Rituximab monitoring and redosing in pediatric neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
OBJECTIVE: To study rituximab in pediatric neuromyelitis optica (NMO)/NMO spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and the relationship between rituximab, B cell repopulation, and relapses in order to improve rituximab monitoring and redosing.

Biallelic Variants in SLC27A3 Cause a Complex Form of Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Complex lipid metabolism is one of the main biological pathways disrupted in neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA). SLC27A3 gene encodes for the very long‐chain acyl‐CoA synthetase 3, an acyl‐CoA ligase that activates long and very long‐chain fatty acids.

The Second Hit Hypothesis in Animal and Human Dystonia: The Role of Peripheral Nerve Trauma and Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
The “second‐hit” hypothesis proposes that both a genetic predisposition and an environmental insult—such as peripheral nerve trauma or spinal cord injury—are required for dystonia development. This review explores how neuroinflammation and maladaptive plasticity, triggered by nerve and spinal cord injury, contribute to dystonia pathogenesis.

Importance of R2 accuracy in susceptibility source separation

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To examine the importance of R2 accuracy on independent paramagnetic and diamagnetic outputs from susceptibility source separation in the brain from two publicly available methods. Methods The effects of R2 errors, which translate into R2′$$ {\mathrm{R}}_2^{\prime } $$ errors, on output maps from χ‐separation and χ‐sepnet were examined

Optimized reconstruction of undersampled Dixon sequences using new memory‐efficient unrolled deep neural networks: HalfVarNet and HalfDIRCN

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Fat fraction (FF) quantification in individual muscles using quantitative MRI is of major importance for monitoring disease progression and assessing disease severity in neuromuscular diseases. Undersampling of MRI acquisitions is commonly used to reduce scanning time. The present paper introduces novel unrolled neural networks for the

Predictive Values of Preoperative Compound Muscle Action Potential Amplitude for Surgical Outcomes in Idiopathic Ulnar Neuropathy at the Elbow

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introductions/Aims Despite numerous studies on ulnar neuropathy at the elbow (UNE), the predictive value of preoperative compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude for postoperative intrinsic function remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive values of preoperative CMAP amplitude for surgical outcomes in idiopathic ...

Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis of the Brainstem as a Clinical Entity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a rare progressive neurological disorder of early adolescence caused by persistent infection of the measles virus, which remains prevalent worldwide despite an effective vaccine. SSPE is a devastating disease
