Abstract Background Leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) p.L1795F variant was proposed as a genetic risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, its prevalence, phenotype, and origin remain unknown. Objective The aim was to evaluate the frequency and phenotype of p.L1795F in early‐onset PD (EOPD) and familial PD compared to healthy controls (HC ...

Deep Attention Q-Network for Personalized Treatment Recommendation [PDF]
Tailoring treatment for individual patients is crucial yet challenging in order to achieve optimal healthcare outcomes. Recent advances in reinforcement learning offer promising personalized treatment recommendations; however, they rely solely on current patient observations (vital signs, demographics) as the patient's state, which may not accurately ...

Progranulin Mutation Manifesting as Parkinson Disease: A Case Series from the PADUA‐CESNE Cohort
Abstract Background Mutations in progranulin (GRN) are associated with frontotemporal dementia, although a Parkinson disease (PD) phenotype is uncommon, especially in young patients. Cases We report three subjects from the PADUA‐CESNE cohort, meeting diagnostic criteria for PD, with onset under age 55.

Abstract Background Falls along with gait‐balance disturbances are important symptoms of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). Objectives This study aimed to validate the Functional Gait Assessment (FGA) item‐difficulty hierarchy, determine its optimal fall cutoff value, and identify key items for assessing fall risk in iNPH.

A unified model for the human response to lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation [PDF]
This study develops a unified model predicting the whole-body response to endotoxin. We simulate dynamics using differential equations examining the response to a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection. The model tracks pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-$\alpha$, IL-6, IL-10), concentrations of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH ...

Abstract Background Non‐motor fluctuations, characterized by variability in mood and cognition, are prevalent in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), but less is known about these fluctuations in early PD. Objective The objective was to characterize fluctuations in cognition and mood in early PD without cognitive impairment.

Predicting Blood Pressure Response to Fluid Bolus Therapy Using Attention-Based Neural Networks for Clinical Interpretability [PDF]
Determining whether hypotensive patients in intensive care units (ICUs) should receive fluid bolus therapy (FBT) has been an extremely challenging task for intensive care physicians as the corresponding increase in blood pressure has been hard to predict. Our study utilized regression models and attention-based recurrent neural network (RNN) algorithms

The Prevalence of Orthostatic Hypotension: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Background Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is associated with increased risk of falls, cognitive impairment and death, as well as a reduced quality of life. Although it is presumed to be common in older people, estimates of its prevalence vary widely.
