Discontinuation of Immunotherapy in Patients With Relapsing Myelitis Without AQP4/MOG Antibodies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assesses the outcomes of immunotherapy discontinuation in patients with relapsing seronegative idiopathic myelitis (SIM), a condition that remains uninvestigated due to its rarity. We reviewed records from 77 patients with relapsing SIM at the National Cancer Center of Korea, focusing on 11 who discontinued treatment after a median ...

Serotonergic and Dopaminergic Function in Neuropsychiatrically Asymptomatic People With HIV on Antiretroviral Therapy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective People with HIV (PWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART) still experience neurocognitive dysfunction and accelerated brain volume loss. To assess whether the serotonergic and dopaminergic systems are affected, we used [11C]DASB positron emission tomography (PET) to assess presynaptic serotonergic function and [18F]FDOPA PET to measure ...
