Clustering Algorithm Reveals Dopamine‐Motor Mismatch in Cognitively Preserved Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the relationship between dopaminergic denervation and motor impairment in two de novo Parkinson's disease (PD) cohorts. Methods n = 249 PD patients from Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) and n = 84 from an external clinical cohort.

The Morse Index of Sacks–Uhlenbeck α-Harmonic Maps for Riemannian Manifolds

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics
In this paper, first we prove a nonexistence theorem for α-harmonic mappings between Riemannian manifolds. Second, the instability of nonconstant α-harmonic maps is studied with regard to the Ricci curvature criterion of their codomain. Then, we estimate

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

Evidence of Iron Accumulation in Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy: A Potential Novel Disease Mechanism

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this first application of Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping Source Separation to cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy, we uncovered alterations in iron and myelin within lesions and normal appearing white matter. As validation, we demonstrate abnormal iron accumulation in those same compartments within primary brain tissue.

An epsilon-regularity result for generalized harmonic maps into spheres

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2003
For $m,n ge 2$ and $1 < p < 2$, we prove that a map $u in W_mathrm{loc}^{1,p}(Omega,mathbb{S}^{n - 1})$ from an open domain $Omega subset mathbb{R}^m$ into the unit $(n - 1)$-sphere, which solves a generalized version of the harmonic map equation, is ...

Characterization of Ricci Solitons and Harmonic Vector Fields on the Lie Group Nil4

open access: yesMathematics
This study considers a left-invariant Riemannian metric g on the Lie group Nil4. We introduce a Ricci solitons’ classification on (Nil4,g). These are expansive non-gradient Ricci solitons.

Construction of Planar Harmonic Functions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2007
Complex-valued harmonic functions that are univalent and sense-preserving in the open unit disk can be written in the form f=h+g¯, where h and g are analytic in the open unit disk.

Innate Immune Reprogramming Mediated by Endogenous Retroelement Dysregulation Drives Multiple Sclerosis Progression

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Epigenetic reprogramming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and downstream myeloid cells, mediated by H3.3 downregulation and endogenous retroelement (ERE) overexpression, contributes to the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). ABSTRACT Background Skewed myelopoiesis in the bone marrow has been identified as a key driver of multiple ...

On the Structure of ∞-Harmonic Maps

open access: yes, 2014
Let H ∈ C 2(ℝ N×n ), H ≥ 0. The PDE system arises as the Euler-Lagrange PDE of vectorial variational problems for the functional E ∞(u, Ω) = ‖H(Du)‖ L ∞(Ω) defined on maps u: Ω ⊆ ℝ n → ℝ N . (1) first appeared in the author's recent work. The scalar case
