Natural Anti-NMDAR1 autoantibodies associate with slowed decline of cognitive functions in Alzheimer’s diseases

Translational Psychiatry
Low titers of blood circulating natural anti-NMDAR1 autoantibodies were reported in ~10% of the general human population. Their potential effects on NMDAR functions in the brain, however, remain unknown.

Claustrum Involvement in New Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus: A Systematic Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The claustrum sign is a distinctive neuroimaging finding characterized by bilateral T2/FLAIR hyperintensity of the claustrum, one of the most interconnected regions of the human brain. It was first described in new‐onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) and febrile infection–related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES).
