      Paper of the Month

      One hot topic, one expert, three questions: Kristian Steen Frederiksen on our May 2023 Paper of the Month

      May 16, 2023

      Executive Page Dear EAN members, dear friends, It is my pleasure to give you an update on behalf of the EAN Scientific Committee following a busy year since my appointment as chair. It has been a privilege to be so deeply involved in the scientific activities of the EAN and to work closely with an amazing community of people who are so dedicated to the advancement of neurology. One of the strongest threads within that community is the EAN’s group of Scientific Panels, which are often referred to as the organisation’s ‘scientific backbone’. The panels have a hand in everything the EAN does from a scientific point of view, including coordinating clinical research, disseminating good practice, assisting in planning the EAN annual congress, supporting the EAN’s educational efforts, and producing guidelines that assist neurologists in daily practice. All of this work requires a considerable amount of oversight, and this is why each panel is run by its own Management Group, elected by the panel members. Being a part of one of these Management Groups (PDF) is an opportunity to play a direct part in determining the direction of scientific progress within Europe, and I am excited to say that the call for applications to stand for election will be announced in September. All panel members and EAN individual members are eligible to apply to be candidates, with the vote being held among the existing panel members in autumn. I would like to urge every neurologist with a passion for the scientific future of their special area of interest to consider standing for election to the relevant Management Group and to look out for the call for applications later this month. I can tell you from personal experience that fulfilling a role such as this within the structure of the EAN is a fascinating and extremely rewarding experience. The chance to take on such a unique leadership position should not be missed! The most satisfying aspect of being involved in the EAN’s organisational structure is surely seeing all the hard work and planning come to fruition when a small idea evolves into a newly launched project. One such example is the 1st EAN Science School, taking place in Salzburg next March. The idea of the Science School is to offer early career neurologists with an interest in translational research a new avenue for learning about basic pathomechanisms of neurological disorders. Application for this very first edition, on ‘Pathophysiology of disorders of the nervous system’, closed last week and we have been delighted with the level of interest. It was a pleasure to be part of the task force in charge of planning this new project and I look forward to seeing it officially transferred to the hands of the Scientific Committee after a successful event and evaluation in spring. Of our ongoing activities, one of the most significant is the EAN Neuro-covid Registry, which aims to collate epidemiological data on neurological manifestations in patients with COVID-19 infection reported by neurologists in outpatient services, emergency rooms, and hospital departments. We currently have 1,542 patients entered in the database, from 35 centres across 23 countries. So far, 29 patients have been followed for 12 months and 387 have completed the 6-months follow up. This is a decent start, but I would like to strongly encourage EAN members and their institutions to get involved and contribute cases to what will become an invaluable resource for neurologists and clinicians to improve care for Covid-19 patients. Finally, I would like share a word on a forthcoming collaboration between EAN and the Human Brain Project in December, that I think will interest a lot of EAN members. The EAN-EBRAINS joint workshop on ‘The future of medical data sharing in clinical neurosciences’ will be a three-day virtual event that aims to discuss issues and challenges associated with data sharing in Europe, from ethics to data safety and privacy, including those specific to data federation, such as the development and validation of federated algorithms. The whole workshop is completely free of charge and registration is open until 25 November, so please check out the details and sign up! I wish you all a healthy and pleasant autumn and I look forward to updating you again. Best wishes Thomas Berger Chair of the EAN Scientific Committee

Being a part of one of these Management Groups (PDF) is an opportunity to play a direct part in determining the direction of scientific progress within Europe, and I am excited to say that the call for applications to stand for election will be announced in September. All panel members and EAN individual members are eligible to apply to be candidates, with the vote being held among the existing panel members in autumn. I would like to urge every neurologist with a passion for the scientific future of their special area of interest to consider standing for election to the relevant Management Group and to look out for the call for applications later this month. I can tell you from personal experience that fulfilling a role such as this within the structure of the EAN is a fascinating and extremely rewarding experience. The chance to take on such a unique leadership position should not be missed! The most satisfying aspect of being involved in the EAN’s organisational structure is surely seeing all the hard work and planning come to fruition when a small idea evolves into a newly launched project. One such example is the 1st EAN Science School, taking place in Salzburg next March. The idea of the Science School is to offer early career neurologists with an interest in translational research a new avenue for learning about basic pathomechanisms of neurological disorders. Application for this very first edition, on ‘Pathophysiology of disorders of the nervous system’, closed last week and we have been delighted with the level of interest. It was a pleasure to be part of the task force in charge of planning this new project and I look forward to seeing it officially transferred to the hands of the Scientific Committee after a successful event and evaluation in spring. Of our ongoing activities, one of the most significant is the EAN Neuro-covid Registry, which aims to collate epidemiological data on neurological manifestations in patients with COVID-19 infection reported by neurologists in outpatient services, emergency rooms, and hospital departments. We currently have 1,542 patients entered in the database, from 35 centres across 23 countries. So far, 29 patients have been followed for 12 months and 387 have completed the 6-months follow up. This is a decent start, but I would like to strongly encourage EAN members and their institutions to get involved and contribute cases to what will become an invaluable resource for neurologists and clinicians to improve care for Covid-19 patients. Finally, I would like share a word on a forthcoming collaboration between EAN and the Human Brain Project in December, that I think will interest a lot of EAN members. The EAN-EBRAINS joint workshop on ‘The future of medical data sharing in clinical neurosciences’ will be a three-day virtual event that aims to discuss issues and challenges associated with data sharing in Europe, from ethics to data safety and privacy, including those specific to data federation, such as the development and validation of federated algorithms. The whole workshop is completely free of charge and registration is open until 25 November, so please check out the details and sign up! I wish you all a healthy and pleasant autumn and I look forward to updating you again. Best wishes Thomas Berger Chair of the EAN Scientific Committee

Country of the Month: Estonia

July 6, 2020

Estonia is a small country in Northeastern Europe, the northernmost of the three Baltic states.  It is a Baltic-Nordic country with a territory of over 45,000 km2 of land and has a population of about 1.3 million. Estonia has a long, shallow coastline along the Baltic Sea, with over 2,000 islands dotting the shore. 52% of the country is forest, making it one of Europe’s greenest countries. Estonia is one of Europe’s least crowded countries, with a population density of 28.4 people per square kilometre. Besides ethnic Estonians, Estonia has about one-third foreign-born residents (mainly Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, and Finns).

Estonia has been dominated by foreign powers (Danish, German, Swedish, Russian) through much of its history, but on February 24, 1918, Estonia was declared independent. The country was briefly occupied by German forces in 1918 and thereafter attacked by Soviet Russia, but as a result of the Estonian War of Independence, Russia was forced to recognise the independent Estonia on February 2, 1920. Since then, Estonia has been a democratic parliamentary republic, even though both the Soviets and the Nazis occupied it at different periods from the 1940s to 1991. The events that led to the restoration of Estonian independence from the Soviet Union in 1991 are commonly referred to as the Singing Revolution. The term was coined following a series of mass demonstrations during which Estonians sang national songs and patriotic hymns that were strictly forbidden.

Estonia’s capital, Tallinn, is the oldest capital city in Northern Europe, first appearing on a map in 1154. Today, the city and adjacent area called Toompea, or Cathedral Hill, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Toompea Castle is the centre of government and the Riigikogu (parliament). Tallinn is sometimes dubbed the Silicon Valley of Europe and has the continent’s highest number of start-ups per head of population. Estonia has another World Heritage site, too, the Struve Geodetic Arc, a chain of survey triangulations stretching from Hammerfest in Norway to the Black Sea, which yielded the first accurate measurement of a meridian.

Tartu, the second largest city of Estonia, is often considered the intellectual centre of the country, especially since it is home to the nation’s oldest university, the University of Tartu which was founded in 1632.  It is the only university providing higher medical education in the country. The University of Tartu has a reputation for high quality research and studies and is in the top 1.2% of world’s best universities, according to  the QS World University Rankings 2020. It is the highest ranked university in the Baltics. Today, Estonia has a distinctive and strong Nordic style. It is a modern, thriving, developed country where internet access is considered a constitutional right. It was the first country in the world to adopt online voting (first as a pilot project in 2005, and then used for general elections since 2007). Being part of the European Union, Estonia boasts a strong Euro-based economy and high employment. It is a country of unsurpassed natural beauty and rich cultural heritage.

Estonian untouched nature – a bog in South Estonia

The health system and medical/neurological educational training in Estonia, the history, structure and names of the active members in international level of Estonian Society of Neurologists and Neurosurgeons were described in EAN Pages Country of the month in June 6, 2016 (https://www.eanpages.org/2016/06/06/country-of-the-month-estonia/). Since then, in April 2018, Professor of Neurosurgery Toomas Asser, who since 1996 had been the Head of the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery of the Institute of Clinical Medicine, was elected as the University’s Rector.

As this autumn Estonian neurology celebrates its centennial anniversary, we would like to draw special attention to its history and current situation. The beginning of the development of Estonian neurology and neurosurgery including the Estonian Ludvig Puusepp Society of Neurologists and Neurosurgeons (ENNS), founded on November 26, 1922, goes back to the first independence period. The history starts with founding of the Hospital of Nervous Diseases of the University of Tartu in 1920, by Professor Ludvig Puusepp. After his Professorship at the St Petersburg Psycho-Neurological Institute (now V.M. Bekhterev Research Psychoneurological Institute), where he laid the cornerstones for Russian neurosurgery, and established himself as a remarkable pioneer in this new surgical subspeciality, Ludvig Puusepp came to Estonia and founded a department where both neurological and neurosurgical patients were treated, a model that still functions in the modern era in Estonia.

Nowadays, there are six main regional neurological centers in Estonia: Tartu University Hospital, North Estonia Medical Centre, East Tallinn Central Hospital, West Tallinn Central Hospital, East-Viru Central Hospital and Pärnu Hospital which together cover the needs of neurological patients in Estonia. The regional hospitals of Estonia consult and provide neurological advice around the clock to clinics and smaller general hospitals which provide health services in that region. Patients needing emergency treatment or specialised care are admitted directly to regional hospitals. A nationwide digital electronic health record database enables quick access to patient’s medical records and prescriptions by doctors, as well as to the patient, who can log into the Patient Portal with an electronic ID Card. A nationwide radiological database is a useful resource for doctors.

Tartu University Hospital is called the flagship of Estonian medicine. It is the largest provider of medical care in Estonia, covering all the specialties available in the country (including high-tech procedures). It is the only university teaching hospital in Estonia, and thus a national reference centre for health and biomedical sciences.

Tartu University Hospital

The Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery of Tartu University Hospital includes the departments of neurology and neurosurgery. Its work is tightly connected with the work of the Faculty of Medicine, as neurologists working in the department are also faculty members. Over half hold a PhD in the medical sciences, they are involved in teaching students and residents, conducting continuing education courses in neurology and participating in various research projects. The Stroke Centre participates in several local and multicentre academic research projects. The department was chosen as one of the  top centres in SITS (Safe Implementation of Treatments in Stroke) in 2018 and 2019 and has achieved the level of ESO Angels Awards Platinum Status. Electroencephalography (EEG), sleep-EEG and video-EEG monitoring, as well as electroneuromyography (ENMG), and muscle biopsies are performed by neurophysiologists. Treatment options in advanced Parkinson’s disease include subcutaneous apomorphine, intestinal levodopa gel infusions and deep brain stimulation. Close multidisciplinary teamwork is carried out together with geneticists and paediatric neurologists, and also with physiotherapists, speech therapists, clinical psychologists and social workers in the course of patient’s care plan. There are specialised outpatient clinics for headache, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, movement disorders, Parkinson’s disease, and memory disorders, and in addition, separate outpatient nurses for headache, stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and bladder disorders.

The Neurology Centre of the North Estonia Medical Centre is the biggest regional hospital in North Estonia. It is also one of the top health care providers in the country. Stroke patients constitute the largest group of patients treated. Reperfusion therapies (both intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy) are performed. The Neurology Centre is also a part of the world-leading stroke Network, SITS, and also achieved the level of ESO Angels Awards Platinum Status in 2017 and 2018. In the Department of Neurophysiology, EEG monitorings and ENMG are performed. As the centre has lõng  experience as a referral centre, doctors are often asked to consult patients for a second opinion.

The East Tallinn Central Hospital’s Department of Neurology is the youngest in Estonia in terms of the average age of neurologists and their enthusiastic way of thinking. They also carry out a large number of scientific projects. The department provides excellent diagnostics and treatment options for a diverse range of neurological disorders. Multidisciplinary management of acute stroke is provided, as well as treatment of autoimmune disorders, epilepsy, neurodegenerative diseases, neuroinfections and neuromuscular disorders.

The hospital has achieved the level of ESO Angels Awards Diamond status in 2019. One of the main activities of the department is the management of Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders, with cutting edge competencies in transcranial ultrasound to assess substantia nigra hyperechogenicity and nuclear medicine neuroimaging for diagnostic workup, and delivery of non-oral therapies of levodopa/carbidopa intestinal gel and apomorphine infusion for treatment of Parkinson’s disease. The largest team of clinical neurophysiologists works in the East Tallinn Central Hospital. Also, the hospital provides intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring for spinal surgery. The hospital is also one of the main multiple sclerosis competence centers in Estonia. Neurologists keep their fingers on the pulse with weekly discussions of cases and a monthly journal club.

The Neurology Clinic of the West Tallinn Central Hospital comprises inpatient departments: the multiple sclerosis centre and stroke centre but all kinds of other neurological diseases, including rare and autoimmune diseases, are also diagnosed and treated. The Multiple Sclerosis Centre has the highest competence in demyelinating disorders in Estonia with the purpose to better the lives of neurology patients from the first suspicion of disease to diagnosis and follow up rehabilitation using modern diagnostics and active treatment. The stroke centre treats emergency patients with neurological diseases using modern intensive care principles. In addition to doctors, the stroke centre team includes physiotherapists, speech therapists, psychologists, social workers and nurses.

The Neurology department of the East-Viru Central Hospital is a part of the Internal Medicine Clinic. It uses the intensive care unit as a stroke unit. Thrombolysis and thrombectomy are readily available (the latter is performed in Tartu University Hospital). The hospital is equipped with all investigation modalities that a modern neurological department needs. There is currently a regional stroke project in progress and stroke nurses in training. There is a long-standing tradition of academic cooperation between the East-Viru Central Hospital and the  Tartu University Clinic, including activities such as video lectures and visits of consultant specialists. Also, the East-Viru Central Hospital is a teaching hospital for neurologists in training starting from 2020.

The Neurology unit of the Pärnu Hospital has its service area in the Western Estonia. The Neurology unit is located in the Internal Disease Department and also has intensive care beds. There is also an out-patient clinic and 24 hour on-call neurologists. The Hospital has  access to EEG and ENMG for neurological evaluation of patients and performs CT and MRI scans. Patients who need neurosurgical treatment are appointed directly to the North Estonia Medical Centre, whilst preoperative preparation and postoperative care is provided in Pärnu. Also, team rehabiliation services are provided.

ENNS is a covering institution providing contact with legal authorities and co-ordinating work between different neurological sub-societies (the Estonian Stroke Inititiative, the Estonian Movement Disorders Society, the Estonian League Against Epilepsy, The Autoimmune Diseases Group, the Estonian Headache Society, the Estonian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology). It also organises regular national congresses and conferences of Estonian neurologists to apply new neurological guidelines and treatment methods, and present different neurological cases. Collective participation at conferences (and other scientific events) is organised in other Baltic countries and allowing applications for reimbursement.

Today, neurologists working in Estonia are highly qualified. In everyday practice, they are directed by contemporary European and Estonian guidelines, regularly attend international conferences and have articles published in key peer-reviewed scientific journals. We are proud of the 102 year history of our Republic of Estonia as well as our 100 year history of neurology in Estonia, as we continue to contribute to clinical practice and neuroscience.
