Parkinson Disease Subtype Stability and Eventual Convergence
ABSTRACT Objective Previous research identified distinct Parkinson disease (PD) clinical subtypes of “Motor Only,” “Psychiatric & Motor,” and “Cognitive & Motor” based on comprehensive, multidomain classification. Whether these subtypes reflect distinct trajectories or progressive disease stages remains unknown.

Optically pumped magnetometers are employed to contactlessly map the spatiotemporal dynamics of the magnetic field linked to electrical activity of a skeletal muscle in vivo. It is demonstrated that localization of the clinically relevant innervation zone is feasible using this non‐invasive magnetic measurement modality. ABSTRACT Magnetomyography (MMG)

Magnetomechanical neuromodulation using magnetic nanodiscs enables remote activation of neurons. In a hemiparkinsonian mouse model, alternating magnetic fields actuate the nanodiscs to generate torque that opens mechanosensitive ion channels within the subthalamic nucleus, thereby modulating basal ganglia motor circuitry.

An optimized Cas9‐enriched nanopore sequencing workflow, combined with STRiker, enables simultaneous analysis of disease‐associated STR loci from patient blood. The nCATS–STRiker workflow detects repeat expansions, de novo repeat motifs, interruption patterns, and methylation in a single assay, improving the genetic diagnosis of previously undiagnosed ...

REEP4 variant analysis in blepharospasm and other neurological disorders
Introduction: In preceding work, a deleterious REEP4 variant [GRCh38/hg38, NC_000008.11:g.22140245G>A, NM_025232.4:c.109C>T, p.Arg37Trp] was found to co-segregate with blepharospasm (BSP) in a large African-American pedigree.

Herein, a patient‐mounted neuro optical coherence tomography system that integrates a 5 degrees‐of‐freedom skull‐mounted robot (Skullbot) with a 0.6 mm neuroendoscope for targeted, minimally invasive deep brain imaging, is developed. The system offers high‐resolution imaging with precise deployment, demonstrated through successful tumor imaging in a ...

Vocal impairments are a debilitating but understudied feature of several dystonias, including generalized and early-onset genetic forms. Despite growing recognition that cerebellar dysfunction contributes to dystonic pathophysiology, the circuit ...

ABSTRACT Nonimmune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) is characterized by abnormal fluid accumulation in ≥ 2 fetal compartments and may be genetic. The incremental diagnostic yield of prenatal exome sequencing (ES) for NIHF following a negative standard workup was previously explored on 22 cases.

DYSTONIA LENTICULARIS (DYSTONIA MUSCULORUM DEFORMANS)
The condition generally recognized as dystonia musculorum deformans, a name given it by Oppenheim, is of special interest at this time in view of the recent significant researches concerning the functions of the basal ganglia, especially of the nucleus lenticularis.
