“Low‐Positive” MOG‐IgG Cases Among Adults With a First Event Suggestive of Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the prevalence and clinical characteristics of patients with “low‐positive” (LP) MOG‐IgG (titres 1:160–1:320) among adults with a first demyelinating event (FDE) suggestive of multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods From the Barcelona CIS inception cohort, we included adult patients with serum collected ≤ 6 months from the FDE.

An Atypical Case of Lumbar Scheuermann’s Disease

Medicine Science, 2016
Scheuermann disease’s true etiology still remains unknown, but there appears to be a strong genetic as well as an environmental contribution. The kyphotic deformity is frequently attributed to "poor posture" which is still resulting in delayed diagnosis.

CSF Cytokine Network Organization Predicts Progression Independent of Relapse and MRI Activity in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Progression independent of relapse activity is a major determinant of long‐term disability in multiple sclerosis, but its immunopathologic basis remains incompletely understood. We investigated whether relapse‐independent progression in radiologically stable relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis is associated with distinct ...

An Invariant Geometric Feature for Inter-Subject Lumbar Curve Alignment to Detect Spondylolisthesis

IEEE Access
Spondylolisthesis classification commonly relies on the shift distance (SD) feature. This feature measures the displacement between vertebrae but is sensitive to variations in size and rotational alignment of the vertebrae.

Changes in intervertebral disc morphology persist 5 mo after 21-day bed rest [PDF]

, 2011
As part of the nutrition- countermeasures (NUC) study in Cologne, Germany in 2010, seven healthy male subjects underwent 21 days of head-down tilt bed rest and returned 153 days later to undergo a second bout of 21-day bed rest. As part of this model,

Association Between Neurofilament Light Chain and Real‐World Ambulatory Function in Progressive MS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a biomarker of neuroaxonal injury in multiple sclerosis (MS), yet associations with functional outcomes remain unclear. Longitudinal associations between serum NfL (sNfL) and daily step count (STEPS) from wearable devices were assessed in a large international progressive MS cohort.

Automatic segmentation of lumbar vertebrae in digital videofluoroscopic images

, 2004
Low back pain is a significant problem in the industrialized world. Diagnosis of the underlying causes can be extremely difficult. Since mechanical factors often play an important role, it can be helpful to study the motion of the spine.

Subjective Cognitive Concerns and Cognitive Trajectories in Parkinson's Disease: Biomarker Impact

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the relationship of subjective cognitive concerns (SCC) with biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD), neurodegeneration, and Parkinson's disease (PD) and domain‐specific cognitive trajectories among cognitively unimpaired persons with de novo PD. Method Cognitively unimpaired participants with SCC (n = 294) and without SCC (
