Investigation of Complement Activation and Cytokine Signatures in AQP4+ NMOSD, MOGAD, and MS

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Aquaporin‐4‐IgG seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+ NMOSD), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD), and multiple sclerosis (MS) are pathophysiologically distinct neuroinflammatory disorders. Complement activation is a major mechanism of injury in AQP4+ NMOSD, whereas its role in

Dynamic Changes in Serum Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Levels Predicts Early Neurological Deterioration After Intravenous Thrombolysis in Minor Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Minor strokes may be associated with early neurological deterioration (END) and disabilities. The objective was to investigate the role of serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) levels in predicting END. Methods Data originated from a multicenter cohort study conducted prospectively.

Myostatin/Smad3 in Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Biomarkers of Disease Severity and Treatment Response

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Given the role of Myostatin (MSTN) in muscle homeostasis and its modulation by current spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) therapies, we investigated serum MSTN and, for the first time, its downstream effector Smad3 as candidate non‐invasive biomarkers in SMA patients undergoing disease‐modifying therapies (DMTs).

Improving the Diagnostic Accuracy of Plasma Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers With Objective and Subjective Cognitive Screening

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Blood‐based biomarkers are increasingly used to identify Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and may play an important role in early disease screening and participant selection for clinical trials. However, their performance across stages of cognitive impairment remains unclear. This study examined whether plasma biomarkers differ in

Determinants of Body Mass Index in Early Systemic Sclerosis: Implications for Nutritional Risk Stratification

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Gastrointestinal (GI) involvement can lead to malnutrition in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Body mass index (BMI) remains the most widely used marker to screen nutritional status. We aimed to identify predictors of lower BMI in patients with SSc. Methods Patients with SSc from a prospective US cohort meeting 2013 American College of

Microvascular Damage Is Associated With Carotid Wall Structural Changes in Systemic Sclerosis: A Capillaroscopy and Ultrasound‐Based Observational Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...
