Ptosis in pediatrics is commonly attributed to neurological causes. Rarely, chronic inflammation of the upper eyelid and the formation of giant papillary conjunctivitis due to vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) may lead to ptosis. In this case report, we present an eight-year-old girl with ...
The most challenging complications, however, usually manifest in a chronic-progressive manner, where cognitive deterioration, sometimes with the development of dementia syndromes, is present in up to 80% of cases [8]. The main causes are considered to be radiation-induced cytotoxic effects with tiss...

of anticholinergic syndrome. The central (CAS) form is most often manifested by agitation, which can evolve into hyperactive delirium. Hypoactive or mixed forms are much less common, and causes of delirium other than cholinergic blockade should be considered. Other symptoms of the central form ...
Total paralysis leads to ptosis, dilatation of the pupil, displacement of the eye outward and downward, and impairment of adduction and elevation. The trochlear nerve innervates the superior oblique muscle. Isolated dysfunction of the nerve causes the eye to deviate upwards and outwards often ...
Many clinical and animal studies have revealed the dual roles of TRAIL in which it causes damage by inducing cell apoptosis, and confers protection by enhancing both proand non゛poptosis effects in different neurological disorders and at different sites or stages. Its pro゛poptotic effect produces...

According to many reports and studies, the newly emerging SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 is associated with neurological complications. These complications could impact both the central and peripheral nervous systems. The neurological manifestations could be non-specific such as headache, altered...
