Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in HIV-1 infection

TL;DR: Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PFLE) is caused by the JC polyomavirus (JCV) and is one of the most feared complications of HIV-1 infection as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-related changes in conventional, magnetization transfer, and diffusion-tensor MR imaging findings: study with whole-brain tissue histogram analysis.

TL;DR: In addition to the extent of T2-weighted MR imaging hyperintense areas and the measurement of NBV, diffusion-tensor MR imaging provides additional in vivo information about microstructural age-related brain tissue changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic significance of JC virus DNA levels in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with HIV-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy.

TL;DR: Measurement of JCV DNA levels in CSF samples may be a useful virological marker for management of PML in patients receiving HAart, and correlated significantly with shorter survival and lower CD4+ cell counts in patients not receiving HAART.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain involvement in systemic immune mediated diseases: magnetic resonance and magnetisation transfer imaging study

TL;DR: Microscopic brain tissue damage is relevant in patients with MS, but, apart from patients with NSLE, it seems to be absent in systemic immune mediated diseases, even in the presence of macroscopic MRI lesions or clinical evidence of CNS involvement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage on the computerized tomography scan obtained at admission: a multicenter assessment of the accuracy of diagnosis and the potential impact on patient outcome

TL;DR: Logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of tSAH and its grading alone do not assume statistical significance in the prediction of unfavorable outcome, and that traumatic SAH is associated with more severe CT findings and a worse patient outcome.
