摘要:

Acute trichinosis can be followed by a chronic stage. Myalgia is the main clinical symptom in the chronic course of the disease. From 19 patients with a history of acute trichinosis 2–42 years ago, 15 patients suffered from chronic myalgia. Other typical complaints of our patients in the chronic stage were opthalmodynia, burning of the eyes, headache and early fatigabilit

摘要:

The risk of recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction and epilepsy was analyzed in a population-based cohort of 409 stroke patients (mean age 72 years) observed for 3.5–7 years. As assessed by the life table technique, the proportion of survivors in the cohort was 69 ± 5 % at 1 year and 38 ± 7 % at 5 years. During the first year, the risk for recurrent stroke was 14 ± 4%, and the accumulated risk for stroke recurrence at 5 years was 37 ± 10%. The probability for myocardial infarction was estimated to be 7 ± 3 % at 1 year and 19 ± 8 % at 5 years. The risk of recurrent stroke was enhanced in patients of high age and with a history of cardiac failure (p < 0.05), whereas the risk of myocardial infarction was associated with high age, angina pectoris and diabetes mellitus (p < 0.05). The risk of epilepsy was 3 ± 2% at 1 year and 5 ± 4% at 5 years. The considerable risk of recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction and epilepsy adds to the sequelae of the initial cerebrovascular

摘要:

94 subjects, 64 with cerebral ischemia of varying severity and outcome, and 30 controls were studied with technetium-99m hexamethyl propylenamino oxime single photon emission computed tomography in order to evaluate the suitability of this technique in the assessment of cerebral ischemia. Decreased uptake corresponding to the side of clinical symptomatology and/or to CT lesion was found in 93 % of the patients with complete stroke and in 28% of the patients with transient ischemic attack. This procedure can be a useful tool in the routine examination of ischemic patients, although the mechanism underlying brain uptake is far from being completely understood and the possible quantitative evaluation of regional cerebral blood flow is worthy of further assessment.

摘要:

This case report describes the behavior of a patient with a visual agnosia of the associative type, developing to optic agnosia at a later stage. Language, general intelligence and right hemisphere functions were well preserved, but recognition of visually presented objects, colors, faces, words, and complex stimuli was impaired. Agnosia was accompanied by a multimodal amnestic syndrome. CT displayed a focal left hemisphere lesion. The observed pathomorphology is not consistent with a bilateral visuolimbic disconnection syndrome, as suggested from previous case studies. Significant components of visual semantic processing may be executed by the left hemisphere.
