Interlaboratory validation of cerebrospinal fluid α‐synuclein quantification in the diagnosis of sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease

open access: yesAlzheimer’s & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring, 2018
Introduction Cerebrospinal fluid α‐synuclein level is increased in sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease cases. However, the clinical value of this biomarker remains to be established.

Sporadic MM-1 Type Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease With Hemiballic Presentation and No Cognitive Impairment Until Death: How New NCJDRSU Diagnostic Criteria May Allow Early Diagnosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is the most common human prion disorder. Although associated with heterogeneous clinical phenotypes, its distinctive feature is the presence of a rapidly progressive multidomain cognitive impairment.

Follow-up investigations of tau protein and S-100B levels in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Background: S-100B and tau protein have a high differential diagnostic potential for the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). So far there has been only limited information available about the dynamics of these parameters in the cerebrospinal ...

Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Mimicking Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Neurology, 2003
The determination of the form of prion disease and early diagnosis are important for prognostic, public health, and epidemiologic reasons.To describe a patient with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) who had a clinical history and initial electroencephalogram and magnetic resonance imaging findings consistent with variant CJD (vCJD).Results of a

No Adaptation of the Prion Strain in a Heterozygous Case of Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
We investigated a clinical case of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease in a person heterozygous for methionine/valine at codon 129 of the prion protein gene and identified the same strain properties in variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in methionine ...

Bioassay studies support the potential for iatrogenic transmission of variant Creutzfeldt Jakob Disease through dental procedures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
<p>Background: Evidence is required to quantify the potential risks of transmission of variant Creutzfeldt Jakob (vCJD) through dental procedures. Studies, using animal models relevant to vCJD, were performed to address two questions.
