Background and objectives: Dementia is characterized by loss of or decline in memory and other cognitive abilities and reduces the lifespan of affected people. The number of people with Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias is increasing every year because of the steady growth in the older population and stable increment in life expectancy and it is expected to increase two-fold by 2030 and three-fold by 2050.In addition to Alzheimer’s disease there are so many reversible and irreversible causes of dementia. This study was aimed to explore the different etiological factors related to dementia patients. Risk factors for dementia, co-morbid conditions were also included.
Methods: This cross sectional study was carried out from 2009 to 2014 at dementia clinic (OPD), department of Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU). A total number of 166 dementia patients, as diagnosed by Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) and confirmed by Mini Mental State Examination(MMSE) score were recruited in this study. Diagnosis of specific type of dementia was made on the basis of established criteria.
Results: Alzheimer’s disease(32.5%) and Vascular dementia(31.9%) were the most common etiological factor followed by Mixed dementia(19.9%), PD with dementia(8.4%) and others(7.2%) like hypothyroidism, head injury, epilepsy etc. Increasing age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, IHD, smoking are potential risk factors for dementia.
Conclusion: This study concludes Alzheimer’s disease and Vascular dementia are almost equally occurring dementia. There are also some potential risk factors for development of dementia whose modification can bring a great change in dementia treatment and functional outcome of this group of elderly people of Bangladesh.

Objective: To find out the relationship of different lipids, lipoproteins and ischemic stroke patients in Bangladesh.
Methodology: This case control study was conducted among the patients having ischemic stroke who were admitted in Department of Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from July, 1997 to June, 1999 and age, sex matched apparently healthy volunteers. Sixty ischemic stroke patients confirmed by CT scan of brain and sixty age and sex matched apparently healthy volunteers were enrolled as controls. 12 hours fasting lipid profile (Total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDLcholesterol and Triglyceride) was done for both ischemic stroke patients and healthy volunteers for comparison. The students (unpaired) t test was used to compare group means for lipids and lipoproteins. Chi square test, odds ratio with confidence interval were done to evaluate differences between the groups for other variables. P<0.05 was considered as minimum level of significance.
Result: The mean age (±SD) of the patients and controls were 58.45±10.12 and 59.40±10.41 years respectively and 44 (73.3%) were male and 16 (26.7%) were female and male- female ratio was 2.75:1 in both cases and controls. Total cholesterol (Means) was 201.62±5.52 mg/dl and 169.13±3.49 mg/dl in cases and controls respectively (P<0.001). HDL cholesterol (Means) was 38.36±0.81 mg/dl and 44.03±0.84 mg/dl in cases and controls respectively (P<0.001). LDL cholesterol (Mean±SE) in ischemic stroke patients and controls were 125.45±4.63 mg/dl and 96.40±3.23 mg/dl respectively (P<0.001). Triglyceride (Mean±SE) in cases and controls were 188.50±9.35 mg/dl and 142.85±4.72 mg/dl respectively (P<0.001).
Conclusion: This case-control study showed significant differences of serum lipids and lipoproteins (Total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglyceride) in ischemic stroke patients than the controls in our community.

Objective: The present case-control study was undertaken to find the association between serum level of CRP and attack of migraine.
Methods: The study was carried out at the Headache Clinic and Outpatient Department of Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka over a period of 2 years from January 2010 to December 2011. Migraine patients attending at the above mentioned places were enrolled as cases, while apparently healthy attendants of cases and other healthy persons, who did not have any history of migraine, were included as control. Based on predefined enrollment criteria, a total of 163 subjects were included in the study. Of them 87 were cases and 76 were controls. The serum levels of CRP of both cases and controls were measured and a serum level of > 6 mg/L was considered as raised/ elevated CRP. Levels of CRP were compared between groups (case and control) using appropriate statistical tests.
Result: The findings of the study showed that the age and sex distribution of case and control groups were almost comparable. The behavioral factors like food or smoking habit and tobacco leaf chewing had no difference between the groups. Over 20% of migraine patients had abnormally high CRP as compared to 7.9% in the control group (p = 0.021). The migraine patients were 3(95% CI = 1.1 - 8.1) times more likely to be associated with raised CRP (> 6 mg/L) than their healthy counterparts. There were 7 migraine patients with aura and 80 without aura. The level of CRP was not found to be associated with type of migraine (with or without aura) (p = 0.960).
Conclusion: Every one in five patients exhibits abnormally high CRP. The level of CRP does not vary whether the migraine is being associated with or without aura. The migraineurs carry higher risk of developing elevated CRP than their normal counterparts.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers for Diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: Sarker Imran , Khan Md Rezaul Karim , Haque Anisul , Islam Md Rafiqul 
Published: January 2022

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia among elderly people. The major pathological hallmarks of AD are the loss of neurons, occurrence of extracellular senile plaques as well as intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFT). Biochemical changes in the brain are reflected in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and intense research efforts have been made to develop biomarkers for the central pathogenic processes in AD that can be used as diagnostic tools. Biomarkers are essential part of disease management as they are essential for diagnosis, monitoring the disease progression, detecting early onset of the disease, monitoring the effect of therapeutic intervention, and also avoiding false diagnosis of the disease. Unfortunately, none of the biomarkers presently available are able to accomplish the disease diagnosis single-handedly. Three CSF biomarkers, Aâ42, Total-tau (t-tau), and phosphorylated-tau (p-tau), have been found to have the highest diagnostic potential.

Published: January 2022

Aim: Recent studies have provided evidence that uric acid (UA) is supposed to play a neuro-protective role in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Uric acid is a natural antioxidant that may reduce oxidative stress, a mechanism thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of PD. This study aimed to evaluate whether the serum UA level was associated with PD in a relatively small population of Bangladeshi patients.
Materials and methods: An observational prospective case control Study was conducted in Neurology department of Sir Salimullah Medical College & Mitford Hospital including both the male and female wards during July 2012 to December 2013. Serum uric acid were determined from 40 PD patients and compared with 70 age and sex matched control; following the uric acid colorimetric method, the serum creatinine (Scr) levels were also measured to reduce the bias caused by possible differences in renal excretion function. Data were analyzed with software SPSS 16 and statistical descriptive methods (mean percentage, SD) and t-test.
Result: In this study, 22 men (55%) and 18 women (45%) with PD were evaluated. The mean serum uric acid in patients was 3.7±0.97 and in the control group was 5.32 ±0.44. This difference was statistically significant.(p=0.001) Also, the mean serum uric acid in both men (3.48±0.98) and women (4.1±1.17) patients group was statistically lower than both men (5.39±0.46) and women (5.17±0.35) in control group.(p=0.001).
Conclusion: This present study showed a positive association between low serum UA and PD .

GBS with Bilateral plantar extensor – A case report
Authors: Rahman Hafizur , Hannan MA , Arifuzzaman Md , Abbasi Mahabub Ara 
Published: January 2022

GBS is an immune mediated polyradiculoneuropathy classically characterized by acute symmetrical ascending lower motor type weakness and areflexia. But sometimes, in axonal variants of GBS, reflexes are preserved or exaggerated. We report a case of GBS with bilateral extensor plantar response during the course of the disease. A 36- year-old male presented with acute quadriplegia with asymmetrical muscle weakness and extensor plantar response. Sensory, bowel and bladder function was intact. He was treated with intravenous methylprednisolone daily for 5 days without improvement. NCS revealed AIDP and AMAN variants of GBS. So, in any patient presenting with acute quadriplegia with extensor plantar response, GBS should be considered as differential diagnosis.

Published: January 2022

Background: The relation between serum lipids and ischemic stroke remains controversial in young patients. The aim was to determine the serum lipid profile and the vascular risk factors for ischaemic stroke in a series of patients under 45 with an ischemic stroke and to compare them with a series of controls of the same age.
Material and method: This case-control study was conducted in the Department of Neurology and Department of Biochemistry of BSMMU, Dhaka, between the period of July 2007 and June 2009 for duration of two years. A total number of 50 patients presented with recent ischemic stroke and 50 control person were enrolled in this study. All patients of both sexes, aged between 15 to 45 years presented with ischemic stroke, from 0 day to 1 month that was confirmed by CT scan of head/MRI of brain. Vascular risk factors were recorded and blood sample was collected from the cases and the controls and analyzed at the Dept. of Biochemistry, BSMMU for estimation of serum fasting lipid profile.
Result: Multivariate analyses showed that other than serum lipids- family history of dyslipidaemia, family history of stroke or TIA, history of HTN and smoking habit are found significant risks for stroke in young adult.
Conclusion: The present study does not confirm the role of serum lipids as risk factors for ischemic stroke in young adult. Other than serum lipids- family history of dyslipidaemia, family history of stroke or TIA, history of HTN and smoking habit are found significant risks for stroke in young adult.

Sarcopenia, A Booming Concern of Ageing World: A Review
Authors: Rahman Md Shahidur 
Published: January 2022

Sarcopenia is a syndrome characterized by progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength with a risk of adverse outcomes such as physical disability, poor quality of life and death. With the onset of advancing age, muscle tissue is gradually lost, resulting in diminished mass and strength, a condition referred to as sarcopenia. The sequelae of sarcopenia often contribute to frailty, decreased independence, and subsequently increased health care costs. This review article will introduce potential mechanisms that may contribute to sarcopenia, although no one mechanism has yet, and may not completely, define this process. Despite sarcopenia is an inevitable process of life, prevention and treatments are absolutely needed in order to improve the quality of life and quality adjusted life years. Adequate nutrition and structured exercises are essential components of treatment and prevention. However, even those individuals who maintain their fitness through exercise do not appear to be immune to sarcopenia.

To investigate the effect of graded level of acetic acid on the production performance and carcass characteristics of broiler, present study was conducted for a period of 35 days in a controlled shed. A total of 240 Cobb 500 day old broiler chicks were divided into four dietary treatment groups (T0, T1, T2 and T3), each group with three replications and each replication having 20 birds. Control group (T0) birds were fed with the basal diet without any acetic acid. Birds of T1, T2 and T3 group were treated with 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3% acetic acid in drinking water, respectively along with basal diets. Recorded data were analysed in SPSS software by using ANOVA and significance level was considered as 5%. Results showed that, acetic acid has significantly (P<0.05) improved live weight, live weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR) and some meat characteristics (carcass weight, thigh weight and breast weight) of experimental broilers. However, there were no significant (P>0.05) differences were observed between control group and acetic acid treated groups of birds in terms of feed intake, dressing percentage, liver weight, heart weight and abdominal fat. Net profit was higher in birds treated with acetic acid than the control group and the best performances were observed in the birds treated with 0.3% acetic acid.
