Abstract:
Abstract The purpose of this study is to present a diagnostic tool to assess the nonverbal pragmatic behaviors of people with Asperger syndrome, with the intent to give an account of the severity of symptoms in the area of nonverbal interaction, as well as providing a profile of nonverbal behaviors that may be targeted for intervention. Through this communication profile, overall nonverbal ability is calculated in a group of 20 subjects with Asperger syndrome. The proposed scale also includes the measurement of the following nonverbal dimensions: (1) eye gaze, (2) facial expression, (3) body language and posture, (4) proxemics, (5) gestures, and (6) paralanguage. The results of this assessment suggest low nonverbal pragmatic ability in these subjects, show specific deficits in nonverbal communication, and capture variability in nonverbal behavior in individuals with AS.

Abstract:
BackgroundA subgroup of persons with anorexia nervosa (AN) have been proposed to have sociocommunicative problems corresponding to autism spectrum disorders [ASDs, i.e. DSM-IV pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs): autistic disorder, Asperger's disorder, PDD not otherwise specified (NOS)]. Here, clinical problems, personality traits, cognitive test results and outcome are compared across 16 subjects (32%) with teenage-onset AN who meet or have met ASD criteria (AN+ASD), 34 ASD-negative AN subjects and matched controls from a longitudinal Swedish study including four waves of independent assessments from the teens to the early thirties.MethodThe fourth wave included the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (SCID)-I and the SCID-II (cluster C, i.e. ‘anxious’ PDs) interviews, the Asperger Syndrome Diagnostic Interview, self-assessments by the Autism Spectrum Quotient and the Temperament and Character Inventory, neurocognitive tests by subscales from the Wechsler scales, continuous performance tests, Tower of London, and Happé's cartoons.ResultsThe ASD assessments had substantial inter-rater reliability over time (Cohen's κ between 0.70 and 0.80 with previous assessments), even if only six subjects had been assigned a diagnosis of an ASD in all four waves of the study, including retrospective assessments of pre-AN neurodevelopmental problems. The AN+ASD group had the highest prevalence of personality disorders and the lowest Morgan–Russell scores. The non-ASD AN group also differed significantly from controls on personality traits related to poor interpersonal functioning and on neurocognitive tests.ConclusionsA subgroup of subjects with AN meet criteria for ASDs. They may represent the extreme of neurocognitive and personality problems to be found more generally in AN.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Accumulating evidence for the co-occurrence Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizotypal personality disorder (SPD) at both the diagnostic and symptom/trait levels raises important questions about the nature of their association and the effect of their co-occurrence on the individual’s phenotype and functional outcome. It has been recommend that informing etiological and phenotypic overlaps between ASD and schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSD) would require the utilization of a dual-diagnosis cohort compared with two control groups, each singly diagnosed with ASD or SSD, and that the development of a multidimensional model for understanding the relationship between these two spectra would require cohorts to be described not solely by diagnosis, but also by using dimensional measures that cut across diagnostic boundaries. Research comparing adults with ASD and SPD, as well as the impact of their co-occurrence on outcomes is extremely limited. To fill in this gap, we investigated executive functioning in terms of response inhibition and sustained attention, candidate endophenotypes of both conditions, in adults with ASD, SPD, comorbid ASD and SPD, and neurotypical adults using both categorical and dimensional approaches. Methods A total of 88 adults (Mean Age ± SD = 37.54 ± 10.17): ASD (n = 26; m/f = 20/6); SPD (n = 20; m/f = 14/6); comorbid ASD and SPD (n=9; m/f =6/3) and neurotypicals (n=33; m/f =23/10) completed the Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART) in both its fixed and random forms. Individuals with ASD had a DSM-IV diagnosis of either autism or Asperger Syndrome and met ASD cut-offs on the Autism Diagnostic Observational Schedule-Generic (ADOS-G). All individuals with SPD met DSM-IV criteria for SPD using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis II Disorders (SCID-II). Individuals in the comorbid group met criteria for both ASD (determined by DSM-IV and the ADOS) and SPD (determined by the SCID-II). In addition, in both the clinical and healthy participants, positive and autistic symptom severity were assessed with the positive subscale of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSSpos) and the PANSS Autism Severity Score (PAUSS), respectively. Results Controlling for full scale IQ, working memory and medication dosage, group analyses revealed that the comorbid group committed fewer omission errors than the ASD group on the fixed SART, and fewer omission errors than the ASD and SPD groups on the random SART. The individual difference analyses revealed that the PANSSpos and PAUSS interactively reduced omission errors in both the fixed and random SARTs, as well as increased d’ scores, indicative of improved overall performance. Discussion Concurrent elevated levels of autistic and positive psychotic symptoms seem to be associated with improved sustained attention abilities. We propose that sustaining and switching attention may represent two poles of irregularities across the autism and schizotypal spectra, which appear to converge in a compensatory manner in the comorbid group. Our findings highlight the importance of investigating the concurrent effect of ASD and SPD at both the symptom and diagnostic levels, and the potential benefit of this research approach to understanding the underlying mechanisms of seemingly overlapping phenotypes.

Abstract:
Objectives/AimsAutism is a neurodevelopmental condition characterised by differences in sensory processing, social communication and restricted/repetitive behaviors. Joint hypermobility is a common connective tissue variant, reportedly overrepresented in Autism. Alexithymia is a personality construct characterised by altered emotional awareness which has notably high rates of overlap with autism spectrum disorder. This study tested whether hypermobility was associated with autistic traits and examined alexithymia as a mediator of this association.MethodForty-two people underwent eligibility assessment for a study of joint hypermobility and anxiety (ISRCTN17018615). Hypermobility was assessed using both the Brighton Criteria for Joint Hypermobilty Syndrome (JHS) and 2017 Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) Criteria. Participants completed the Ritvo Autism Asperger Diagnostic Scale-Revised (RAADS R: sensory/motor, language, social relatedness and circumscribed interest domains) to quantify autistic traits. No participant had a prior diagnosis of Autism. Participants also completed the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) to measure alexithymia. The TAS-20 has three domains: difficulty describing feelings, difficulty identifying feelings and externally oriented thinking.ResultsAll 42 participants met criteria for JHS, 26 participants also met criteria for hEDS. Strikingly, 22/42 (52.4%) scored above threshold for suspected Autism (26/42 in the sensory/motor domain; 22/42 in language domain; 22/42 in social relatedness domain; 17/42 in circumscribed interests domain). There were no significant differences in RAADS-R scores depending on hypermobility diagnosis. The number of connective tissue features (hEDS Criterion 2A) correlated with RAADS-R sensory/motor score (r = 0.418, p = 0.006) but not social relatedness nor circumscribed interests sub-scores. Full mediation of the relationship between the number of connective tissue features and RAADs sensory/motor score by TAS-20 externally oriented thinking was found using the method of Baron-Kenny (1986) and estimation of indirect effects (Hayes, 2018; bootstrapped confidence intervals (n = 5000, do not cross zero)). Difficulty identifying feelings and difficulty describing feelings domains did not mediate this relationship.ConclusionThese results add to evidence linking variant connective tissue to neurodevelopmental conditions (including Autism) and interestingly, specifically to sensory processing differences. Our study provides a strong rationale for screening for neurodevelopmental conditions in people with hypermobility and motivates further to understand symptom expression in this group. Our results also provide an insight into the processes underlying this relationship, which maybe important for informing interventions for people with hypermobility and autistic traits.

Abstract:
This review describes the current situation with regard to diagnostic instruments for Asperger syndrome. The paucity of such instruments, and the lack of adequate standardisation data amongst the few that do exist, represent a serious omission for both clinicians and researchers. The major problem limiting the development of effective diagnostic or screening instruments is the confusion inherent in ICD-10 and DSM-1V systems in differentiating autism from Asperger syndrome. In the absence of clear and clinically satisfactory diagnostic criteria, efforts to develop valid assessment instruments may be attempting to put the horse before the cart!

Abstract:
Winnicott’s (1968, 1993) play technique squiggling was piloted as a measure of creative thinking abilities and a potential diagnostic aid in the assessment of Asperger syndrome. The internal consistency and inter-rater reliability of squiggling was found to be acceptable. Mixed results were found between the six subscales in terms of concurrent validity with the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TTCT: Torrance, Bal & Safter, 2008). Squiggling subscales Elaboration and Imagination showed signs of psychometric strength. However, Fluency and Originality require revision. Concurrent validity of the subscales Flexibility and Integration were not established. A matched-participants design enabled testing of hypothesised differences in creative thinking abilities with children with Asperger syndrome using the TTCT (Torrance et al., 2008): Abstractedness, Fluency, Originality, Integration, Elaboration, Resistance to Premature Foreclosure and Flexibility. Children with Asperger syndrome demonstrated a significantly higher level of elaboration and abstract imagination in their drawings relative to a comparison group of typically-developing children matched on age, visual motor integration ability and non-verbal IQ. Findings indicate partial support for the Weak Central Coherence Theory (Shah and Frith, 1983) and Leslie’s (1987) Meta-Representational Deficit hypothesis. Children with Asperger syndrome demonstrated understanding and expression of abstract concepts as graphical representations, thereby supporting their use in clinical assessments and interventions. No support was found for the Executive Dysfunction Theory (Pennington & Ozonoff, 1996) or for the Hyper-Systemising Theory (Baron-Cohen, 2006). Some limitations include the heterogeneity of the clinical group, and the possible confounding effects of verbal intellectual abilities, extrinsic rewards and performance anxiety. Major strengths of the study include a successful matching procedure and the finding of group differences with large effect sizes on particular creative thinking abilities.

Abstract:
Volume I: This comprises an empirical research article, a literature review and a public domain briefing paper which summarizes the empirical research and literature review. Literature Review: The literature review summarizes recent research around the neuropsychological similarities and differences between individuals given the diagnostic label of Asperger Syndrome and those given the diagnostic label of Schizophrenia. Similarities in social relationships and emotional processing are identified with subtle differences in areas such as deception ability and IQ subtest scores. The overlap in these groups provides evidence for the utility of a formulation based approach to understanding individual differences and developing an intervention. Empirical research: The empirical research considers the subjective experiences of young people with Asperger Syndrome when they transition from primary to secondary school. It uses a qualitative approach to this question, and identifies themes in individual experience including understanding of peers, development of a sense of self, the school environment and coping strategies. Implications for future research and support within school are considered. Volume II: This volume details five clinical practice reports written during work in a range of different clinical settings. These provide details of the assessment, formulation, intervention and evaluation carried out with five individuals of a range of ages and abilities.

The main target of this study is to identify the scales in MMPI-2 which could help the differential diagnostic process between Asperger's syndrome and schizophrenia. Adult persons with Asperger's syndrome and adult persons with schizophrenia were examined. The study has a quantitative character, concretely data mining, which offers generating and verifying hypothesis. The results show that configuration of heights of specific scales can be crucial in distinguishing between Asperger's syndrome and schizophrenia. In the concrete we expect increase in 0Si, Sc1, Pa2 and OBS along with medial T-scores in Sc6, Pa1, Psyc and Biz in protocols of people with Asperger's syndrome. People with schizophrenia have increased T-scores in Sc6, Pa1, Psyc and Biz. KEY WORDS  Asperger's syndrome  Schizophrenia  Differential diagnostic  Adulthood  MMPI-2

Abstract:
The goal of this diploma thesis is to map the issue of social integration of students with Asperger syndrome into a regular class of elementary school. The theoretical part is based on analysis of publications related to the topic. It deals with the description of the Asperger syndrome diagnosis and its symptoms, the concept of integration, mainly the integration of a student with Asperger syndrome, and the issue of classroom climate and the possibilities of its diagnostics and development. The practical part is based on the theoretical part. In it, the author focuses on the analysis of social status of integrated students with Asperger syndrome. Sociometrical techniques are combined with projective method and both are supplemented with a questionnaire for teachers and qualitative methods, primarily interviews with teachers and observation in class.

Abstract:
Abstract The Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) is a screening instrument that can be used from 4 years of age through to adulthood. It measures how many autistic traits an individual shows, and can be used right across the population, not just in clinics. The AQ has been tested in terms of its clinical validity. The AQ still needs to be evaluated for its utililty as a population screen. This will entail evaluating what proportion of cases in a population the instrument correctly detects., There are related versions for children (the Child AQ) or teenagers (the Adolescent AQ). There is also a toddler version, the Q-CHAT (Quantitative Checklist for Autism in Todlers). [These are all freely available as downloadable files at ], If you are a parent or a professional and are concerned about whether a particular child or adult might have an autism spectrum condition (ASC), the AQ can be a quick, useful indicator to determine if a full diagnostic assessment is warranted. Adults who are high-functioning and who suspect they might have ASC can also fill in the AQ themselves, for the same purpose.

Abstract:
Abstract To date, it is questionable whether the diagnostic criteria for Asperger syndrome (AS) as stated by ICD-10 or DSM-IV still reflect Asperger’s original account of ‘autistic psychopathy’ (AP) from the 1940s. The present study examined 74 clinical case records of children with AP diagnosed by Hans Asperger and his team at the Viennese Children’s Clinic and Asperger’s private practice between 1950 and 1986. The characteristic features of the children are outlined, including reasons for referral, parental background, behavioural problems, cognitive functioning, communication and interests. Results show that the patients of Asperger described in our study represent a subgroup of children with very high intellectual functioning, specific circumscribed interests and talents but impaired social, communication and motor skills. Sixty-eight percent of the sample met ICD-10 criteria for AS, while 25% fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for autism. Implications for the diagnosis of AS are discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract Leo Kanner first described autism in 1943 as a rare condition featuring lack of emotional contact and resistance to change. In 1944 Hans Asperger identified a group of children with problems in the same areas. Later work on diagnostic criteria has placed autism among the developmental disorders as a pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) (DSM-IV, ICD-10, WHO). Epidemiological studies have documented a span of signs and symptoms as an autistic spectrum. In autism, there is a pattern of impairments in three areas: (1) qualitatively impaired reciprocal social interaction and (2) communication and (3) restricted, repetitive, and stereotyped interests and behavior. Idiosyncratic reactions to sensory information are not included in the diagnostic criteria but are often important symptoms; they are reported by many persons who have autism. The DSM-IV diagnostic criteria for autistic disorder are listed in Table 13–1 (they are the same criteria as for childhood autism in ICD-10). The term Asperger syndrome is most often used to describe children with autistic spectrum problems and a normal or near-normal cognitive level, but there is not complete agreement about these criteria among researchers. Pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified (PDD NOS) is a diagnostic term without clear definition. It may be used for persons who do not fulfill the criteria for autistic disorder but have obvious problems in the development of reciprocal social interaction and some problems in one or both of the other two domains (about the same as in atypical autism in ICD-10). In the autistic spectrum and in each diagnostic subgroup, there is a continuum from mild impairment to severe developmental disorder.

Abstract:
Autism spectrum disorder is a common neurodevelopmental disorder with onset during early life but with life-long implications for the affected person. The term is now broader and all-inclusive and represents the whole spectrum of disorders previously classified under autism and related disorders such as Asperger syndrome. Incidence of autism spectrum disorder appears to be rising, related in part to increase in awareness and recognition by the parents and the healthcare providers. Autism spectrum disorder is most often diagnosed using DSM-V criteria. These diagnostic criteria include persistent deficits in social communication/social interaction and restricted, repetitive patterns of behaviour, interests, or activities. Treatment requires a multidisciplinary team incorporating pediatricians, therapists, social workers, special education teachers, etc. to optimize the outcomes. A case study is presented to highlight the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of autism spectrum disorder.

Abstract:
Autism can have many meanings, many combinations. No professional can even have this diagnosis for the first time and know what the child's response will be in the future. But there is a period when counselling or assessment takes place, only after that it can be known what the present situation of the child is. According to the new classification, this disorder is also called Autism Spectrum Disorder. The spectrum is taken in Rainbow term, and it is said that autism is sometimes very severe on one side and sometimes very mild on the other side. Many times, many types of combinations are also found with autism. In which ASD reduces the ability of intelligence, some may suffer epileptic seizures. In some cases, other types of medical problems may also occur. And if there is no problem in any of these and there is mild ASD and IQ level is normal or above normal then life can be almost normal. Autism is not a disease. Being diagnosed with autism does not mean that these children will not be able to do any type of work or job in future or those children cannot get involved in any further work. They can do all the work; the only difference is that they can do it in a slightly different way from other children. Their ability to understand all the things and do it in their own ways. Sometimes they react seriously to very small incidents and sometimes even big incidents do not affect them. Earlier, autism was also called autistic disorder, red Syndrome and also called Asperger’s Childhood distinguishing Syndrome. Combination of all these, now it has been named “Autism Spectrum Disorder” If we understand Autism Spectrum Disorder in simple language, then they lack social understanding. Most of these children are Remain fixed on only one thing. If we talk about social understanding, it can be understood in two ways: Going to school, studying, writing and giving exams and being up to the marks in exams. If you look at it from the other side, you go out, meet people, look them in the eyes and talk, you can make them understand what you say, how to read their facial expressions and how to make friendship with them, all these things come under social intelligence, which is lacking in autistic children. Children who are found to have problems with autism speak some things, but as they move on, they forget that language. Seeing this situation, parents get worried and go to the doctors, child specialist, psychiatrist, psychologist, neurologist, and sometimes they take the name of God. Overall, parents do whatever they can for their children, their efforts are to ensure that their children become normal by whatever means, sometimes parents also misunderstand that they gave less time to their children in childhood, which is why If their child is lacking in literacy because of this, then it is very important to clarify that it is not the parents’ fault. It is genetic and the study shows that 8 out of 10,000 children have this problem, which starts before the age of 3 years and can persist throughout life. The study shows that in such children, this problem can be treated with assessments and therapies but sometimes it persists for life. Symptoms of autism are found in these children, they may be good at some specific skills, but it has also been observed that those children forget those skills as they grow older and new skills appear in them. They also keep repeating their activities. They may have their own unique ways of understanding, learning, moving around or paying attention to instructions. They especially have communication problems. They seem to be very narrow interest. For example, Sometimes the sound of a clock ticking. They listen to it very attentively and sometimes hear a huge bang. And sometimes even the loud sound of the bang is ignored. When the parents notice all these symptoms, they wonder whether it is the case that they are unable to hear. Thinking so, they even take them to an ENT doctor, to check their hearing. Tests are also done which are often found to be normal. Apart from this, if we see, sometimes children have abnormal things like hand flapping, Toe walking, odd playing with their own way etc. Apart from this, pronoun reversal like not understanding the difference between you and me, yours and mine, poor eye contact, lack of emotions. It is not that they want to go only to their parents or family members, they go to anyone and talks to anyone. Most such children live in imagination. ASD begin before age of 3 years as received literature and may be last throughout life. Study shows its symptoms may improve overtime sometime its symptoms in children show ASD within one year and in other hand its symptoms cannot be seen throughout life. Some children with ASD may be good in some specific skills and we can see that development during 18 to 24 months of their age. But after that they stop gaining or even loss skills which they gained earlier. Children with ASD may have problem with social interaction and communication. They stick towards restricted behaviour and do their activities repetitively. They may have loss Interest, in other word children with ASD have their different ways of learning, moving, or paying attention in instructions. The role of a mother is very important for their children’s life, and it is also very much important in their growth and development. No mother wants to see their children in trouble and when their children are diagnosed with autism disorder, they feel stressed. It becomes natural to have stress, tension, depression, anxiety and different types of negative thoughts in them. As it was further told that autism is genetic, and it happens to those who are destined to have it. So, in such a situation, it has been told to such mothers how to get out of through rajyoga meditation. In the study, 10 such mothers were taken for experiment whose children had some kind of autism symptoms and who had become completely hopeless. And they started believing that their children would never improve and that the mothers themselves were responsible for their condition. They believed that their children suffering due to not taking proper care of them in their childhood and not giving them sufficient time, that is why these conditions have been happened and they also started believing that it is the result of her actions that her children are suffering which is now never going to be cured. General health questionnaire was used to know all 10 mother’s mental health conditions. Personal meetings were conducted, telephonic talks were also done. To bring the mothers out of their mental condition, their perception of autism and indifference towards life, they were given the practice of rajyoga meditation for 30 days. This study deals with stress tension depression anxiety and negative and positive behaviour and coping situation with practicing rajyoga. Study shows that how rajyoga helped mothers having negative attitude and behaviours towards their children who are facing autistic spectrum disorder and it was found that how lower level of confidence and higher level of negativity affects children's development who facing autistic spectrum disorder. 10 mothers dealing with ASD children were taken for study and examine using parent attitude scale and general health questionnaire. Accepting ADS Child’s limitations is very much important for their confidence and development. When parents dealing with their children’s conditions. To know that they are accepted and loved for as they are. This accepts their uniqueness and capabilities even if they are not like other children. Every child increases their confidence and self-stream when they do something good in their life.

Abstract:
ICD-10 (The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioral Disorders. Clinical description and diagnostic guidelines) Introduction. Cotard syndrome is a neuropsychiatric pathology that is uncommon in medical practice but has a significant impact on public awareness of the importance of mental health. This mental disorder is also known as negation delirium, living dead syndrome, nihilistic delirium, or walking corpse syndrome. Objectives. A clinical case of a patient diagnosed with dementia due to late-onset Alzheimer's disease is presented; dementia also includes symptoms of Cotard's syndrome. Over time, the transmission of knowledge and data about Cotard Syndrome, despite its very low frequency, has become a pathology that intrigues and inspires curiosity among individuals. Consciousness of the existence of this delirious illness and the accurate definition of the symptoms of a dual diagnosis are required in a number of psychiatric pathologies. Method. This document was created using the "Elisabeta Doamna" psychiatry hospital Database from Galati, Romania, where patient data was acquired and admitted to the Psychiatry Clinic Section II. In addition, a variety of bibliographical references and diagnostic criteria were utilized, including the ICD-10 (the Classification of Mental and Behavioral Disorders, Clinical Description, and Diagnostic Guidelines), the DSM-5 (the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders), and the psychometric tests: the MMSE (the Mini Mental Status Test) and the GAFS (the Global Functioning Assessment Scale). Results and Conclusions Despite having no psychiatric history, the patient arrived at the psychiatric hospital after experiencing psychiatric symptoms caused by both Alzheimer's disease and Cotard's syndrome, symptoms that were ignored and gradually deteriorated, resulting in full-blown delirium, rapid dementia degradation, and a not-very-favorable outlook.

Abstract:
Context: Déjérine-Roussy Syndrome is a rare entity that occurs after an ischemia located in the ventral posterolateral nucleus, and it is characterized by hemiplegia, superficial hemianesthesia, mild hemiataxia and astereognosis, pain on the paretic side and choreoathetosis movements. This unusual condition can be caused by haemorrhage or neoplasm. Thalamic tumors make up less than 5% of all intracranial tumors. The rare clinical presentation of a thalamic tumor is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for neurology and neurosurgery practice and generally requires treatment without biopsy. Case report: A 54-years-old man presented complaining of burning and tingling paraesthesias, decreased sensitivity in left dimidium, associated with decreased visual acuity in the left eye. Physical examination showed complete left hemiparesis provided grade 4-, normoreflexia with athetoid movements of the left arm and hand, painful, thermal hemihipoesthesia and epicritic touch, allodyne in the left hemibody, pressure sensitivity present globally, visual campimetry by confrontation with heteronymous hemianopia without changes in the cranial nerves. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Skull Base showed an oval mass, with hyposignal in T1 and hypersignal in T2 and FLAIR, with peripheral contrast uptake in the thalamus and nuclei from the right base. The patient showed good clinical-surgical evolution after surgery with Glasgow Outcome Scale 4 and modified Rankin scale 2. Anatomical Pathology confirmed low-grade glioma. Conclusions: Early diagnosis and immediate therapy can delay a fatal outcome or decrease treatment-related morbidity.

Abstract:
Introduction: Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome (RCVS) is a rare condition of secondary headache to reversible multifocal narrowing of cerebral arteries, coursing with recurrent thunderclap-like pain, associated or not with focal neurological deficits and seizures. The mechanism is unknown, but an abnormality in control of cerebrovascular tonus triggered by a vasoconstrictor trigger is suggested. Diagnostic criteria is based on RCVS2, with high diagnostic accuracy. The aim is to report an unusual trigger cause for SVCR in a woman admitted in ER at Hospital Geral de Cuiabá. Case: CMP, 43-year-old, admitted at the cardiology ER, with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) due to asymmetric septal hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, referring after 2 sequential shocks of ICD, started a sudden, intense holocranial headache, worst in her life, associated to nausea and vomiting, without focal neurological deficits. Brain computed tomography and angiotomography of cranial vessels was performed, showing a thin layer of cortical subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in right postcentral gyrus region, without aneurysmal dilations or others. Opioid analgesia was performed and Nimodipine was started as prophylaxis for cerebral vasospasm. On next day, presented a new episode of pain with the same characteristics, a new neuroimaging was acquired, maintaining the characteristics described. A skull arterial magnetic resonance angiography was requested for a better evaluation, however, because of ICD, it was unable to perform. RCVS2 was calculated, totaling 10 points, with high accuracy, diagnosing the pathology. Event prophylaxis initiated with Verapamil and Amitriptyline to pain and mood control and, during hospitalization, presented just one new episode of pain after measurements until telemetry is performed. Conclusion: SVCR is a rare entity and must be readily differentiated from malignant causes, such as aneurysmal SAH or others. Due to the recurrence of pain associated with the potential trigger and exclusion of other causes, diagnosis was established. RVCS2 scale was essential for the outcome in question. It´s being followed up at the headache and arrhythmology ambulatory, with a new imaging exam in three months, described in literature to verifying the reversal of initial findings.

Abstract:
The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the Severe Acute Respira-tory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) became a challenge globally by affecting mil-lions of people worldwide. Lung injury is the main outcome of COVID-19 infection; how-ever, damage can occur in other organs including the liver. Currently, limited data is available that link underlying liver injury with the severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study aimed to investigate the changes in levels of liver enzymes in COVID-19 patients. We con-ducted a retrospective analysis of the medical reports of 90 admitted patients with confirmed COVID-19 in the Infectious Disease, AIDS and Clinical Immunology Research Centre, Georgia from march 2020 till August 2020. The study showed that among 90 pa-tients with COVID-19, 24.4% (n=22) had abnormally elevated levels of liver enzymes. The presence of abnormal liver tests became more pronounced during hospitalization within 2 weeks, with 18.8% (n=17) patients having elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, and 12.2% (n=11) patients having elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels. Con-siderably raised levels of liver enzymes were observed in 17.8% (n=16) older males. The hepatitis C virus antibody test and hepatitis B virus antigen test were performed in all pa-tients and only two patients were detected with positive result of hepatitis C and hepatitis B tests. Our study indicates that patients with abnormal liver tests were at higher risk of progressing to severe COVID-19. Large-scale clinical studies are needed in the future to identify the causes of liver injury in patients with COVID-19 infection. Keywords: COVID-19, Liver enzymes, ALT (alanine aminotransferase), AST (aspartate aminotransferase), Ag(antigen), Ab(antibody).

Abstract:
Background: Neuromuscular involvement has been identified in acute and early stages of severe COVID-19. Guillain-Barre syndrome and variants, rhabdomyolysis and prone position-related neuropathy represent early complications. Mononeuritis multiplex is rarely a post-infectious complication. Objectives: Characterization of patients with mononeuritis multiplex after severe COVID-19. Methods, design and setting: We performed a retrospective observational study of clinical, laboratorial and neurophysiological aspects of nine Brazilian patients with mononeuritis multiplex after severe COVID-19 at the Division of Neuromuscular Diseases, Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP), São Paulo, Brazil. Results: Nine patients (4 male, 5 female) had mean age at diagnosis of 60.6 years. 78% had at least one risk factor for severe COVID-19. Dyspnea, cough, fever, headache, anosmia, odynophagia, and myalgia were the most common SARS-CoV-2 symptoms. Most patients had large length of stay in intensive care (35.8 days), with orotracheal intubation and the need of prone positioning and tracheostomy. 44% had venous or arterial thromboembolic complications. Mononeuritis multiplex symptoms started after 45.7 days (23-71) of first COVID-19 symptoms. Sensorimotor multifocal axonal mononeuritis multiplex was the most common pattern (78%) with moderate to severe (89%) and lower limb-dominant compromise (67%). 33% with LANSS pain scale >12 and 67% with high fatigue scores on Fatigue Severity Scale. Two patients developed moderate titles of positive antinuclear antibody for nuclear membrane compounds (titin) during diagnostic work-up. Three patients were treated with oral corticosteroids with moderate disease control. Conclusions: Mononeuritis multiplex may be a late neuromuscular complication after severe COVID-19. Vasculitis and endotheliopathy seem to mediate its pathophysiology.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The patients should meet the internationally recognized diagnostic criteria for myasthenia gravis and be definitely diagnosed as myasthenia gravis, excluding MG patients caused by congenital, drug and other factors, as well as patients with serious primary diseases, autoimmune diseases or mental diseases. Patients are not restricted by race, region, gender, age, background, course of disease and other factors. We will focus on trials using vitamin D as an intervention at any dose and in any regimen (eg daily/weekly/monthly intake). The control group was routinely given western medicine, including cholinesterase inhibitors, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, alone or in combination, or placebo. The intervention group was treated with vitamin D on the basis of western medicine treatment in the control group. The specific dosage form and dose were not limited, and the shortest course of treatment should be 4 weeks. Main outcome measures: (1) Quantitative score of myasthenia gravis (QMG); (2) Recurrence rate; (3) Effective. Secondary outcome measures: (1) The level of serum acetylcholine receptor antibody (AchRab); (2) The levels of inflammatory factors such as IL-6 and IL-10; (3) Clinical absolute score; (4) TCM syndrome score scale; (5) Quality of life score (QOL); (6) Incidence rate of adverse events. All randomized controlled trials (RCT) literatures from the establishment to September 2022 were retrieved and classified.
