact of documentation on quality metrics (P = 0.004), risk-adjusted mortality (P < 0.0001), and impact on patients (P = 0.02). Attitude towards CDI education improved significantly (P = 0.0016), as well as agreement that CDI is important to resident physicians (P = 0.003). The portion of residents who agreed training on CDI is useful and valuable increased significantly (P = 0.004). 92% agreed this curriculum was useful, and 96% agreed they understood the role of CDI better after the session.Conclusions: In this study of a teaching session for neurology residents on clinical documentation, we found this format of teaching was well-received and highly effective in improving resident attitudes and self-reported knowledge.","PeriodicalId":46355,"journal":{"name":"Neurohospitalist","volume":" ","pages":"19418744241307685"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11638927/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142830384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In magnetic resonance imaging, nearly all brain metastases exhibit contrast-enhancement, which may be affected by the time elapsed since the administration of the contrast agent. We discuss a case where the brain metastases in a patient with prostate cancer do not show a clear contrast-enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging using a standard brain metastases protocol. It also emphasizes the usefulness of delayed imaging in identifying blood-brain barrier damage. We present the case of a 69-year-old man diagnosed with prostate adenocarcinoma, currently in castration-resistant phase (last value of serum prostate-specific antigen: 45.1 ng/mL) with bone, mediastinal and inguinal lymph nodes, pulmonary, and hepatic metastases. In a contrast-enhanced whole-body computed tomography examination, the appearance of intra-axial brain lesions suspicious for metastases was documented. The subsequent contrast-enhanced brain magnetic resonance imaging showed the presence of 5 intra-axial lesions consistent with brain metastases. These lesions exhibited hyperintense signals in T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images; after contrast agent administration, a ring-like contrast-enhancement was more clearly visible in T1-weighted images acquired later (about 15 minutes after contrast agent administration) than in those acquired earlier (about 5-7 minutes after contrast agent administration). In conclusion, for oncological subjects with multiple brain lesions lacking obvious contrast-enhancement using a standard magnetic resonance imaging protocol, we suggest acquiring late images. These might allow for the detection of even minimal post-contrast impregnation, improving confidence in the diagnosis of brain metastases.","PeriodicalId":46355,"journal":{"name":"Neurohospitalist","volume":" ","pages":"19418744241303538"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11590085/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142740930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Complications include both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, for which there is no curative treatment for MMD. Early diagnosis with surgical intervention is vital for there is no definitive treatment. Due to the bimodal age distribution, moyamoya should be considered for patients presenting with stroke and supraclinoid ICA vasculopathy.Case: We present a case of a 23-year-old female who presented with left arm weakness and sudden onset thunderclap headache. Upon further questioning, it was revealed that the patient had started an estrogen-containing birth control two weeks prior to presentation. Neuroimaging at our tertiary care center demonstrated simultaneous ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes in the bilateral hemispheres associated with vasculopathy seen in both invasive and noninvasive cerebrovascular imaging. She was diagnosed with idiopathic moyamoya disease since her serum and cerebrospinal fluid studies did not reveal any obvious precipitators to suggest moyamoya syndrome (MMS).Conclusion: There were no obvious precipitating factors identified in the extensive workup for this patient. Therefore, further secondary prevention is difficult for this otherwise young and healthy individual. While there is data to support the use of antiplatelet medications for the prevention of ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial atherosclerotic disease, there are no clear guidelines for the treatment of MMD that simultaneously causes ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Further research on the pathophysiology and treatment modalities for MMD are needed to guide clinicians in treating this complex disease.","PeriodicalId":46355,"journal":{"name":"Neurohospitalist","volume":" ","pages":"19418744241299068"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11583165/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142711040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
