Generalized Dystonia With Cervical Predominance in a Patient With a De Novo TCF20 Variant
ABSTRACT TCF20 has been implicated in developmental delay and intellectual disability, with dystonia reported less frequently. We describe a woman in her early twenties with childhood‐onset learning difficulties, progressive dysarthria, tremor, and generalized dystonia with marked cervical predominance, associated with a de novo TCF20 frameshift ...

ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy (GFAP‐A) is an inflammatory central nervous system disorder with variable outcomes. Relapse occurs in a subset of patients, but early predictors remain unclear. We aimed to identify admission‐available features associated with 1‐year recurrence and develop an interpretable ...

Accounting for Extremes in Modeling the Size and Likelihood of Large Fires in the United States
Wildfires pose growing threats to ecosystems, infrastructure, and communities, yet fire size distributions are often modeled without sufficient attention to rare, high‐impact events.

Anticoagulation Treatment Response Among Phenotypic ESUS Clusters: Evidence From CASPR
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate treatment effect heterogeneity across phenotypic clusters of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke using causal inference methods. Methods From a retrospective, multicenter cohort of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke, we estimated the treatment effect of anticoagulation versus antiplatelet therapy in patients ...

The size distribution of innovations revisited: an application of extreme value statistics to citation and value measures of patent significance [PDF]
This paper focuses on the analysis of size distributions of innovations, which are known to be highly skewed. We use patent citations as one indicator of innovation significance, constructing two large datasets from the European and US Patent Offices at ...

How Unusual Was the Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum?
The Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) was an extreme fluctuation of Earth's climate and a potential analog for future unmitigated anthropogenic climate change, but whose cause is debated.

Juvenile Huntington Disease With Cerebellar‐Predominant Atrophy Identified by Genome Sequencing
ABSTRACT Juvenile Huntington disease accounts for a small fraction of Huntington disease cases and is driven by the largest trinucleotide repeat expansions. We describe a 6‐year‐old boy with progressive global regression, generalized dystonia, and epilepsy, in whom serial imaging showed striking cerebellar‐predominant atrophy with an initially normal ...

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

Asymptotic Normality of Extreme Value Estimators on C[0,1] [PDF]
Consider n i.i.d. random elements on C[0; 1].We show that under an appropriate strengthening of the domain of attraction condition natural estimators of the extreme-value index, which is now a continuous function, and the normalizing functions have a ...
