Opsoclonus in Pediatric Patients: Differential Diagnosis and a Practical Approach to Evaluation
ABSTRACT Opsoclonus is an ocular dyskinesia characterized by involuntary, arrhythmic, multidirectional saccades. In pediatrics, opsoclonus is most commonly attributed to the rare neuroinflammatory disorder opsoclonus‐myoclonus‐ataxia syndrome (OMAS), typically considered a paraneoplastic syndrome associated with neural crest tumors. However, opsoclonus

β‐Hydroxybutyrate reduces neuronal excitability via GIRK channels
β‐Hydroxybutyrate decreases neuronal excitability by activating GIRK channels through HCAR2 signaling, providing a cellular mechanism that may contribute to the antiseizure effects of the ketogenic diet. Abstract Objective The ketogenic diet is used to treat drug‐resistant epilepsy, yet the molecular mechanisms coupling metabolic state to seizure ...

CSF concentrations of cAMP and cGMP are lower in patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease but not Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. [PDF]
The cyclic nucleotides cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) are important second messengers and are potential biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and ...
