We have commonly observed prominent cerebral veins on susceptibility-weighted angiography (SWAN) in acute meningoencephalitis. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of these findin...
Cerebral veins on SWAN of 98 patients with acute meningoencephalitis diagnosed from February 2016 through October 2020 were classified into three groups according to the degree of venous prominence (m...
As cerebral veins became more prominent, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) glucose level decreased (69.61 ± 29.05 vs. 59.72 ± 22.57 vs. 48.36 ± 20.29 mg/dL, p = .01) and CSF protein level increased (100.73 ± ...
The presence of prominent cerebral veins on SWAN in acute meningoencephalitis was significantly associated with a low CSF glucose level and a high CSF protein level, as well as ICP. Thus, the visual g...
The vein of Rolando, also known as the central sulcal vein, is a critical superficial cerebral vein located in the central sulcus, playing a pivotal role in the venous drainage of the motor and sensor...
Dandy's superior petrosal vein (SPV) anatomy is highly relevant for neurosurgeons. The SPV drains into the superior petrosal sinus (SPS), closely related to the trigeminal and internal auditory pores....
The archived enhanced MRI files of a male patient were studied....
An infratentorial ring-shaped (RS) SPV was found on the petrosal surface of the right cerebellar hemisphere. It was inserted in the SPS above the internal auditory pore, postero-lateral to the trigemi...
Such previously unreported RS-SPV is of utmost importance to be identified before subtemporal transtentorial and retrosigmoid approaches for different neurosurgical reasons....
Cerebral venous thrombosis is a rare condition, with identified and described risk factors mainly associated with prothrombotic states, with a wide variety of symptomatology based on the site affected...
Concepts of multiple sclerosis (MS) biology continue to evolve, with observations such as "progression independent of disease activity" challenging traditional phenotypic categorization. Iron-sensitiv...
The diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) can be challenging in clinical practice because MS presentation can be atypical and mimicked by other diseases. We evaluated the diagnostic performance, alone ...
In this multicenter observational study, we first conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the CVS (proportion of CVS-positive lesions or simplified determination of CVS in 3/6 lesions-Select3*/Select6...
The presence of ≥41% CVS-positive lesions/≥1 CL/≥1 PRL (optimal cutoffs) had 96%/90%/93% specificity, 97%/84%/60% sensitivity, and 0.99/0.90/0.77 area under the curve (AUC), respectively, to distingui...
The combination of CVS, CL, and PRL can improve MS differential diagnosis. CL and PRL also correlated with clinical measures of poor prognosis, with PRL being a predictor of disability accrual indepen...
Our intent was to explore the mediating role of interstitial free water (FW) linking deep medullary vein (DMV) score to white matter hyperintensity (WMH) volume....
Our research team conducted a forward-looking analysis of initial clinical and imaging information gathered from 125 patients with cerebral small vessel disease. We identified six anatomic DMV regions...
DMV score significantly positively correlated with FW value and with WMH volume (p < 0.05), and value of FW positively correlated with WMH volume (p < 0.05). The indirect effect of DMV score on WMH vo...
DMV score correlate with WMH volume by virtue of FW increases in white matter....
BACKGROUND Symptoms caused by developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) are usually mild and unspecific. Despite the benign nature of DVAs, they can occasionally be symptomatic. CASE REPORT A 67-year-old ...
Lumbar puncture (LP) is rarely complicated by cerebral vein thrombosis (CVT), especially if other risk factors coexist. We describe the case of a 28-year-old woman who developed CVT after corticostero...
Thrombosis of dural sinuses and/or cerebral veins (CVT) is an uncommon form of cerebrovascular disease. Malnutrition is common in patients with cerebrovascular disease, and early assessment of malnutr...
Patients with CVT were retrospectively included in this observational study. Multivariate logistic regressions were used to investigate the effects of nutritional indexes on the risk of CID. Subsequen...
A total of 165 patients were included in the final analysis. Approximately 72.7% of CVT patients were regarded as malnourished by our malnutrition screening tools, and malnutrition is associated with ...
We reported that malnutrition, as indicated by PNI, was associated with a higher incidence of CID in CVT patients. Also, we have constructed a nomogram for predicting the risk of CID in these patients...
