Reserves, Injury Severity, and Outcomes in Traumatic Brain Injury: A CENTER‐TBI Observational Study
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Reserve refers to the brain's ability to maintain function after an injury and strongly relates to traumatic brain injury (TBI) outcomes. This study examined (1) whether associations between pre‐injury reserve proxies and outcomes differed across injury severity categories, and (2) whether the impact of injury severity varied across ...

A note on the identifiability of certain latent class models [PDF]
Wiering (2005, Statistics and Probability Letters, 75, 211-218) provides conditions for the identifiability of a class of latent models. Here we derive an alternative more general method of proving this result, which is based on standard identi ...

Inebilizumab in AQP4‐Seropositive NMOSD: One‐Year Follow‐Up From a Multicenter, Real‐World Study
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Real‐world evidence on inebilizumab among neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) patients is lacking. This study assessed inebilizumab among Chinese patients with aquaporin 4 autoantibody (AQP4‐IgG)‐seropositive NMOSD in a real‐world setting.

Boundary‐Dependent Sleep–Wake Dysregulation in Idiopathic Hypersomnia
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) presents with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) despite apparently preserved nocturnal sleep, challenging traditional models of hypersomnolence based on sleep loss or fragmentation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that EDS in IH reflects excessive stabilization of the sleep state, consistent with ...
