<p>It's a podcast of pairs this time, for the latest issue of the journal. There's two hosts, two halves of the brain, two sides to a clinical debate, and two themes to the episode itself. Leading off is a discussion on peripheral neurology, taking a look at the editors' choice paper on immune checkpoint inhibitors. That's followed by a paper on  secondary hypertension, and another on small fibre neuropathies. The second half covers elements of cognitive neurology, including a topic with increasing awareness - that of brain fog. There's the dramatically named STOP-BANG questionnaire, a notable appearance from a monkey, and a reflection on modern practices for cognitive assessment.</p> <p>Read the issue: <a href='https://pn.bmj.com/content/25/2/101'>https://pn.bmj.com/content/25/2/101</a></p> <p>Listen to Dr. Laura McWhirter on the JNNP podcast: <a href='https://jnnpbmj.podbean.com/e/brain-fog-demystified/'>Brain fog demystified</a></p> <p>Please subscribe to the Practical Neurology pod...
