Charlson comorbidity index applied to shunted idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus
A series of epidemiological studies have shown the limited life expectancy of patients suffering from idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). In most cases, comorbid medical conditions are the cause of death, rather than iNPH. Though it has also

Clinical Validation of Plasma p‐217tau in Neurological Diseases
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐217tau is a minimally invasive but specific biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its disease specificity remains to be clinically evaluated. We validated the reliability of the p‐217tau biomarker in 12 other neurological diseases.

The KIF6‐RBP Complex Orchestrates mRNA Transport Required for Sperm Flagellar Assembly
Two homozygous deleterious KIF6 variants are identified in unrelated men with impaired sperm motility. Mouse models and multi‐omics analyses reveal that KIF6 cooperates with the RNA‐binding proteins FMRP and FXR1 to deliver mRNAs essential for sperm flagellar assembly, linking disrupted mRNA transport to reduced abundance of key structural and ...

Lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase: a glymphopathy marker in idiopathic hydrocephalus
Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus in elderly people is considered a form of glymphopathy caused by malfunction of the waste clearance pathway, called the glymphatic system. Tau is a representative waste material similar to amyloid-β.

Diagnosis and management of idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus [PDF]
The diagnosis and management of idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a disorder of gait impairment, incontinence, and dementia that affects elderly patients, incorporates an organized approach using familiar principles for neurologists. The starting point is a comprehensive history and neurologic examination, review of neuroimaging, and ...
