Cerebrospinal Fluid Over Plasma Links Analytes to Cognitive Decline in Older Adults at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To identify inflammatory analytes in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma associated with cognitive decline in cognitively normal (CN) older adults at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods In a longitudinal study of 118 CN older adults (65–80 years, 54% APOE ε4, 26% preclinical AD), 1331 CSF and 1501 plasma analytes were ...

Introducing polyautoimmunity: secondary autoimmune diseases no longer exist

open access: yes, 2012
Similar pathophysiological mechanisms within autoimmune diseases have stimulated searches for common genetic roots. Polyautoimmunity is defined as the presence of more than one autoimmune disease in a single patient.

Autoimmune Diseases Associated with Epilepsy

open access: yes, 2016
WOS: 000370637700009Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) during the course of systemic autoimmune diseases is not rare. Connective tissue disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis, Behcet's disease ...

Early Clinical and Cerebrospinal Fluid Predictors of 1‐Year Recurrence in Autoimmune GFAP Astrocytopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy (GFAP‐A) is an inflammatory central nervous system disorder with variable outcomes. Relapse occurs in a subset of patients, but early predictors remain unclear. We aimed to identify admission‐available features associated with 1‐year recurrence and develop an interpretable ...

Ofatumumab Therapy and Long‐Term Seizure Outcomes of Patients With Relapsing Anti‐NMDA Receptor Encephalitis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective There is a lack of studies on seizure outcomes associated with ofatumumab therapy in patients for relapsing anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis. We aimed to evaluate long‐term seizure outcomes of ofatumumab therapy for relapsing anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis.

Copine‐4 Paraneoplastic Autoimmune Encephalitis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We characterize copine‐4 (CPNE4)‐IgG and report clinical associations. Among 844 samples with unclassified neural IgGs identified by mouse‐brain indirect immunofluorescence assay over 2 years, 5 samples (serum, 3; CSF, 2) from 3 patients produced a distinctive cerebrum‐restricted synaptic pattern.

Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis

open access: yes, 1995
Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE) is the prototype for cell-mediated autoimmune disease in general, and is the best animal model of human CNS inflammatory demyelinating disease.

Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging of Tissue Microstructure and Early Treatment in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Conventional MRI cannot resolve the coexisting pathological processes within multiple sclerosis tissue. Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging decomposes the diffusion signal into fiber, cell, and hindered ratios indexing axonal integrity, cellularity, and extracellular space, respectively.
