Nationwide Survey of Atopic Myelitis and Plexin D1‐Immunoglobulin G‐Related Pain
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To elucidate the features of plexin D1‐immunoglobulin (Ig)G‐associated neuropathic pain and its relationship to atopic myelitis (AM) in a nationwide Japanese survey. Methods A preliminary survey questionnaire was sent to 1574 selected departments (neurology and pediatrics/pediatric neurology) to explore the numbers of AM and plexin ...

Towards a computational model for stimulation of the Pedunculopontine nucleus [PDF]
, 2009 The pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) has recently been suggested as a new therapeutic target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, particularly those with severe gait and postural impairment [1].

Lessons Learned: Quality Analysis of Optical Coherence Tomography in Neuromyelitis Optica
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐derived retina measurements are markers for neuroaxonal visual pathway status. High‐quality OCT scans are essential for reliable measurements, but their acquisition is particularly challenging in eyes with severe visual impairment, as often observed in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders ...

Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay in Two Half‐Siblings
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the SACS gene. We report the clinical, radiologic and neurophysiologic features of a pair of half‐siblings who presented with progressive cerebellar ataxia, peripheral neuropathy and upper motor neuron signs.

To transduce a zebra finch: interrogating behavioral mechanisms in a model system for speech. [PDF]
, 2017 The ability to alter neuronal gene expression, either to affect levels of endogenous molecules or to express exogenous ones, is a powerful tool for linking brain and behavior. Scientists continue to finesse genetic manipulation in mice.
