Severe arrhythmia including asystole associated with this encephalitis is rare. Several causes have been suggested. Nevertheless, no report of the literature has described examination by functional brain imaging of a patient with asystole during anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. This case is that of a 34-year-old woman diagnosed as having anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. She repeatedly showed 10-20 s asystole episodes necessitating a temporary transvenous pacemaker. After resection of the bilateral ovarian cystic tumor, her symptoms improved. Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was evaluated using single-photon emission computed tomography. The rCBF was increased in the amygdala, hypothalamus, anterior cingulate, hippocampus, and anterior temporal lobes, but decreased in the dorsolateral frontal lobes, parietal lobes, and occipital lobes. Findings in this case suggest that altered rCBF in the patient with asystole episodes associated with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis was observed in several brain lesions. The rCBF increases in the central autonomic networks, i.e., the amygdala, hypothalamus, and anterior cingulate, might be associated with dysregulation of sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems leading to asystole.</p>","PeriodicalId":49762,"journal":{"name":"Neurocase","volume":" ","pages":"113-116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140860917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our understanding of this phenomena is limited, with unknown occurrence across different reference frames, such as distance (peripersonal vs. extrapersonal) and system of reference (egocentric vs. allocentric). Two patients with acute bilateral (P1) or right hemispheric (P2) stroke, with signs of bottom altitudinal neglect, underwent an extensive evaluation of neglect within 10 days post-stroke. Assessments involved altitudinal neglect and unilateral spatial neglect (USN) in peripersonal space, exploring egocentric and allocentric signs and in extrapersonal space. Compared to a control group of 15 healthy age-matched subjects, patients showed allocentric and egocentric left USN in peripersonal space, and mostly allocentric signs of altitudinal neglect. No signs of neglect were evidenced in extrapersonal space. Altitudinal neglect could thus present as an allocentric form of spatial neglect, suggesting that allocentric representations may not only affect the deployment of attentional resources along horizontal dimensions but also operate along vertical dimensions. Future studies should deepen our understanding of altitudinal neglect, eventually leading to further unravel spatial processes that control attention, their corresponding brain mechanisms, and implications for patients' rehabilitation and functional outcome.</p>","PeriodicalId":49762,"journal":{"name":"Neurocase","volume":" ","pages":"121-131"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139974229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
