The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Voice and Speech in Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders
Background Motor speech disorders are early, common, and functionally limiting features of atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These impairments are underrecognized and undertreated in neurology clinics.

Expanding the Genetic and Phenotypic Spectrum of DYT‐VPS16: The Importance of Splice‐Site Variants
Abstract Background DYT‐VPS16, an early‐onset isolated dystonia caused by variants in the VPS16 gene, has been reported in fewer than 70 patients. Methods We explored the clinical and genotypic spectrum of DYT‐VPS16 by investigating early‐onset dystonia patients with VPS16 variants discovered in our large Biodatabank and through gene‐matching ...

Abstract Background Functional dystonia (FD) is one of the most diagnostically challenging functional movement disorders. Phenomenological features often lack specificity, as many are also observed in idiopathic dystonia (ID) and validated biomarkers to distinguish FD from ID are currently unavailable Objective To investigate potential differences in ...

Distinct Roles of Cerebellar Afferent and Efferent Fiber Tracts in Craniocervical Dystonia
Abstract Background The cerebellum has been widely implicated in the pathogenesis of craniocervical dystonia (CCD). Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) has emerged as an effective therapy for CCD. However, the roles of cerebellar afferent and efferent pathways in CCD pathogenesis and STN‐DBS treatment remain poorly understood ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Management of overactive bladder (OAB) has a stepwise approach in adults and children. This does not account for individual patient variations, which may explain suboptimal outcomes in many patients. Distinct OAB profiles, based on patient characteristics, symptoms, urodynamic findings and imaging have been discussed in Part 1 ...

Efficacy and Safety of OnabotulinumtoxinA for the Treatment of Platysma Prominence: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Platysma prominence (PP) is a common aesthetic concern associated with aging, leading to visible neck bands and loss of jawline definition. OnabotulinumtoxinA has emerged as a minimally invasive treatment; however, data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) remain fragmented.

ABSTRACT Aims While many patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) improve by treating peripheral causes, a substantial proportion continue to experience symptoms despite apparently successful interventions. Central nervous system (CNS) mechanisms could potentially contribute to persisting symptoms after the initial peripheral cause has been ...
