Stage‐Specific Patterns of Imaging and Non‐Motor Biomarkers in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3
ABSTRACT Objective Advancements in disease‐modifying therapies for spinocerebellar ataxia Type 3 (SCA3) underscore the need for robust biomarkers to monitor disease progression and evaluate treatment efficacy. Although motor phenotypes have been well characterized, less is known about non‐motor and imaging‐based features across different disease stages.

Efficacy of Fampridine on Refractory Optic Neuritis in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) usually occur with acute refractory optic neuritis (ON). However, there is a lack of efficacious treatments to improve recovery. Since fampridine has been found to improve the prognosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and MS‐related ON, it is necessary to explore the efficacy of fampridine ...

ABSTRACT Background Biallelic FIG4 variants classically cause distinct conditions characterized by peripheral neuropathy (Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease type 4J) or skeletal dysplasia (Yunis‐Varón syndrome). However, central nervous system involvement is increasingly recognized. The prevalence and specific characteristics of movement disorders within FIG4‐

ABSTRACT Objective Sleep disturbances have been implicated as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer's disease (AD), but evidence linking plasma AD biomarkers to sleep in cognitively unimpaired individuals remains limited. The present study examined associations between evening, morning, and overnight changes in plasma AD biomarkers and measures of ...

ABSTRACT Objective Inherited ataxias are clinically diverse neurodegenerative diseases, complicating the choice of outcome measures for trials. In spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), regulatory concerns about the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) caused a shift toward functional SARA (f‐SARA), contributing to pivotal trial failure.
