Abstract

Background: COVID-19 vaccination has been carried out worldwide, with more than 5 million dose of vaccine delivered. Although declared safe, there are cases of neurological disorders after the Covid 19 vaccination. Cases: In the first case, a 20-year-old male came with decrease level of consciousness, 4 days after receiving the first dose of COVID 19 vaccine with Sinovac vaccine. MRI Brain shows acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). In the second case, a 50-year-old male with seizures and decreased consciousness after recieving first dose of COVID-19 vaccination with Sinovac vaccine, 10 days before admission. Non contrast CT Scan and brain contrast MRI Brain revealed cerebral edema. In the third case, an 18-year-old woman had seizures and decreased consciousness one month after the first dose of COVID 19 vaccination with Sinovac. Contrast Head MRI showing focal leptomeningitis. In the fourth case, a 30-year-old male with slurred speech and right-sided weakness. Three months before admission, he had fever, headache, and tingling of the right limbs a few days after the first dose of COVID 19 vaccination with Sinova MRI Brain Contrast shows ADEM lesion Discussion: The mechanism of neurological disorders concerning COVID 19 vaccination is still unclear. Neurological complications after vaccination weaken the effort of vaccination, but can be used as a precaution and assess prognosis while waiting for further confirmation from large epidemiological studies and meta-analyses. Until now, it is believed that the COVID-19 vaccine has important benefits and is a hope for ending the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Background: Stroke is a leading cause of death in developing countries. The Morse Fall Scale (MFS)'s use in predicting stroke clinical outcomes has not been extensively studied. This study aims to assess MFS's ability to predict neurological recovery in acute ischemic stroke patients within 3 months using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Methods: This prospective cohort study enrolled all individuals with acute ischemic stroke between September and November 2021. Patients' baseline data included their MFS and NIHSS scores, as well as their age, gender, weight, stroke location, and comorbidities. The NIHSS score was reassessed three months later. To identify NIHSS predictors, all baseline data will be analyzed. SPSS 22 was used to analyze the data. The local ethics committee approved the study. Results: Of the 164 patients who met the criteria, only 105 (mean age 59.09 [±11.65], male [58.1%], anterior location [88.6%]) reached the study end point. The average NIHSS score decreased from 9.14 (±1.70) to 6.27 (±1.92). Multiple linear regression showed only the MFS score (p = 0.000) accurately predicted the NIHSS by 0.059 (95% CI: 0.032–0.085, p = 0.000) at the study's conclusion. Discussion: Our investigation revealed that the baseline MFS score accurately predicted neurological improvement in patients who had suffered an ischemic stroke over a three-month period. It is considered that the greater risk of falling results in a delay in the patient's rehabilitation. Investigation with larger sample sizes and longer monitoring intervals are required to corroborate our findings.

Abstract

Introduction: Individuals after Covid-19 infection are suspected to have symptoms of cognitive impairment. Researchers wanted to use the telephone version of MoCA-22 assessment to assess cognitive function. Method: Cross-sectional study at Dr. Moewardi Hospital, Surakarta. Researchers assessed cognitive function telemedicine using Telephone-MoCA 22 and then compared it with the 30-point standard MoCA-INA examination. The analysis is continued on the results of inspection of each component. Results: During 2020-2021 there were 191 Residents who were infected with Covid-19. After screening, 69 people were able to complete the study, of which 34 people with a history of Covid-19 infection (49,2%) and 35 people (50,8%) without a history of Covid-19 infection. The subjects consisted of 34 men (49,2%); 35 women (50,8%); age range 25-33 (±28.97) years; Education grade is 28 juniors, 27 intermediate, and 17 seniors Resident. In the regression test, it was found that effect of Covid-19 history on cognitive function with p-value = 0,94 if using MoCA 30, and p-value = 1,17 if using T-MoCA 22. Comparative test of the two assessments obtained p-value = 0.475. In the analysis of each component obtained less than the maximum value on components of calculation, repetition and delayed memory. Conclusion: In the study, it was found that a history of Covid-19 infection had no effect on cognitive function in research subjects tested using MoCA-INA or Telephone-MoCA. T-MoCA examination has a test value that is not significantly different from the full version of MoCA 30 points.

Abstract

Background: With ever-increasing incidence, young-onset stroke is responsible for significant psychosocial and economic burden, primarily due to post-stroke disability in the productive population. Objective: The aim of our study is to assess the profile and risk factors in young-onset stroke compared to those in older patients. Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study. We included all patients with acute stroke, or transient ischemic attack (TIA) treated at Siloam Lippo Village Hospital between October 2021 and February 2022. An independent t-test was conducted for continuous variables with normal distribution and a Mann-Whitney U test for ordinal or continuous variables with non-normal distribution. Pearson's chi-square test was performed for categorical variables. Results: 153 patients with acute stroke and TIA were included. On univariate analysis comparing young and old-onset strokes, significant differences were found in diagnosis (p=0.039), Bamford classification (p=0.022), NIHSS (p=0.014), history of smoking (p=0.012), previous stroke (p=0.045), history of coronary artery disease (p=0.026), and routine antiplatelet use (p=0.018). Conclusion: We found a predominance of hemorrhagic stroke and TIA in the young-onset group, with more common involvement of the anterior circulation. Older onset was associated with a higher NIHSS score. Modifiable risk factors are more common in young-onset stroke, while non-modifiable risk factors are more common in the older population. However, hypertension remains an equally important risk factor in both groups. Our study provides an overview of the profile and risk factors for young-onset stroke. The information obtained can be useful as educational material for the community to prevent young-onset stroke.

Abstract

Introduction: Septic cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) is a rare thrombosis, but severe, causing damage to all nerves inside the cavernous sinus. The incidence rate of CST is estimated at two to four per million people per year. The symptom usually varies, gradually worsening, making diagnosis harder and potentially making permanent disability. Early detection and prompt treatment are very important to lower the morbidity rate. Case: Tn. M had complained of multiple headaches attacks since 8 months ago before being admitted followed by diplopia. Complaints had worsened 3 months before with the loss of vision in the left eye. MRI showed left thrombosis sinus cavernous. The terrible headache was scaled 8-9 with VAS score. The patient’s left eye was found proptosis palpebra, with anisocoria and mydriasis followed by no direct light reflex also indirect light reflex, visual acuity of the left eye is no light response, whereas the patient’s right eye is normal. On the patient’s left eye was found gaze palsy sinistra. The abnormal blood result was leucocytosis and thrombocytosis. The patient was given fondaparinux once a day with a dose of 6000 units subcutaneously for 5 days. After that, the headache was decreased significantly. The patient underwent 5 tooth extraction done by mouth surgeon after being discharged. The patient was given 20 mg rivaroxaban per day for three weeks, then 10mg per day for three months, and evaluated with MRV again. Conclusion: CST is still very rare but very lethal and makes permanent disability on the patient. Through this case, we demonstrate the potential of tooth infection which leads to septic CST and caused ophthalmoplegia and blindness.
