Development and Retrospective Application of Novel Outcome Measure: Sturge–Weber Syndrome Acute Crisis (SWAC) Index

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) symptoms frequently overlap in neurological acute crises (ACs) presenting with seizures, stroke‐like episodes (SLE), and headaches. Recent efforts to develop a prospective drug trial highlighted the need for a new outcome measure capable of quantifying these symptoms during an SWS AC.

Choroid plexus volume enlargement in first-episode antipsychotic-naïve schizophrenia

Schizophrenia
Investigation of the choroid plexus in schizophrenia has seen growing interest due to its role in the interaction between neuroinflammation and brain dysfunction. Most previous studies included treated and long-term ill patients, while antipsychotics and

Choroid plexus in developmental and evolutionary perspective

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
The blood-cerebrospinal fluid boundary is present at the level of epithelial cells of the choroid plexus. As one of the sources of the cerebrospinal fluid, the choroid plexus plays an important role during brain development and function.

Differential intensity contrast swept source optical coherence tomography for human retinal vasculature visualization [PDF]

, 2012
We demonstrate an intensity-based motion sensitive method, called differential logarithmic intensity variance (DLOGIV), for 3D microvasculature imaging and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) visualization in the in vivo human retina using swept source optical ...

Embryonic cerebrospinal fluid pressure in fetal mice in utero: External factors pressurize the intraventricular space

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous experiments inducing leakage of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggest the necessity of intraventricular CSF pressure (PCSF) for brain morphogenesis. Nevertheless, how embryonic PCSF occurs is unclear, especially in utero. Results Using a Landis water manometer, we measured PCSF in fetal mice isolated from the amniotic

Suprachoroidal and Subretinal Injections of AAV Using Transscleral Microneedles for Retinal Gene Delivery in Nonhuman Primates. [PDF]

, 2020
Retinal gene therapy using adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) is constrained by the mode of viral vector delivery. Intravitreal AAV injections are impeded by the internal limiting membrane barrier, while subretinal injections require invasive surgery and ...

Febrile status epilepticus and epileptogenesis: The FEBSTAT study

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The multicenter FEBSTAT study (Consequences of Prolonged Febrile Seizures in Childhood: https://grantome.com/grant/NIH/R37‐NS043209‐12; PI S. Shinnar) examined the outcome of febrile status epilepticus (FSE) in over 200 prospectively enrolled infants, with many followed for 10 years after FSE.

Tolerability and efficacy of chemosaturation in combination with systemic therapy for metastatic uveal melanoma

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular cancer in adults, and up to half of patients develop metastatic disease, predominantly in the liver, where prognosis remains poor despite promising treatment options. In this study, the authors evaluated the safety and efficacy of administering systemic therapy within 40 days of liver ...
