Sex‐Specific Genetic Architecture of ALS: Evidence of a Female Protective Effect?
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) shows sex differences in incidence and age of onset, yet the underlying biological mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods We investigated sex‐specific genetic architecture in an Italian ALS cohort with whole‐genome sequencing (1,333 ALS cases, 755 controls).

Objective To characterize Fc‐glycosylation profiles in patients with anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor encephalitis (NMDARe) and assess their association with antibody compartmentalization (cerebrospinal fluid [CSF] vs serum), disease triggers (viral, tumor‐related or idiopathic), and 1‐year outcomes.

Objective Biallelic variants in PRKN cause autosomal recessive Parkinson's disease (PD) with a median age at onset of 31 years. When evaluating the 16 previously published carriers of a homozygous deletion of Exon 2 from the International Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorder Society Gene Database (MDSGene) database, the median age at onset is ...

The Age at Onset of LRRK2 p.Gly2019Ser Parkinson's Disease Across Ancestries and Countries of Origin
Objectives The objective of this study was to elucidate differences in the cumulative incidence of Leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) p.Gly2019Ser‐related Parkinson's disease (PD; LRRK2‐PD) between ancestries and countries. Methods We included 922 unrelated p.Gly2019Ser variant carriers (affected = 762 and unaffected = 160) from the Global Parkinson ...

Objective Targeted therapies for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are progressing through clinical trials. Electrical impedance myography (EIM) provides a noninvasive biomarker of muscle composition that may be valuable especially in early phase trials. This study evaluated EIM data from a multicenter FSHD cohort over 24 months.
