Introducción: La encefalitis por anticuerpos contra el receptor N-metil.D.aspartato (NMDA-R) es un trastorno inflamatorio del sistema nervioso central (SNC) en el cual autoanticuerpos dirigidos hacia la subunidad NR1 del receptor N-metil-D aspartato (NMDA) desarrollan un conjunto de síntomas neuropsiquiátricos, convulsiones y movimientos anormales. El tratamiento recomendado incluye metilprednisolona (MP) y gamaglobulina (IVIg), y/o recambio plasmático terapéutico (RPT); y en caso de no respuesta: rituximab (RTX) y/o ciclofosfamida (CFM). Objetivos: Analizar características clínicas, bioquímicas, electroencefalograma (EEG), resonancia magnética (RM) cerebral, tratamientos recibidos y resultados observados en una serie de pacientes con encefalitis autoinmune (EA) probable o confirmada. Materiales y métodos: Analizamos las historias clínicas de pacientes menores a 17 años que cumplían criterios diagnósticos de Graus (2016) para EA probable, con seguimiento mayor a 6 meses, internados en el Hospital Garrahan entre 2008 y 2023. El diagnóstico se definió por la identificación de anticuerpos anti-NMDAR (N-metil D-aspartato) en líquido cefalorraquídeo (LCR) por ensayo basado en células - cell bassed assay (CBA). Resultados: Reunieron criterios de EA probable 94 pacientes con una edad media de 89.5 meses, 51% mujeres. Se dividieron en dos grupos: seropositivos y seronegativos de acuerdo al resultado del biomarcador. Seropositivos 45/94. El síntoma inicial más frecuente fue: convulsiones. El 28% requirió ingreso a Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI). 4 pacientes seropositivos y 1 seronegativo tuvieron encefalitis por el virus del herpes simple (Om) previamente. En una paciente seronegativa se diagnosticó teratoma ovárico. Hallazgos de estudios complementarios: LCR patológico en el 29%, RM cerebral en el 52%, EEG en el 74%. El tratamiento de primera línea más empleado fue MP + IVIg. El 46% de los pacientes presentó recuperación completa. Entre los pacientes que recibieron RTX, el 65% tuvo una recuperación completa. Ningún paciente que recibió RTX presentó recaída. Conclusión: Ante la sospecha de EA se debe considerar el inicio temprano de inmunoterapia para favorecer la rápida recuperación funcional. Se recomienda el uso temprano de RTX en los casos con presentación grave o respuesta subóptima al tratamiento de primera línea para beneficiar la respuesta clínica y reducir el riesgo de recaída (AU)


Introduction: Encephalitis due to antibodies against the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA-R) is an inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) in which autoantibodies directed against the NR1 subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor develop a set of neuropsychiatric symptoms, seizures, and abnormal movements. The recommended treatment includes methylprednisolone (MP) and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg), and/or therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE); and in case of non-response: rituximab (RTX) and/or cyclophosphamide (CFM). Objectives: To analyze clinical, biochemical, electroencephalogram (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, treatments received, and outcomes observed in a series of patients with probable or confirmed autoimmune encephalitis (AE). Materials and methods: We analyzed the medical records of patients under 17 years of age who met Graus' diagnostic criteria (2016) for probable AE, with follow-up of more than 6 months, hospitalized at Hospital Garrahan between 2008 and 2023. Diagnosis was defined by the identification of anti-NMDAR antibodies (N-methyl D-aspartate) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by cell-based assay (CBA). Results: Ninety-four patients met criteria for probable AE with a mean age of 89.5 months, 51% female. They were divided into two groups: seropositive and seronegative according to the biomarker result. Seropositive 45/94. The most frequent initial symptom was seizures. Twenty-eight percent required admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Four seropositive patients and one seronegative patient had previously had herpes simplex encephalitis (Om). Ovarian teratoma was diagnosed in one seronegative patient. Findings of complementary studies: Pathological CSF in 29%, brain MRI in 52%, EEG in 74%. The most commonly used first-line treatment was MP + IVIg. Forty-six percent of patients experienced complete recovery. Among patients who received RTX, 65% had complete recovery. No patient who received RTX experienced relapse. Conclusion: In the suspicion of AE, early initiation of immunotherapy should be considered to promote rapid functional recovery. Early use of RTX is recommended in cases with severe presentation or suboptimal response to first-line treatment to benefit clinical response and reduce the risk of relapse (AU)

Introducción y objetivo: Demostrar el valor del plano axial del complejo posterior, como apoyo a la detección antenatal de sintelencefalia, variante de holoprosencefalia. Método: Se incluyeron todas las pacientes con diagnóstico de sintelencefalia evaluadas desde el año 2008. En todos los casos se consignaron los datos clínicos, de neurosonografía (NSG), de resonancia magnética (RM) y genética. Resultados: Cuatro casos fueron diagnosticados en el segundo trimestre y en todos se realizó estudio genético y RM. Tres tuvieron en su evolución anomalías extra-SNC y dos de ellos alteraciones cromosómicas, una de ellas incompatible con la vida extrauterina. Lo hallazgos descritos en neuroimagen para esta afección fueron detectados en la NSG, con una excelente correlación con RM, ya fuera esta última realizada en periodo fetal o posnatal. Conclusión: El diagnóstico prenatal de variantes de holoprosencefalia es difícil, considerando la existencia de una fusión medial más acotada que en las formas clásicas. El presente estudio demuestra la utilidad del plano del complejo posterior para la sospecha diagnóstica de sintelencefalia.


Introduction and objective: To demonstrate the value of the axial plane of the posterior complex, as a clue for the antenatal detection of synthelencephaly, a variant of holoprosencephaly. Method: All patients diagnosed with syntelencephaly evaluated since 2008 were included. In all cases, clinical, neurosonography (NSG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and genetic data were recorded. Results: Four cases were diagnosed in the second trimester and in all of them a genetic study and MRI were performed. Three had extra-CNS anomalies in their evolution and two of them chromosomal anomalies, one of them incompatible with extrauterine life. Neuroimaging findings described for this condition were detected by NSG, with an excellent correlation with MRI, whether the latter was performed in the fetal or postnatal period. Conclusion: The prenatal diagnosis of holoprosencephaly variants is difficult, considering the existence of a more limited medial fusion than in the classical forms. The present study demonstrates the usefulness of the posterior complex plane for the diagnostic suspicion of synthelencephaly.

ABSTRACT Objective: To identify the salivary metabolites profile of Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) types I, II, IV, and VI patients. Material and Methods: The participants were asked to refrain from eating and drinking for one hour before sampling, performed between 7:30 and 9:00 a.m. Samples were centrifuged at 10.000 × g for 60 min at 4°C, and the supernatants (500µl) were stored at −80°C until NMR analysis. The salivary proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectra were acquired in a 500 MHz spectrometer, and TOCSY experiments were used to confirm and assign metabolites. Data were analyzed descriptively. Results: Differences in salivary metabolites were found among MPS types and the control, such as lactate, propionate, alanine, and N-acetyl sugar. Understanding these metabolite changes may contribute to precision medicine and early detection of mucopolysaccharidosis and its monitoring. Conclusion: The composition of low molecular weight salivary metabolites of mucopolysaccharidosis subjects may present specific features compared to healthy controls.

BACKGROUND@#Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has a high mortality rate and is the most common indication for heart transplantation. Our study sought to develop a multiparametric nomogram to assess individualized all-cause mortality or heart transplantation (ACM/HTx) risk in DCM patients.@*METHODS@#The present study is a retrospective cohort study. The demographic, clinical, blood test, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) data of DCM patients in the tertiary center (Fuwai Hospital) were collected. The primary endpoint was ACM/HTx. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression model was applied for variable selection. Multivariable Cox regression was used to develop a nomogram. The concordance index (C-index), area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the performance of the nomogram.@*RESULTS@#A total of 218 patients were included in the present study. They were randomly divided into a training cohort and a validation cohort. The nomogram was established based on eight variables, including mid-wall late gadolinium enhancement, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic volume index, free triiodothyronine, and N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide. The AUCs regarding 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year ACM/HTx events were 0.859, 0.831, and 0.840 in the training cohort and 0.770, 0.789, and 0.819 in the validation cohort, respectively. The calibration curve and DCA showed good accuracy and clinical utility of the nomogram.@*CONCLUSIONS@#We established and validated a circulating biomarker- and CMRI-based nomogram that could provide a personalized prediction of ACM/HTx for DCM patients, which might help risk stratification and decision-making in clinical practice.

A mamografia é o método de eleição para o rastreamento do câncer de mama, sendo o único que demonstra redução de mortalidade na população de risco habitual. A periodicidade de realização e a idade de início do rastreamento mamográfico são um tema controverso na literatura. Entretanto, dados no nosso país apontam para uma porção significativa de neoplasia de mamas em mulheres abaixo dos 50 anos. A Federação Brasileira das Associações de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia (Febrasgo), a Sociedade Brasileira de Mastologia (SBM) e o Colégio Brasileiro de Radiologia e Diagnóstico por Imagem (CBR) concordam que o rastreamento mamográfico deveria ser realizado, anualmente, por todas as mulheres a partir de 40 anos de idade. No Brasil, há uma distribuição desigual de mamógrafos nas várias regiões. As políticas de rastreamento devem considerar essa desigualdade. A grande maioria dos serviços no Brasil realiza rastreamento oportunístico para o câncer de mama. A implantação de rastreamento organizado por faixa etária e estratificação de risco pode otimizar os custos do sistema público de saúde. Pacientes de alto risco precisam ser rastreadas de forma diferente das pacientes de risco habitual. Essas pacientes precisam ter acesso à ressonância magnética das mamas e também iniciar seu rastreamento em idade mais precoce. O protocolo abreviado da ressonância magnética para rastreamento de pacientes de alto risco para câncer de mama pode melhorar a adesão e o acesso dessas pacientes ao programa de rastreamento. A ultrassonografia das mamas não é método de rastreamento isoladamente. Entretanto, ela tem seu papel como método complementar à mamografia e à ressonância magnética em cenários específicos, bem como em substituição à ressonância magnética em pacientes com contraindicação ao uso desse método. As mamas densas possuem baixa sensibilidade para o rastreamento por mamografia

A pericardite constritiva (PC) é uma condição na qual a cicatrização e perda de elasticidade do pericárdio resultam em enchimento ventricular prejudicado, disfunção diastólica e insuficiência cardíaca direita. O diagnóstico dessa patologia é desafiador, sendo frequente a necessidade de técnicas de imagem multimodal, dentre as quais a ecocardiografia representa a modalidade de imagem inicial para a avaliação diagnóstica, além de permitir a diferenciação da PC da cardiomiopatia restritiva (CMR) e outras condições que mimetizam constrição. (AU)


Constrictive pericarditis (CP) is a condition in which scarring and loss of elasticity of the pericardium result in impaired ventricular filling, diastolic dysfunction, and right heart failure. The diagnosis of this pathology is challenging, with frequent need for multimodal imaging techniques, among which echocardiography represents the initial imaging modality for the diagnostic evaluation, in addition to allowing the differentiation of CP from restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) and other conditions that mimic constriction.

A análise da deformação miocárdica ventricular direita tem surgido como uma ferramenta diagnóstica importante na detecção de disfunção sistólica ventricular direita inicial não detectada pelas técnicas ecocardiográficas convencionais. Além disso, é capaz de trazer informações diagnósticas e prognósticas adicionais aos parâmetros tradicionais de avaliação da função sistólica ventricular direita em diversas patologias. O método ecocardiográfico de escolha para sua avaliação é o strain longitudinal derivado do speckletracking. Ele tem se mostrado mais sensível para pequenas mudanças na função sistólica quando comparado à excursão sistólica do plano do anel tricúspide, estudo da onda s´ ao Doppler tecidual do anel tricúspide e variação da área fracional do ventrículo direito. O avanço da inteligência artificial e a presença de softwares com análise automatizada entram neste cenário visando tornar a aplicabilidade do método mais simples, rápida e com menor variabilidade inter e intraobservador. O objetivo deste artigo de revisão é demonstrar o passo a passo da técnica, desde a otimização e aquisição de imagens até a interpretação dos resultados, com figuras ilustrativas de casos selecionados.(AU)


Right ventricular strain analysis has emerged as an important diagnostic tool in the detection of early right ventricular systolic dysfunction not detected by conventional echocardiography techniques. Furthermore, it is capable of providing additional diagnostic and prognostic information to the traditional parameters for evaluating right ventricular systolic function in various pathologies. The echocardiography method of choice for its assessment is longitudinal strain derived from speckletracking. This method has been shown to be more sensitive for small changes in systolic function when compared to tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, tissue Doppler imaging of the tricuspid annular s' wave, and right ventricular fractional area change. Advances in artificial intelligence and software with automated analysis have been introduced to this scenario with the aim of making the method simpler and quicker to apply, with lower inter- and intra-observer variability. The objective of this review article is to demonstrate the technique step by step, from image optimization and acquisition to interpretation of results, with illustrative figures of selected cases.(AU)

A prática regular de esportes pode induzir adaptações no coração, sendo essa condição comumente chamada de "coração de atleta". As alterações observadas incluem dilatação das câmaras cardíacas, aumento da espessura miocárdica, melhora do enchimento ventricular, aumento da trabeculação do ventrículo esquerdo (VE), dilatação da veia cava inferior, entre outras. Essas alterações também podem ser observadas em algumas doenças cardíacas, como cardiomiopatia (CMP) dilatada, hipertrófica e outras. Dessa forma, os exames de imagem cardíaca são fundamentais na identificação dessas alterações e na diferenciação entre o "coração de atleta" e uma possível cardiopatia.(AU)


Exercise-induced adaptation may occur in amateur and professional athletes. This condition is commonly named "athlete's heart". The alterations observed include dilation of the heart chambers, increased myocardial thickness, improved ventricular filling, increased left ventricular trabeculation, dilation of the inferior vena cava, among others. These changes can also be observed in some heart diseases, such as dilated, hypertrophic and other cardiomyopathies (CMP). Thus, cardiac imaging tests are fundamental in identifying these alterations and in differentiating between "athlete's heart" and possible heart disease. (AU)

Coração em criss-cross (ou coração entrecruzado) foi descrito pela primeira vez em 1974. Trata-se de uma malformação cardíaca congênita, rara, ocorrendo 8 casos a cada 1.000.000 de crianças, e representando somente 0,1% das malformações congênitas. Os métodos diagnósticos de escolha são o ecocardiograma transtorácico, a ressonância magnética cardíaca (RMC), a angiotomografia (TC) e, eventualmente, o cateterismo cardíaco. Neste relato, descreve-se o caso de um recém-nascido com coração em criss-cross somado à dupla via de saída do ventrículo direito (VD), com vasos mal posicionados, além de comunicação interatrial (CIA), comunicação interventricular (CIV), displasia de valva tricúspide e veia cava superior esquerda persistente. Não se sabe a etiologia exata dessa malformação, mas parece ocorrer pela rotação dos ventrículos em seu eixo longitudinal, não acompanhada das rotações atrial e das valvas atrioventriculares (AV). Esse movimento produz uma alteração das vias de entrada dos ventrículos, determinando que o VD se posicione em plano superior e o esquerdo em plano inferior. Apesar de ainda não se saber a exata causa dessa anomalia, acredita-se que uma alteração genética possa estar levando a esses casos: a mutação do gene Cx43. O diagnóstico do caso em questão foi dado pela ecocardiografia transtorácica e da TC de aorta e artérias pulmonares, que mostraram, além do criss-cross, outras alterações, como dupla via de saída do VD, CIA e CIV amplas.(AU)


Criss-cross heart was first described in 1974. It is a rare congenital heart malformation that occurs in 8 cases per 1,000,000 children, and represents only 0.1% of congenital malformations. The diagnostic methods of choice are transthoracic echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), computed tomography angiography (CT) and, sometimes, cardiac catheterization. This report describes the case of a newborn with a criss-cross heart in addition to double-outlet right ventricle (RV), with poorly positioned vessels, in addition to atrial septal defect (ASD), interventricular septal defect, tricuspid valve dysplasia and persistent left superior vena cava. The exact etiology of this malformation is not known, but it seems to occur due to rotation of the ventricles in their longitudinal axis, not accompanied by rotation of the atrial and atrioventricular (AV) valves. This movement produces abnormal ventricular inlets, determining that the RV be positioned on a superior plane and the left ventricle on an inferior plane. Although the exact cause of this anomaly is still unknown, it is believed that a genetic abnormality may be leading to these cases: mutation of the Cx43 gene. Diagnosis of the case concerned was given by transthoracic echocardiography and computed CT of the aorta and pulmonary arteries, which showed, in addition to the criss-cross heart, other abnormalities, such as double-outlet RV, large ASD and ventricular septal defect (VSD).(AU)

Objective: the aim of this study was to analyse the performance of the technique of texture analysis (TA) with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of temporomandibular joints (TMJs) as a tool for identification of possible changes in individuals with migraine headache (MH) by relating the findings to the presence of internal derangements. Material and Methods: thirty MRI scans of the TMJ were selected for study, of which 15 were from individuals without MH or any other type of headache (control group) and 15 from those diagnosed with migraine. T2-weighted MRI scans of the articular joints taken in closed-mouth position were used for TA. The co-occurrence matrix was used to calculate the texture parameters. Fisher's exact test was used to compare the groups for gender, disc function and disc position, whereas Mann-Whitney's test was used for other parameters. The relationship of TA with disc position and function was assessed by using logistic regression adjusted for side and group. Results: the results indicated that the MRI texture analysis of articular discs in individuals with migraine headache has the potential to determine the behaviour of disc derangements, in which high values of contrast, low values of entropy and their correlation can correspond to displacements and tendency for non-reduction of the disc in these individuals. Conclusion: the TA of articular discs in individuals with MH has the potential to determine the behaviour of disc derangements based on high values of contrast and low values of entropy (AU)


Objetivo: o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o desempenho da técnica de análise de textura (AT) em exames de ressonância magnética (RM) das articulações temporomandibulares (ATM) como ferramenta para identificação de possíveis alterações em indivíduos com cefaléia migrânea (CM) relacionando os achados com a presença de desarranjos internos. Material e Métodos: trinta exames de RM das ATM foram selecionados para estudo, sendo 15 de indivíduos sem cefaleia migrânea ou qualquer outro tipo de cefaléia (grupo controle) e 15 diagnosticados com CM. As imagens de RM ponderadas em T2 das articulações realizadas na posição de boca fechada foram usadas para AT. A matriz de co-ocorrência foi usada para calcular os parâmetros de textura. O teste exato de Fisher foi usado para comparar os grupos quanto ao sexo, função do disco e posição do disco, enquanto o teste de Mann-Whitney foi usado para os demais parâmetros. A relação da AT com a posição e função do disco foi avaliada por meio de regressão logística ajustada para lado e grupo. Resultados: a AT por RM dos discos articulares em indivíduos com cefaleia migrânea tem o potencial de determinar o comportamento dos desarranjos discais, em que altos valores de contraste, baixos valores de entropia e sua correlação podem corresponder a deslocamentos e tendência a não redução do disco nesses indivíduos. Conclusão: a análise de textura dos discos articulares em indivíduos com CM tem potencial para determinar o comportamento dos desarranjos do disco com base em altos valores de contraste e baixos valores de entropia.
