Benign intracranial hypertension following corticosteroid withdrawal in childhood.

In an 18-month period seven children who were treated for a variety of neurological and non-neurological diseases, and in whom the corticosteroid or corticotrophin dosage was reduced, developed a syndrome indistinguishable from "benign intracranial hypertension." The total duration and rate of reduction of corticosteroid dosage and perhaps an underlying susceptibility to cerebral oedema appear to be important factors in this syndrome. Usually patients can be treated without the need for special neuroradiological studies. Possibly mild forms of this condition are not uncommon, but its pathogenesis is still uncertain.

Controlled trial of hydroxocobalamin and riboflavine in Nigerian ataxic neuropathy.

The results are presented of a double-blind therapeutic trial of hydroxocobalamin and riboflavine in Nigerian patients suffering from a degenerative neuropathy. Although no benefit from either vitamin was demonstrated, this may reflect the inadequacy of the dosages used. The results are discussed in relation to the hypothesis that dietary cyanide and cyanogens are responsible, at least in part, for the occurrence of this disease in a malnourished population.
