Digital Cognitive Phenotyping for Differential Diagnosis and Monitoring in Neurological Conditions
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To assess the utility, accessibility, and equivalence to supervised scales of online cognitive assessment in older individuals with cognitive impairment. Methods Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD, n = 31), idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH, n = 26), and traumatic brain injury (TBI, n = 23) completed online cognitive ...

Digital Cognitive Testing in Mitochondrial Disease: Validity and Challenges for Clinical Trial Use
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Primary mitochondrial disease is a group of genetic disorders caused by pathogenic variants in nuclear or mitochondrial DNA, often resulting in progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Current management is primarily supportive, though recent research offers hope for disease‐modifying treatments in the future.

Mathematical incompleteness of the fragility index
Abstract Background The Fragility Index (FI) is intended to quantify how many outcome changes would be required to convert a statistically significant two-arm trial result into a non-significant one. For a metric defined on valid 2×2 trial tables, mathematical completeness means that a finite numeric value is obtainable for every valid

Global Rather Than Vertical‐Selective Saccadic Abnormalities in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To test whether vertical saccades are preferentially affected in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). Methods PSP patients (n = 24) were compared to age‐matched controls (n = 94) and two degenerative groups (Alzheimer's disease, n = 20; Lewy body disease, n = 50).

Intracerebral Hemorrhage Induces Monocyte TNF Signaling in Patients That Is Suppressed by BAF312
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes high morbidity and mortality, with neurotoxic inflammation driven by infiltrating monocytes. This study is an in‐depth longitudinal examination of the immune response during the first week of ICH in the presence and absence of the immunomodulatory drug BAF312 (Siponimod).

Boundary‐Dependent Sleep–Wake Dysregulation in Idiopathic Hypersomnia
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) presents with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) despite apparently preserved nocturnal sleep, challenging traditional models of hypersomnolence based on sleep loss or fragmentation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that EDS in IH reflects excessive stabilization of the sleep state, consistent with ...
