Upper Cervical Cord Area as a Biomarker of Conversion to Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study assessed whether upper cervical cord area (UCCA) measured on routine brain MRI can serve as a biomarker of conversion to SPMS. Methods This is a single‐center retrospective cohort study of RRMS patients with cross‐sectional and longitudinal analyses of clinical and MRI data. Future SPMS converters were matched by age, sex,

Cerebrospinal Fluid Analysis

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1992
Accurate interpretation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) changes can only be made in the context of the differential diagnosis for each case. The routine analysis of CSF cell number and type as well as CSF total protein can provide information that suggests a specific mechanism or disease, but is often inconclusive.

Distinguishing the cerebrospinal fluid cytokine profile in neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus from other autoimmune neurological diseases [PDF]

, 2015
Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) is a serious complication in SLE. Although the mechanism of NPSLE remains unclear, cytokines and chemokines are considered to be involved in their pathogenesis.

Long‐Term Neurologic Exam Findings in People Diagnosed and Treated During Acute HIV Infection

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Evaluate clinical and laboratory correlates of abnormal neurologic exam findings after acute HIV infection (AHI). Methods Participants from the RV254/SEARCH 010 cohort in Bangkok underwent standardized neurologic examinations at Weeks 0 (AHI), 12, 96, and 288 following antiretroviral therapy (ART).

Quantitative MRI Uncovers Subtle Cortical Damage in Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody‐Associated Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether myelin‐sensitive quantitative MRI reveals microstructural abnormalities in normal‐appearing cortex (NACtx) in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), indicating that conventional MRI underestimates remission residual cortical injury.
