Genetic Profile and Symptom Pattern Explain Variability of Deep Brain Stimulation Effect in Dystonia
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Bilateral globus pallidus pars interna deep brain stimulation (GPi‐DBS) is a recognized and effective treatment option for drug‐resistant dystonia patients. However, the clinical GPi‐DBS outcomes vary significantly. Herein, we explored the pre‐implant factors affecting GPi‐DBS effectiveness.

The Diagnostic Value of Visual Evoked Potentials in Chronic Disorders of Consciousness
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective In chronic disorders of consciousness (DOCs), the distinction between vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (VS/UWS) and minimally conscious state (MCS) is as crucial as it is challenging. Evoked potentials (EPs) and event‐related potentials (ERPs) are helpful, but some limitations prevent their consistent use in the ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Reliable biomarkers are essential for tracking disease progression and advancing treatments for multiple system atrophy (MSA). In this study, we propose the MSA Atrophy Index (MSA‐AI), a novel composite volumetric measure to distinguish MSA from related disorders and monitor disease progression. Methods Seventeen participants with an

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The cervical spinal cord (cSC) is highly relevant to clinical dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) but remains understudied using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We assessed magnetization transfer ratio (MTR), a semi‐quantitative MRI measure sensitive to MS‐related tissue microstructural changes, in the cSC and its ...

Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Astrocytopathy Based on a Two‐Center Chinese Cohort Study
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy (GFAP‐A) is a recently defined nosological form belonging to the class of autoimmune inflammatory disorders affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we report the clinical and MRI characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of a GFAP‐A cohort from two centers in China.
