Diagnostic Pitfalls in Hereditary Neurological Disorders: Machado-Joseph Disease Presenting as Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT We report a 60‐year‐old Chinese woman with Machado–Joseph disease (MJD/SCA3), initially managed as Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease due to distal sensory loss, pes cavus, and areflexia. Later cerebellar, bulbar, and ocular signs, together with ATXN3 CAG expansion, clarified the diagnosis and highlighted the need to revisit atypical hereditary ...

Expanded ATXN3 CAG Repeat is Stable in Human Purkinje Cells
Abstract Background Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an abnormally long polyglutamine‐encoding CAG repeat in the ATXN3 gene. Objectives We aimed to determine whether somatic expansion of the mutant ATXN3 (mATXN3) CAG repeat is present in the output cell of the cerebellar cortex, the Purkinje cell (PC), in ...

The Impact of Common Medications on Male Fertility: An Updated Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Background Compared with those of cytotoxic treatments, the potential effects of common medications on the fertility of men trying to conceive currently or planning to conceive in the future are less well described. The use of common medications may modify the gonadotropic axis, spermatogenesis, and epididymal maturation or alter male ...

Adults with Long COVID exhibited impaired aerobic capacity and persistent endothelial dysfunction despite preserved myocardial function approximately 3 years after SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. The association between flow‐mediated dilation (FMD) and exercise capacity suggests a potential contribution of peripheral vascular dysfunction to exercise intolerance.

Abstract Abiotic stressors, including drought, salinity, and heavy metal contamination, pose escalating threats to global food security, challenges further exacerbated by climate change and progressive soil degradation. As a strategic geochemical amendment, biochar is increasingly proposed to enhance soil resilience and agricultural sustainability ...

Remote Assessment of Ataxia Severity in SCA3 Across Multiple Centers and Time Points
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a genetically defined ataxia. The Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) is a clinician‐reported outcome that measures ataxia severity at a single time point. In its standard application, SARA fails to capture short‐term fluctuations, limiting its sensitivity in trials.

ABSTRACT Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations have been declining across the North Atlantic, with southern populations, including those in rivers draining into the southwestern Bay of Biscay, showing some of the strongest impacts. These rivers mark the species' southernmost distribution limit and are highly vulnerable to global change stressors ...

Abstract As our understanding of genetic risk and the availability of genetic testing increases, consideration of the psychological impact of living at risk for an autosomal dominant neurological condition (ADNC) becomes more pertinent. A systematic search of PsycINFO, MEDLINE, and Web of Science was run to identify studies exploring the psychological ...
