An MRI assessment of mechanisms underlying lesion growth and shrinkage in multiple sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.By applying the tensor model, we analysed lesion orientation and the directionality of lesion expansion/contraction in multiple sclerosis. Each lesion is summarized as an ellipsoid, and the tensor model is applied to calculate lesion anisotropy. From the top to the bottom white matter atlas, surface‐in gradient segmentation and venous atlas used in the

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Abstract Objectives Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is an effective treatment for Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), but recovery varies between patients. This study aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of a single and a second IVIg dose (SID) in patients with GBS.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Abstract Objective We measured clinical and quantitative MRI outcome measures in CMT1A to assess long‐term responsiveness, establish longitudinal validity and assess MRI as a bridging biomarker. Methods Twenty patients with CMT1A and 20 matched controls underwent MRI, myometry and clinical assessments up to four times over mean 4‐year follow‐up ...

ALS plasma biomarkers reveal neurofilament and pTau correlate with disease onset and progression
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Abstract Objective We performed a pilot screen to assess the utility of the NULISA™ (Nucleic‐acid‐Linked Immuno‐Sandwich Assay) platform in the identification of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) biomarkers. Methods Plasma from 86 individuals (48 ALS, 18 asymptomatic C9orf72 repeat expansion carriers (AsymC9), and 20 healthy controls) was analyzed ...

Learning from Two Decades of Blood Pressure Data: Demography-Specific Patterns Across 75 Million Patient Encounters [PDF]
arXivHypertension is a global health concern with an increasing prevalence, underscoring the need for effective monitoring and analysis of blood pressure (BP) dynamics. We analyzed a substantial BP dataset comprising 75,636,128 records from 2,054,462 unique patients collected between 2000 and 2022 at Emory Healthcare in Georgia, USA, representing a ...

Cerebral autoregulation in patients with acute lacunar infarction: a reliable predictor of outcome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Abstract Objective To further investigate the association between dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) and the outcomes in patients with acute lacunar infarction. Methods Patients were prospectively and consecutively enrolled at The First Hospital of Jilin University between 2016 and 2023. dCA was monitored at 1–3 and 7–10 days after the stroke.
