Setting: In view of paucity of studies on predictors of hyponatremia in tuberculous meningitis (TBM) and its influence on outcome, this study was undertaken. Objective: To study the frequency, predictors and prognosis of hyponatremia in TBM. Design: In this prospective hospital based study, 76 patients with TBM (definite 18 and probable 58) were enrolled. The severity of meningitis was graded as I-III and hyponatremia as severe (<120 mEq/L), moderate (120-129 mEq/L) or mild (130-134 mEq/L). Hospital death was noted and functional outcome was assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS) on discharge. Results: 34 (44.7%) TBM patients had hyponatremia (mild 3, moderate 23 and severe 8). Hyponatremia was due to cerebral salt wasting in 17, syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone in 3 and miscellaneous causes in 14 patients. Hyponatremia was related to GCS score and basal exudates. Outcome of TBM was related to duration of hospitalization, GCS score, focal deficit, mechanical ventilation, severity of TBM, age and co-morbidities. Cerebral salt wasting was related to severity of TBM. Conclusion: Hyponatremia occurred in 44.7% of TBM patients. Cerebral salt wasting was the commonest cause of hyponatremia and was related to the severity of TBM. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Phonophobia and brainstem excitability in migraine

Jayantee Kalita, Usha K. Misra, Robin Bansal

Summary: The study found that phonophobia in migraineurs may be related to lower hearing threshold and higher brainstem neuronal excitability, presenting characteristics such as lower hearing threshold, higher headache frequency, and multiple sensory triggers. Additionally, higher amplitudes of BAEP waves in migraineurs and their relationship with the frequency of headache and hearing threshold suggest the sensitization of brainstem auditory neurons.

Standard versus sequential anti-tubercular treatment in patients with tuberculous meningitis: a randomized controlled trial

Usha Kant Misra, Mritunjai Kumar, Jayantee Kalita

Summary: Through a randomized controlled trial on patients with tuberculous meningitis, it was found that sequential anti-tubercular treatment was associated with a lower frequency of drug-induced hepatitis, lower in-hospital mortality, and better 6-month outcomes compared to the standard regimen.

Is Palinopsia in Migraineurs a Phenomenon of Impaired Habituation of Visual Cortical Neurons?

Jayantee Kalita, Usha K. Misra, Mritunjai Kumar, Robin Bansal, Ravi Uniyal

Summary: In this study, it was found that palinopsia is more frequent in migraineurs and is associated with neuronal dysexcitability. The impaired habituation of N75 and P100 waveforms is a biomarker for palinopsia in migraine, with N75 showing more pronounced impairment than P100.

Is cerebral salt wasting related to sympathetic dysregulation in tuberculous meningitis?

Abhilasha Tripathi, Ravindra Singh Thakur, Jayantee Kalita, Devendra Kumar Patel, Usha K. Misra

Summary: This study found that in TBM patients, those with CSW had significantly higher levels of catecholamines, especially norepinephrine. Sequential studies revealed that dopamine and epinephrine increased at the time of hyponatremia and declined on its correction. The severity of TBM was related to dopamine levels, while the severity of CSW was related to epinephrine levels.

Prolonged coma in scrub typhus: consider non-convulsive status epilepticus

Jayantee Kalita, Mahesh S. Jadhav, Varun K. Singh, Usha K. Misra

Summary: This report describes a patient with scrub typhus who presented with non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) and recovered after treatment with antiepileptic medications. The study indicates that scrub typhus patients have the potential for recovery even after experiencing prolonged NCSE.

Impact of anticoagulation status on recanalization and outcome of cerebral venous thrombosis

Summary: This study investigated the impact of anticoagulation status on recanalization and outcome in patients with cerebral venous thrombosis. The results showed that at 3 months, recanalization and outcome were not dependent on the patients' coagulation status. Further prospective studies are needed to determine the effects of anticoagulant duration on recanalization and outcome.

Feasibility and usefulness of tele-follow-up in the patients with tuberculous meningitis

Jayantee Kalita, Prakash C. Pandey, Ruchi Shukla, Usha K. Misra

Summary: Telephonic follow-up is feasible and beneficial for patients with tuberculous meningitis, with most patients able to manage medical issues through phone calls and reducing the need for physical visits. It is cost effective, helps in treatment modifications, and overcomes the barrier of distance.
