Cardiovascular morbidity following epilepsy: A nationwide retrospective cohort study in South Korea

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study evaluated the long‐term risk of major cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in patients with epilepsy using a nationwide cohort, aiming to address critical gaps in population‐based evidence on brain–heart interactions. Methods Data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (2002–2013) were analyzed.

Olfactory stem cells, a new cellular model for studying molecular mechanisms underlying familial dysautonomia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a hereditary neuropathy caused by mutations in the IKBKAP gene, the most common of which results in variable tissue-specific mRNA splicing with skipping of exon 20.

Prodromal Lewy Body Symptoms and α‐Synuclein Seeding in Idiopathic Olfactory Dysfunction

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Early identification of pathological α‐synuclein deposition (αSynD) may improve understanding of Lewy body disorder (LBD) progression and enable timely disease‐modifying treatments. Objectives We investigated αSynD using a seed amplification assay and assessed prodromal LBD symptoms in individuals with idiopathic olfactory ...

Sympathetic Shift and Insular Alteration: Unravelling the Link Between Anxiety and Heart Rate Variability in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Anxiety and autonomic dysfunction are frequent non‐motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Their relationship, as well as the neural mechanisms underlying this relationship, remain unexplored. Objectives We aimed to investigate the relationship between cardiovascular functions and anxiety in PD and the structural neural changes ...

Phosphatidylserine Ameliorates Neurodegenerative Symptoms and Enhances Axonal Transport in a Mouse Model of Familial Dysautonomia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Familial Dysautonomia (FD) is a neurodegenerative disease in which aberrant tissue-specific splicing of IKBKAP exon 20 leads to reduction of IKAP protein levels in neuronal tissues. Here we generated a conditional knockout (CKO) mouse in which exon 20 of

Types of Pain in Multiple System Atrophy

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pain affects up to 87% of people with multiple system atrophy (MSA), but it remains unclear which types of pain contribute most to the overall burden. Objective To estimate the frequency of different types of pain in MSA individuals.

Early Autonomic Burden in Prodromal Parkinson's Disease Predicts Cognitive Impairment

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Autonomic dysfunction is a known contributor to cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD), but its impact during prodromal stage is unknown. Objective The aim was to determine whether early autonomic burden predicts incident cognitive impairment in prodromal PD.

Altered Pain Perception in a Young Adult with Childhood Trauma and Suspected Riley-Day Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesReports
Background and Clinical Significance: Altered pain perception is a diagnostic challenge for patients with a history of trauma and substance use. Familial dysautonomia (Riley-Day syndrome) may further complicate the sensory profiles. Case Presentation: We
