CLINICAL NEUROLOGYIt goes without saying that the words ‘anorak’ and ‘neurologist’ should never appear in close proximity—but we do like our diseases to behave in an orderly and seemly fashion. The correct clinical pace is important: progression over minutes to hours for strokes, days to weeks for inflammation and infection, weeks to months for tumours, months to years for neurodegeneration. Transgressing these rules is neither welcome nor helpful diagnostically (nor, sadly, rare).
