Abstract
Adverse events occurring after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination have been reported and are the subject of ongoing research. We present the case of a young woman with fully reversible radiculomyelitis, which happened after the first dose of the ChAdOx1 nCOVID-19 vaccine. A previously healthy woman in her 20s presented with a subacute onset of legs’ weakness and sensory disturbances, urinary dysfunction and cramping pain after receiving the first dose of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine. A diagnostic workup led to the diagnosis of inflammatory radiculomyelitis. Her clinical status improved, with complete recovery after a few months. The case described a reversible radiculomyelitis associated with the ChAdOx1 nCOVID-19 vaccine. The clinical picture and evolution supported the diagnosis. No other identifiable causes of myelopathy were found. Our patient showed clinically moderate symptoms and signs, showing good recovery. The post-vaccine inflammatory radiculomyelitis is a rare side effect of the anti-COVID-19 vaccination, and it should not discourage the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination programme.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the aetiology of acute-onset binocular diplopia (AOBD) in neurological units and identify the key diagnostic procedures in this setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS Clinico-demographic data from patients hospitalized for AOBD from 2008 to 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. AOBD due to an underlying neurological disorder known to cause diplopia was addressed as secondary diplopia. Ophthalmoparesis plus was defined when subtle neurological signs/symptoms other than ophthalmoparesis were detected during neurological examination. RESULTS A total of 171 patients (mean age 57.6 years) were included in the study. A total of 89 subjects (52%) had an oculomotor disturbance consistent with sixth nerve palsy, and 42 (24.6%) showed multiple oculomotor nerve involvement. The most common cause of AOBD was presumed to be microvascular in 56 patients (32.7%), while a secondary aetiology was identified in 102 (59.6%). Ophthalmoparesis plus and multiple oculomotor nerve involvement significantly predicted a secondary aetiology in multivariable logistic regression analysis. Brain CT was never diagnostic in isolated ophthalmoparesis. A combination of neuroimaging examinations established AOBD diagnosis in 54.9% of subjects, whereas rachicentesis and neurophysiological examinations were found to be performant in the remaining cases. CONCLUSIONS AOBD may herald insidious neurological disease, and an extensive diagnostic workup is often needed to establish a diagnosis. Neurological examination was pivotal in identifying patients at higher risk of secondary aetiology. Even in cases of apparently benign presentation, a serious underlying disease cannot be excluded. Brain MRI was found to perform well in all clinical scenarios, and it should be always considered when managing AOBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In randomized controlled trials, add-on brivaracetam (BRV) reduced seizure frequency in patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. Studies performed in a naturalistic setting are a useful complement to characterize the drug profile. OBJECTIVE This multicentre study assessed the effectiveness and tolerability of adjunctive BRV in a large population of patients with focal epilepsy in the context of real-world clinical practice. METHODS The BRIVAFIRST (BRIVAracetam add-on First Italian netwoRk STudy) was a retrospective, multicentre study including adult patients prescribed adjunctive BRV. Patients with focal epilepsy and 12-month follow-up were considered. Main outcomes included the rates of seizure-freedom, seizure response (≥ 50% reduction in baseline seizure frequency), and treatment discontinuation. The incidence of adverse events (AEs) was also considered. Analyses by levetiracetam (LEV) status and concomitant use of strong enzyme-inducing antiseizure medications (EiASMs) and sodium channel blockers (SCBs) were performed. RESULTS A total of 1029 patients with a median age of 45 years (33-56) was included. At 12 months, 169 (16.4%) patients were seizure-free and 383 (37.2%) were seizure responders. The rate of seizure freedom was 22.3% in LEV-naive patients, 7.1% in patients with prior LEV use and discontinuation due to insufficient efficacy, and 31.2% in patients with prior LEV use and discontinuation due to AEs (p < 0.001); the corresponding values for ≥ 50% seizure frequency reduction were 47.9%, 29.7%, and 42.8% (p < 0.001). There were no statistically significant differences in seizure freedom and seizure response rates by use of strong EiASMs. The rates of seizure freedom (20.0% vs. 16.6%; p = 0.341) and seizure response (39.7% vs. 26.9%; p = 0.006) were higher in patients receiving SCBs than those not receiving SCBs; 265 (25.8%) patients discontinued BRV. AEs were reported by 30.1% of patients, and were less common in patients treated with BRV and concomitant SCBs than those not treated with SCBs (28.9% vs. 39.8%; p = 0.017). CONCLUSION The BRIVAFIRST provided real-world evidence on the effectiveness of BRV in patients with focal epilepsy irrespective of LEV history and concomitant ASMs, and suggested favourable therapeutic combinations.

Abstract
PURPOSE Seizures are common in autoimmune encephalitis (AE), and an extensive work-up is required to exclude alternative etiologies. The aim of our study was to identify possible clinical/EEG peculiarities suggesting the immune-mediated origin of late-onset seizures. METHODS Thirty patients diagnosed with AE (19 men, median age 68 years, 18 seronegative) were included. Overall 212 video-electroencephalographic (EEG) and 31 24-h ambulatory EEG (AEEG) recordings were retrospectively reviewed. Posterior dominant rhythm, interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs), clinical (CSs) and subclinical seizures (SCSs) were analyzed. RESULTS Six-hundred-nineteen ictal events were recorded in 19/30 subjects, mostly (568/619) during AE acute stage. Among ten patients with CSs other than faciobrachial dystonic seizures, 7 showed prominent autonomic and emotional manifestations. SCSs were detected in 11 subjects, mainly via AEEG (260/287 SCSs vs 150/332 CSs, p < 0.001). Eight patients presented seizures during hyperventilation. IEDs, documented in 21 cases, were bilateral in 14 and focal temporal in 13. Multiple ictal EEG patterns were detected in 9/19 patients, 6 of whom had both CSs and SCSs, bilateral asynchronous seizures and ictal activities arising from temporal and extra-temporal regions. No correlation was found between the lateralization of MRI alterations and that of EEG findings. CONCLUSION Our study confirms that adult-onset, high frequency focal seizures with prominent autonomic and emotional manifestations should be investigated for AE. Multiple ictal EEG patterns could represent a 'red flag', reflecting a widespread neuronal excitability related to the underlying immune-mediated process. Finally, our work enhances the crucial role of long-lasting EEG monitoring in revealing subclinical and relapsing seizures.
