77. Painful Brachial Plexopathies in SEPT9Mutations Adverse Outcome Related to Comorbid States

Author

Hoque, Romy, Schwendimann, Robert N, Kelley, Roger E, Bien-Willner, Ricardo, and Sivakumar, Kumaraswamy

Abstract

Hereditary neuralgic amyotrophy (HNA), an autosomal dominant disorder associated with SEPT9mutation located on chromosome 17q25, causes recurrent painful weakness with sensory disturbances in a brachial distribution. We present electrophysiological, clinical phenotype, and molecular genetic data of three members from a family with HNA with the C262T SEPT9mutation. The degree of motor weakness and recovery is variable within this family. Severity and recovery from motor deficits may have been a function of comorbid medical conditions. To our knowledge, this is the first report to confirm SEPT9mutation in a family with suspected HNA.

80. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Device Time to Procurement in a Disadvantaged Population

Author

M. DelRosso, Lourdes, Hoque, Romy, and L. Chesson, Andrew

Abstract

Introduction. The management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients who cannot afford a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device is challenging. In this study we compare time to CPAP procurement in three groups of patients diagnosed with OSA: uninsured subsidized by a humanitarian grant (Group 1), uninsured unsubsidized (Group 2), and those with Medicare or Medicaid (Group 3). We evaluate follow-up and adherence in Group 1. We hypothesize that additional factors, rather than just the ability to obtain CPAP, may uniquely affect follow-up and adherence in uninsured patients. Methods. 30 patients were in Groups 1 and 2, respectively. 12 patients were in Group 3. Time of CPAP procurement from OSA diagnosis to CPAP initiation was assessed in all groups. CPAP adherence data was collected for Group 1 patients at 1, 3, 6, and 9 months. Results. There were no significant differences between groups in gender, age, body mass index, or apnea hypopnea index. The mean time to procurement in Group 1 was shorter compared to Group 2 but not significant. Compared to both Group 1 and Group 2, Group 3 patients had significantly shorter times to device procurement. Conclusion. Time to procurement of CPAP was significantly shorter in those with Medicaid/Medicare insurance compared to the uninsured.

81. Manual Characterization of Sleep Spindle Index in Patients with Narcolepsy and Idiopathic Hypersomnia

Author

M. DelRosso, Lourdes, L. Chesson, Andrew, and Hoque, Romy

Abstract

This is a retrospective review of PSG data from 8 narcolepsy patients and 8 idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) patients, evaluating electrophysiologic differences between these two central hypersomnias. Spindles were identified according to the AASM Manual for the Scoring of Sleep and Associated Events; and counted per epoch in the first 50 epochs of N2 sleep and the last 50 epochs of N2 sleep in each patient’s PSG. Spindle count data (mean ± standard deviation) per 30 second-epoch (spindle index) in the 8 narcolepsy patients was as follows: 0.37 ± 0.73 for the first 50 epochs of N2; 0.65 ± 1.09 for the last 50 epochs of N2; and 0.51 ± 0.93 for all 100 epochs of N2. Spindle index data in the 8 IH patients was as follows: 2.31 ± 2.23 for the first 50 epochs of N2; 2.84 ± 2.43 for the last 50 epochs of N2; and 2.57 ± 2.35 for all 100 epochs of N2. Intergroup differences in spindle count in the first 50 N2 epochs, the last 50 N2 epochs, and all 100 epochs of scored N2 were significant (P<0.01) as were the intragroup differences between the first 50 N2 epochs and the last 50 N2 epochs.

Abstract

Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic granulomatous disease, which uncommonly affects nervous system. However, when present, it may affect both central and peripheral nervous systems and potentially mimics other chronic diseases of the nervous system. Pathogenesis of neurosarcoidosis remains largely unknown, and its diagnosis and management pose serious challenges to clinicians. Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment of neurosarcoidosis are necessary to produce satisfactory clinical outcomes. This review discusses clinical manifestations, current diagnostic studies, and currently available modalities for management of neurosarcoidosis.
