Characteristics Of An Adult Photosensitive Cohort, Mubashira Hashmi, Mazhar Mobin, Khurram A Siddiqui
Section of Neurology
Intermittent Photic Stimulation (IPS) is a well recognized provocation maneuver during EEG recording which helps in identifying underlying photosensitivity. The frequency and characteristics of various responses to photosensitivity among our adult patients was determine. EEGs of subjects > or =15 years from 2003-2006, were reviewed. Two main photosensitive responses were observed: Photoparoxysmal (PPR) and Photic-driving response (PDR). Demographic and clinical data was also collected. Out of 5950 EEG's performed, response to IPS were detected in 1.2% (n=73) of EEGs. Out of which 49 (67%) had PDR and 24 (33%) had PPR. Mean age of PPR group was 25.7 +/- 12 years …

Palinopsia From A Posteriorly Placed Glioma - An Insight Into Its Possible Causes, Amad Naseer Khan, Rakesh Sharma, Salema Khalid, David Mckean, Richard Armstrong, Christopher Kennard
Section of Neurology
Palinopsia is a distortion of processing in the visual system in which images persist or recur after the visual stimulus has been removed. It is a dysfunction of the association areas at the junction of temporal, occipital and parietal lobes and can be triggered by any lesion or dysfunction in this region. Here, the authors report the case of a Patient with a glioma involving this region of the brain, who presented with palinopsia that subsequently disappeared once the tumour was surgically debulked. In the few cases of palinopsia that have been published so far, no such case has ever …

Cilostazol Versus Aspirin For Secondary Prevention Of Vascular Events After Stroke Of Arterial Origin, Ayeesha Kamran Kamal, Imama Naqvi, Muhammad R Husain, Bhojo A Khealani
Section of Neurology
Background:Aspirin is widely used for secondary prevention after stroke. Cilostazol has shown promise as an alternative to aspirin in Asian people with stroke. ObjectiveS: To determine the relative effectiveness and safety of cilostazol compared directly with aspirin in the prevention of stroke and other serious vascular events in Patients at high vascular risk for subsequent stroke, those with previous transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or ischaemic stroke of arterial origin. SEARCH STRATEGY: We searched the Cochrane Stroke Group Trials Register (last searched September 2010), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (The Cochrane Library 2009, Issue 4), MEDLINE (1950 …

Predictors Of The Intracerebral Hemorrhage Volume In Hypertensive Patients, Mohammad Wasay, Adnan Yousuf, Darshan Lal, Safia Awan
Predictors Of The Intracerebral Hemorrhage Volume In Hypertensive Patients, Mohammad Wasay, Adnan Yousuf, Darshan Lal, Safia Awan
Section of Neurology
Background: Hemorrhage volume is an important predictor of outcome in Patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). It is not clear why in some Patients ICH volume is larger than in others. Identification of modifiable factors responsible for large-volume hemorrhage in hypertensive Patients may help to reduce ICH-related morbidity and mortality. Objective: The objective of this study was to identify predictors of large-volume ICH in hypertensive Patients. Methods:At a tertiary care center in Karachi (Pakistan), 157 hypertensive Patients with ICH were prospectively analyzed in 2008-2009, and hemorrhage volumes were determined using CT or MRI and various factors, including duration of hypertension, …
