Association Between Motor Pathway Damage and Motor Deficit in Upper and Lower Limb in People With MS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Corticospinal tract damage is common in people with MS, but the degree of clinical symptoms varies. We hypothesize that corticospinal tract lesions are more extensive and severe in people with MS with motor impairments in both upper and lower limbs.

On the feasibility of Ohmically heated negative triangularity tokamak power plants

Nuclear Fusion
Negative triangularity (NT) plasmas achieve enhanced confinement without edge localized modes nor the need to exceed the L-H heating power threshold. Removing this H-mode accessibility constraint opens a new region of parameter space: scenarios with low ...

Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.

Comment on ‘Relationship between magnetic field and tokamak size—a system engineering perspective and implications to fusion development’

Nuclear Fusion
The recent Federici et al (2024 Nucl. Fusion 64 036025) article makes the argument that higher magnetic fields cannot reduce the size and cost of a tokamak-based fusion power plant due to: structural considerations of the toroidal field (TF) coils, the ...

Thalamo‐Lesional Connectivity Signatures of Bilateral Tonic–Clonic Seizures in Focal Cortical Dysplasia‐Related Epilepsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is the most common etiology of drug‐resistant epilepsy in children. Focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (FBTCS) mark a high risk of drug‐resistant epilepsy and involve thalamocortical circuitry in their generation and propagation.

Characterizing Cutaneous α‐Synuclein Deposition and Seeding Activity in Parkinson's Disease Subtypes

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cutaneous phosphorylated α‐synuclein (p‐syn) and α‐synuclein seeding activity are promising biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD), but their clinical value remains uncertain due to disease heterogeneity. This study evaluates these two biomarkers in PD patients to inform phenotype‐specific diagnosis and disease severity assessment ...

Nuclear technology considerations and neutronics for the ST-E1 fusion power plant

Nuclear Fusion
This paper presents Tokamak Energy’s pre-concept design of ST-E1, a low aspect ratio tokamak fusion reactor. Efficacy of radiation shielding in protecting the high temperature superconducting magnets systems is a major driver dictating tokamak size ...
