Reactivity to Novel Autoantigens in Patients with Coexisting Central Nervous System Demyelinating Disease and Autoimmune Thyroid Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Several lines of evidence suggest a definite and unique link between CNS demyelinating diseases and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD). The aim of the current study was to systematically compare the clinical and laboratory features of patients with ...

Demyelinating diseases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Pathology, 2006
A diagnosis of demyelination carries important therapeutic and prognostic implications. In most cases the diagnosis is made clinically, and involvement of the histopathologist is largely confined to postmortem confirmation and clinicopathological correlation.

Parkinsonism and neurosarcoidosis: Cause and effect or coincidence?

open access: yesClinical Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2019
Movement disorders in demyelinating diseases can be coincidental or secondary to a demyelinating lesion. We here report the first case of coincidental association of neurosarcoidosis and idiopathic Parkinson's disease.

Clinical utility of a molecular signature in inflammatory demyelinating disease

open access: yesNeurology: Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation, 2018
Objective We sought to develop molecular biomarkers of intrathecal inflammation to assist neurologists in identifying patients most likely to benefit from a range of immune therapies.

Defining distinct features of anti-MOG antibody associated central nervous system demyelination

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Neurological Disorders, 2018
Extensive research over the last decades basically failed to identify a common cause of noninfectious inflammatory central nervous system (CNS) demyelinating disease.

Utility of cerebrospinal fluid liquid biopsy in distinguishing CNS lymphoma from cerebrospinal infectious/demyelinating diseases

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2023
Background Distinguishing between central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) and CNS infectious and/or demyelinating diseases, although clinically important, is sometimes difficult even using imaging strategies and conventional cerebrospinal fluid (CSF ...

CSF free light chain identification of demyelinating disease: comparison with oligoclonal banding and other CSF indexes

open access: yesClinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2018
Background: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) used in immunoglobulin gamma (IgG) index testing and oligoclonal bands (OCBs) are common laboratory tests used in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.

Asymmetric Type F Botulism with Cranial Nerve Demyelination

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
We report a case of type F botulism in a patient with bilateral but asymmetric neurologic deficits. Cranial nerve demyelination was found during autopsy. Bilateral, asymmetric clinical signs, although rare, do not rule out botulism.

Protective and therapeutic role of 2-carba-cyclic phosphatidic acid in demyelinating disease

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2017
BackgroundMultiple sclerosis is a neuroinflammatory demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system characterized by recurrent and progressive demyelination/remyelination cycles, neuroinflammation, oligodendrocyte loss ...

Fulminant Demyelinating Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesThe Neurohospitalist, 2013
Fulminant demyelinating disease is a heading that covers acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and its variant acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis (Hurst disease), severe relapses of multiple sclerosis (MS), variants of MS (tumefactive MS, Marburg variant, Balo concentric sclerosis, myelinoclastic diffuse sclerosis), and neuromyelitis optica-spectrum ...
