Blood gas analysis was performed hourly, revealing a slow decrease of sodium to a minimum of 143 mmol/l (Figure 1), decreasing by an average of 0.5 mmol/l per hour.
DWI:bilateral diffusion impairment in the basal ganglia, corpus callosum, and subcortical regions with slightly dilated lateral ventricles.

MRI of the head showed vague, nonischemic diffusion impairment in the basal ganglia, corpus callosum, and subcortical regions on both sides (Figure 2), with only discrete signal modulation in the T2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence (Figure 3).
T2-FLAIR:discrete signal modulation in the corresponding T2-FLAIR sequence.
