Orbital Inflammatory Manifestations in a Patient With VEXAS (Vacuoles, E1 Enzyme, X-Linked, Autoinflammatory, Somatic) Syndrome.

An 84-year-old man with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) syndrome treated with tocilizumab reported with a 3-day history of left eye pain, conjunctival chemosis and injection, and horizontal binocular diplopia. Examination revealed restriction of left eye ductions in all directions with mild unilateral proptosis. MRI of his brain and orbits demonstrated abnormal enhancement of the left posterior sclera and intraorbital optic nerve sheath, without involvement of the extraocular muscles, cavernous sinus, or optic nerve parenchyma.

Machine learning models for decision support in epilepsy management: A critical review.

Purpose: There remain major challenges for the clinician in managing patients with epilepsy effectively. Choosing anti-seizure medications (ASMs) is subject to trial and error. About one-third of patients have drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE).
