A Two‐Stage Plasma Biomarker Algorithm Reduces Amyloid PET Use and the p‐Tau217 Gray Zone
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐Tau217 leaves 30%–50% of patients in an indeterminate “gray zone” often requiring Aβ‐PET. We developed GRAD (Gatekeeper‐Reflex for Alzheimer's Disease), a two‐stage Aβ‐positivity prediction model to improve classification while reserving Aβ‐PET for residual uncertainty.

Myostatin/Smad3 in Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Biomarkers of Disease Severity and Treatment Response
ABSTRACT Objective Given the role of Myostatin (MSTN) in muscle homeostasis and its modulation by current spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) therapies, we investigated serum MSTN and, for the first time, its downstream effector Smad3 as candidate non‐invasive biomarkers in SMA patients undergoing disease‐modifying therapies (DMTs).

Parkinson Disease Subtype Stability and Eventual Convergence
ABSTRACT Objective Previous research identified distinct Parkinson disease (PD) clinical subtypes of “Motor Only,” “Psychiatric & Motor,” and “Cognitive & Motor” based on comprehensive, multidomain classification. Whether these subtypes reflect distinct trajectories or progressive disease stages remains unknown.

Disentangling the Genetic Relationship Between Sleep and Epilepsy
ABSTRACT Objective A bidirectional relationship between sleep and epilepsy is well recognised, yet the biological mechanisms linking them remain poorly understood. Both have a genetic basis, with genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) capturing polygenic contributions.

Cerebrospinal Fluid GAD65‐Antibody Levels Accurately Identify Relevant Neurological Diseases
ABSTRACT Retrospective cohort study to investigate which factors most reliably distinguish incidental GAD65‐antibodies (iGAD65) from true GAD65‐antibody neurological disease (tGAD65). 167 adults with positive serum and CSF GAD65‐antibodies (> 0.02 nmol/L by radioimmunoassay) were classified as tGAD65 or iGAD65, with diagnostic performance of ...

The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.
