“…AWS symptoms include autonomic hyperactivity, nausea, vomiting, headache, tremors, anxiety, psychomotor agitation, and, in more severe cases, hallucinations, occupational delirium, delirium tremens, seizures, and death. It can cause irreversible neurological comorbidities, such as Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, which includes acute onset of Wernicke's encephalopathy (confusion, oculomotor disturbances, and ataxia), which, if untreated, can progress to or coexist with Korsakoff syndrome characterized by anterograde and retrograde memory deficits, limited learning ability, and impaired executive function (Popa et al, 2021). Additionally, Marchiafava-Bignami syndrome, a highly rare but rather severe condition characterized by demyelination and necrosis of the corpus callosum causing dementia, altered mental status, spasticity, dysarthria, ataxia, gait abnormalities, and seizures can also occur in malnourished chronic alcohol users, presumably due to combination of alcohol-induced neurotoxicity (with an uncertain nature) and deficiency of the B-complex vitamins (Singh and Wagh, 2022).…”
