Variability in user performance has been a crucial hurdle that prevents the adoption of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), but the factors that led to the variations were unclear. This study investigates the effect of age on the strength of steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) – an important attribute that determines the BCI performance. Ninety-three subjects ranging from six to 78 years old were recruited for the study, and each of them was tested for their SSVEPs in response to flickering lights of five different frequencies presented at random sequences. The results showed that there is a significant correlation between the strength of SSVEP and user age, with weaker SSVEP response registered in older subjects at all stimulation frequencies tested. Further inter-group comparisons indicated that older subjects tended to show more attenuated SSVEP response compared to the younger and the middle-aged subjects, while there is no significant difference in the SSVEP amplitude between the subjects from the younger and the middle-age groups. The SSVEP response was stronger when elicited using light-emitting diode (LED) compared to liquid crystal display (LCD) stimulators. These findings suggest that age as an important factor in BCI performance, and learning about the age-associated changes could provide additional insight into adapting the BCI system to individual users.
Is poor outcome predictable in posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome? A case series
Authors: Erdogan Seyda , Özaydın Aksun Zerin
Published: October 2022

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) was first described by Hinchey et al. in 1996, as a distinct clinico-radiological disease with clinically presence of acute onset seizures, encephalopathy, headache and/or visual disturbances together with radiological findings of vasogenic brain edema typically in the parieto-occipital white matter.1,2 The prognosis of PRES is generally benign. However, it can result in poor outcome and even death.3-5 We aimed to analyze the clinical findings of PRES patients followed at our institution and identify the possible unfavorable prognostic factors. We retrospectively reviewed the hospital charts of patients diagnosed with PRES in the last two years.
The practice patterns of migraine management among neurologists in the Philippines - A cross-sectional survey
Authors: Roxas Artemio Agra Jr. , Quiles Liz Edenberg , Diamante Pearl  Angeli
Published: October 2022

Objectives: We aimed to describe the current preferences of Filipino neurologists in the diagnosis and management of migraine.
Methods: This is an observational descriptive study using a web-based survey done from November 2019 to June 2020 among certified locally practicing neurologists belonging to the Philippine Neurological Association.
Results: A total of 259 (56.67%) from the 2018 roster of 457 neurologists participated in the survey. The prevalence of migraine in the respondents was 49.81% with a F:M ratio of 3.3:1. The majority (78%) based their diagnosis on established international criteria for migraine. Many (77%) would request neuroimaging for their patients with a history of more than 3 years of recurrent severe migraine. The most preferred class of drugs for acute migraine was NSAIDs (48.26%). One-third of respondents would give anti-nausea medications for moderate to severe attacks of migraine. About half would not consider using triptans for their patients with moderate to severe episodic migraine attacks. The top three drugs used for migraine prophylaxis were topiramate (80.69%) followed by flunarizine (73.36%) and propranolol (49.03%). Among patients with two or more headaches per week, 74.13% would prescribe prophylactic drugs. The use of a headache diary and the Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS) was advised by 62.16% and 14.67% of respondents respectively, while cautioning about medication overuse headache was done by 68.34%.
Conclusions: We have described the preferred practice of Filipino neurologists in diagnosing and treating migraine patients with locally available resources. The use of measurement tools (specifically MIDAS scoring to assess migraine disability), triptans, and anti-nausea drugs are not popular practices among Filipino neurologists The survey shows the need to promote the use of prophylactic drugs, counselling for medication overuse and more teaching about primary headaches in medical school.
De Morsier plus syndrome: A rare congenital disorder presenting with adult onset seizure
Authors: Ditucalan Lovelle G , Gan Herminigildo H
Published: October 2022

De Morsier syndrome, also known as septo-optic dysplasia (SOD), describes a triad of optic nerve hypoplasia, hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction and midline abnormalities such as absent septum pellucidum or dysgenesis of the corpus callosum. It is a rare congenital disorder that an estimated incidence of 1/50,000 was recorded. This disease has a variety of clinical symptoms, which include visual manifestations (85-90%), intellectual delay (42.5-60%), seizures (27.5-55%) and endocrine abnormalities (50-55%). However, those patients with symptoms of global developmental delay and motor deficits could not be explained by the corpus callosum hypoplasia alone and were noted to manifest other underrecognized cortical malformations such as schizencephaly and polymicrogyria, hence termed De Morsier plus syndrome. In the Philippines, the existence of De Morsier plus syndrome with a lack of developmental disorders detected during adulthood is uncommon with no reported case yet. This report is a case of a 24-year-old, male, who presented with adult-onset seizure with associated eye symptoms. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging revealed bilateral schizencephaly in both parietal lobes with absent septum pellucidum, polymicrogyria, agyria-pachygyria and optic nerve atrophy. On electroencephalogram, epileptiform discharges were noted in the left parietal area. This case was managed under anti-seizure medication with no seizure recurrence and a good outcome.

Published: October 2022

Objectives To explore the independent risk factors of twice or more strokes in patients with cerebral small vessel disease, and to construct a predictive scoring system.

Methods A retrospective study was carried out in Tangshan, Hebei Province, China. Patients with cerebral small vessel disease suffered from acute stroke and admitted to Neurology Department of Tangshan Gongren Hospital from January 2020 to June 2021 were collected and grouped according to whether they had a previous stroke history. Binary logistic regression models were used to investigate the independent risks for the occurrence of twice or more strokes in patients with cerebral small vessel disease, assigned scores to each factor, then established and evaluated the predictive efficacy of the predictive scoring system.

Results A total of 531 patients were included. Regression analysis showed that age, hypertension, diabetes, intracranial arterial stenosis, and total cerebral small vessel disease burden were independent risk factors. On the basis of each regression coefficient, a 10-point predictive scoring system selected the highest Jordon index as the cut-off value, which was 4 points. And the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.842 (95 %CI: 0.796~0.893, P＜0.001).

Conclusions The predictive scoring system based on age, hypertension, diabetes, intracranial arterial stenosis, and total cerebral small vessel disease burden can effectively predict whether patients with cerebral small vessel disease are tend to be onset with twice or more strokes.

Background & Objectives: The aim of this study is investigate the relationship of C-reactive protein, albumin, C-reactive protein/albumin ratio with prognosis and 28-day mortality in critically ill patients over 85 years of age with acute ıschaemic stroke.
Methods: This study is a retrospective and observational study. A total of 189 patients aged 85 years and older who were followed up in the intensive care unit between 2017 and 2020 were included in the study. Demographic data of the patients included in the study, length of stay in the intensive care unit, comorbidities, laboratory data of hospitalization in the intensive care unit, C-reactive protein, albumin, C-reactive protein/albumin ratio, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratios, thrombocyte/lymphocyte ratios, APACHE II, SAPS II values of intensive care admissions were recorded.
Results: In the statistical analysis performed for C-reactive protein, albumin, C-reactive protein/albumin ratio between survival and non-survival groups, a statistically significant difference was found between the groups (For C-reactive protein, p = 0.03; for albumin, p = 0.02; for C-reactive protein/albumin ratio, p= 0.03). The logistic regression model was applied to investigate the independent risk factors affecting the patients’ mortality at 28 days. Albumin, CRP , C-reactive protein/albumin ratio was found to be associated with 28-day mortality according to the logistic regression analysis. (For albumin; p= 0.04, for C-reactive protein; p= 0.04, for C-reactive protein/albumin ratio; p= 0.04). According to the ROC curve analysis result, Cut-off value was found to be 2.47 for C-reactive protein/albumin ratio.
Conclusion: The CRP/albumin ratio is a valuable parameter that can be used to predict 28-day mortality in critically ill very elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke.

In specific populations, soy products have been a part of their diet for many centuries. Soybeans are known to be beneficial mostly because of being rich sources of isoflavones. Various studies showed that Soy isoflavones such as daidzein and genistein have positive effects on gastrointestinal health, cancer prevention, and health promotion in postmenopausal women. In recent years, many studies focused on the neuroprotective effects of soy isoflavones in animal models and humans. This review includes the latest literature on the effects of soy isoflavones in various neurological disorders. In conclusion, soy isoflavones have neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidant effects and can be used to prevent stroke, improve memory and cognitive function, reduction of Parkinson’s disease symptoms, and also as a therapeutic agent in multiple sclerosis.
A novel splice-site variant in the MCPH1 gene manifests with autosomal recessive primary microcephaly
Authors: Kocaaga Ayca , Yimenicioglu Sevgi
Published: October 2022

Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder that results in severe microcephaly, reduction of brain volume, and mental retardation. Mutations in MCPH1, which encodes the protein microcephalin, have been detected in primary microcephaly. In this report, we describe an infant girl from a consanguineous Turkish family who is affected by autosomal recessive primary microcephaly. This patient also has craniofacial dysmorphic findings, intellectual disability, and developmental delay. Neuroimaging revealed a reduction in cranial volume and delayed myelination. We performed whole exome sequencing to find the genetic defects. A novel splice-site variant (NM_024596.5; MCPH1: c.321+5G > A) was identified in a homozygous state in intronic 4 of the MCPH1 gene. The parents of the proband were heterozygous carriers for this variation. This new splice site homozygous mutation in our patient will help to establish a database of genetic variants for populations. This study also enlarges the mutation spectrum of the MCPH1 gene and points out the importance of splice-site variants by sequencing.

Authors: Saadatnia Mohammad , Fatehi Farzad , Dehghani Leila , Ebrahimi Homa , Tajmirriahi Marzieh
Published: October 2022

Background & Objective: There is no data about the significance of the metabolic syndrome (MeS) for the development of cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis (CVST). We investigated the association of metabolic syndrome in a consecutive series of patients with CVST.
Methods: This is a case–control study, where consecutive patients of CVST and control subjects were assessed for MeS according to the National Cholesterol Education Program criteria. The prevalence of the MeS was compared between patients with CVST and controls.
Results: We enrolled 58 patients with a first episode of CVST and 129 controls. In univariate analysis, MeS was significantly more common in CVST patients than in controls [Patients 28 (48.3%), control 28 (21.7%); odds ratio (OR) 3.36; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.77, 6.53, p<0.001]. After adjustment for age and sex, we found OCP usage (OR 22.7; 95% CI 7.75, 66.66, p<0.001) and the MeS (OR 3.26; 95% CI 1.15, 9.25, p=0.02) to be independently associated with CVST. When coexistence of OCP usage and MeS was considered as a variant in univariate analysis comparing CVST patients and controls, we found association with CVST to be even higher (OR 47.6; 95% CI 5.91, 333.3, P< 0.001).
Conclusion: CVST is a disease with multiple risk factors and coexistence of MeS and OCP usage can potentiate the risk of CVST occurrence.
A novel p.Ala34Val variant in C19orf12 is associated with neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation
Authors: Kocaaga Ayca , Uzun Uslu Pınar
Published: October 2022

Loss-of-function mutations in the C19orf12 gene may lead to mitochondrial membrane protein- associated neurodegeneration (MPAN), which is a subtype of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation disorders. It is manifest with juvenile-onset spastic paraparesis, dystonia, dysphagia, optic atrophy, decreased cognitive functions, and neuropsychiatric symptoms. Large amounts of iron are accumulated in the globus pallidus and substantia nigra pars reticulata due to abnormal brain iron metabolism. We report a novel C19orf12 (c.101C>T;p.Ala34Val) homozygous mutation in a Turkish man who presented with postural instability, slow gait and anxiety. Neuroimaging showed mild iron deposition in the basal ganglia and cortical atrophy. These results are consistent with the MPAN. This report demonstrates the importance of testing patients with spastic paraplegia, parkinsonism, motor axonal neuropathy, difficulty walking or dysarthria for MPAN.

Background & Objective: Tension-type headache (TTH) is the most common primary headache. TTH worsens quality of life and is related to various psychosocial factors. We aimed to examine the severity of headache (intensity, frequency, and duration), analgesic use, quality of life (QoL), and the impact of COVID pandemic-induced stress in TTH patients.
Methods: TTH cases seen at neurology outpatient clinics in 15 centers in Turkey were included in the study. A questionnaire incorporating sociodemographic and medical information, headache features, sleep quality, general quality of life, and impact of the pandemic event was administered to the subjects.
Results: A total of 975 TTH patients were evaluated. Headache severity was higher in women as well as in patients with a history of COVID-19 contact. Women, those with chronic diseases, and cases with a COVID-19 contact history had worse perceptions of quality of life and were affected to a greater extent by the pandemic. The factors affecting the impact of the pandemic were female gender and difficulty in access to health services for headache. Co-existing chronic diseases and lost productive time due to headaches were negative determinants for both QoL and the impact of the pandemic.
Conclusion: Our results show that the COVID pandemic severely worsened the headache burden, quality of life and mental health of TTH patients. These findings can guide us in the clinical approach to TTH cases.
Reframing “the most holy spot in Ireland”: an analysis of the narratives from and around Kilmainham Gaol
Authors: Ogliari Elena
Published: October 2022

Prisons play a prominent role in Irish imagination and collective memory, because their wings and cells bore witness to many turning points in the country’s recent history. Kilmainham Gaol, often called ‘the Bastille of Ireland’, is no exception: from 1796 to its closure in 1924, it held the leaders of nineteenth-century agrarian and nationalist revolts as well as the Easter Rising rebels in 1916. Given the Gaol’s importance in nationalist history, it has been argued that a specific narrative came to be constructed around it by its restorers: one aimed at elevating the Gaol to a symbol of the separatist struggle, and which deliberately downplayed the fact that the prison had been a place of detention also for non-political prisoners and the opponents of the Free State. Scholars contend that this narrative long dominated over stories of ordinary penal history, and, only recently, brief mentions of ‘ordinary’ prisoners and the Civil War have entered the dominant narrative. My article questions these assumptions and is divided into two parts to outline such ‘reframing’ of Kilmainham Gaol: first, drawing on archival documents, I discuss the intention of the authorities to redesign Ireland’s past as a monolithic history of struggle against the enemies of the nation in their narrative of the Gaol, and I argue for the need to consider their reasons to do so; second, I resort to Witcomb’s methodological approach to highlight how today’s curators respond to the representational challenges posed by the Gaol and aim at incorporating into the narrative of the site the dissonant voices of those who had been previously neglected.
Between in- and re-action: Resistance and resilience in Stefan Zweig’s Erasmus of Rotterdam
Authors: Capovilla Erika
Published: October 2022

This article provides a reading of Stefan Zweig’s auto/biography Erasmus of Rotterdam (1934) as the writer’s counteraction to a situation of vulnerability and conflict. Erasmus does not just fall within the genre of the historical biography, but it also represents a “veiled autobiography” in that, by depicting a kindred soul of his, Zweig exposes himself unreservedly to the world. In contrast to most of the studies conducted so farmainly focused on the author’s implicit confession of faintheartedness through his literary alter-egothis contribution aims to demonstrate that it is not the idea of escapism, but rather that of resistance/resilience, that underpins the text. To this end, the affinities between Zweig and Erasmus in terms of their common marginality and vulnerability will be explored, in order to better understand their personal response to this status, that is, a peaceful fight carried out by means of poetic acts. According to this perspective, Zweig’s Erasmus-biography will be presented as a re-action in two different ways: on the one hand the autobiographical references disclose the writer’s concerns about National Socialism, turning his work into an artistic form of dissidence, i.e., a practice of resistance; on the other hand, the therapeutic function ascribed by Zweig to the text composition unveils it as a testimony of resilience.
Mimetic Mechanisms and Indigenous Vulnerability in Alexis Wright’s Carpentaria
Authors: Tosi Valérie
Published: October 2022

This article investigates Alexis Wright’s novel Carpentaria (2006) through the lens of the mimetic theory developed by René Girard, which I combined with Jean Price-Mars’ definition of “collective bovarism” and Umberto Eco’s narrative semiotics. In my close reading of the novel, I explore how the author exposes the detrimental mimetic mechanisms hidden behind characters’ behaviours and relationships to articulate a discourse on the risks of assimilation and the necessity for Aboriginal resistance to neocolonialism. I argue that in Carpentaria the emulation of the dominant society’s values and beliefs by assimilated Indigenous characters results in the social disintegration and vulnerability of the Indigenous communities. Not only do mimetic mechanisms negatively affect the epistemic systems of Aboriginal characters in terms of preparedness to climate change, but they also undermine their social cohesion and physical survival. Furthermore, investigating the text at a semiotic level, I identified some thematic isotopies that Wright uses to emphasise the racial bias and dehumanising attitudes towards black people embedded in the neocolonial gaze. Prioritising the textual dimension of the novel, my approach focuses on how the sociocultural and physical vulnerability of the Indigenous characters is depicted at a philosophical, rhetorical and narratological level. My investigation focuses on four narrative places: the dump, the city, the Pricklebush and the ocean.
Exploring cultural conceptualisations in two online Singlish dictionaries
Authors: Guzzetti Martina
Published: October 2022

The global spread of English has resulted in new varieties and cultures being associated with it; Cultural Linguistics studies these by emphasising the relationship between language and culturally-constructed conceptualisations. English is often seen as negative for local languages, especially in post-colonial contexts; however, speech communities can develop new varieties by localising it through ‘glocalisation’ or ‘nativisation’. The purpose of this paper is to investigate these notions by considering Singlish, the colloquial variety of Singapore English. Here, the adoption of English words has contributed to the creation of a localised variety, though this hybridisation is often seen as a corruption. The long-lasting debate around it has seen direct intervention of the Government and reactions of linguistic resistance or “chutzpah” coming from Singlish speakers, in an attempt to reclaim Singlish as the true expression of Singaporean identity. The analysis examines English words in two online Singlish dictionaries (A Dictionary of Singlish and Singapore English and The Coxford Singlish Dictionary), in order to understand the cultural conceptualisations they represent. A cross-checking with the Oxford English Dictionary further highlights differences with the standard: this helps demonstrate that English expressions can become the keywords of a culture of non-native speakers and contribute to a redefinition of its linguistic identity, rather than cancelling it.
Scelta linguistica e identità nella popolazione bilingue ucraina
Authors: Avellis Michela
Published: October 2022

Nel 1991, la conquista dell’indipendenza da parte dell’Ucraina ha portato alla (ri)scoperta di un’identità nazionale e ha posto in primo piano la questione della lingua. Da allora, la lingua ucraina ha visto crescere il proprio status e ha iniziato ad essere utilizzata in sempre più domini comunicativi, mentre, parallelamente, la nuova Costituzione dichiarava il russo lingua di una minoranza nazionale. Tuttavia, il censimento del 2001 e altri sondaggi più recenti mostrano l’esistenza di un cospicuo gruppo di madrelingua russi, e rilevano che l’uso del russo come principale lingua di comunicazione riguarda un numero di persone che eccede la comunità madrelingua. Il presente articolo contribuisce a verificare la situazione sociolinguistica della lingua russa, presentando i risultati principali della ricerca sul campo che ho condotto in Ucraina nel 2018. Dall’analisi quantitativa e qualitativa dei dati raccolti emergono la complessità del contesto linguistico e culturale ucraino e il conflitto interiore che accompagna il problema della scelta linguistica: essa è, infatti, legata all’interrogativo riguardo alla propria identità e alla difficoltà diffusa a determinare un confine tra ciò che è ‘proprio’ e ciò che è ‘altro’.
La diversità linguistica nell’era digitale: le sfide della lingua serba
Authors: Perišić Olja
Published: October 2022

Il presente contributo è dedicato all’analisi degli strumenti digitali utilizzati nell’ambito dell’insegnamento e della lessicografia del serbo come LS. Considerate le particolari caratteristiche di questa lingua, soprattutto in relazione alla sua ricca morfologia, tra gli strumenti indispensabili nelle prime fasi di studio si annoverano i dizionari morfologici, mentre ai livelli intermedio e avanzato si rendono necessari i dizionari digitali e i corpora linguistici. A differenza dell’inglese, che in tema di tecnologie digitali conosce un aggiornamento e uno sviluppo pressoché continui, le lingue con meno risorse, come il serbo, fanno prevalentemente ricorso a strumenti tradizionali, e solo negli ultimi anni si è affermata la tendenza a orientarsi verso il digitale. La pandemia globale, esplosa all’inizio del 2020, ha accelerato questo processo sollecitando gli insegnanti nella ricerca di percorsi innovativi che si prestino alla didattica virtuale. Le questioni qui enucleate e per le quali in questa sede si cercherà di trovare una risposta riguardano: gli strumenti digitali per la lingua serba come LS, i loro vantaggi rispetto al materiale didattico tradizionale, le possibili strade da seguire nella sperimentazione della metodologia Data-driven learning.

Authors: Ilyas Ilyas , Jamaah Jamaah
Published: October 2022

Lembaga pendidikan, sejak dari terendah hingga pendidikan tinggi, yang bertugas melakukan rekayasa pengetahuan, keterampilan, sikap dan nilai-nilai memiliki peran penting dalam membentuk masyarakat yang toleran dan saling menghargai perbedaan. Penelitian ini menganalisis implementasi nilai-nilai multikulturalisme dalam praktik pembelajaran di STKIP Yapis Dompu. Pengumpulan data penelitian kualitatif ini menggunakan teknik wawancara dan analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa penerapan nilai-nilai multikulturalisme di lingkungan kampus STKIP Yapis, terutama dalam relasi dengan minoritas mahasiswa nonmuslim, cukup baik. Meski secara simbolik penampilan terutama mahasiswa perempuan cukup menonjol dan eksklusif karena tidak berjilbab di tengah teman-teman perempuan lainnya yang tidak berbusana muslimah terssebut, namun mereka merasa nyaman baik di dalam kelas maupun di luar kelas. Hal itu disebabkan di dalam kelas, proses pembelajaran yang dilakukan dosen (agama Islam) tetap berupaya menjaga semangat saling menghargai khususnya jika menyangkut materi kuliah yang membahas perbedaan doktrin agama masing-masing. Sedangkan di luar kelas, mahasiswa minoritas juga mendapatkan lingkungan pergaulan yang aman dan support dari teman aktivis organisasi ekstrakampus. Organisasi Pergerakan Mahasiswa Islam Indonesia (PMII), salah satu organisasi sayap Nahdlatul Ulama, bahkan menyediakan diri menerima keaggotaan mahasiswa non muslim.
