Minimal detectable change in inertial measurement unit-based trunk acceleration indices during gait in inpatients with subacute stroke

Scientific Reports, 2023
Gait analysis using inertial measurement units (IMU) provides a multifaceted assessment of gait characteristics, but minimal detectable changes (MDC), the true change beyond measurement error, during gait in patients hospitalized with subacute stroke has

The Applicability of Standard Error of Measurement and Minimal Detectable Change to Motor Learning Research—A Behavioral Study

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
Motor learning studies face the challenge of differentiating between real changes in performance and random measurement error. While the traditional p-value-based analyses of difference (e.g., t-tests, ANOVAs) provide information on the statistical ...

Annual 12‐Week Dosing Gap of Natalizumab: Clinical Efficacy, Blood Biomarkers, and CSF Cell Composition

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Natalizumab (NTZ) is a highly effective therapy for multiple sclerosis (MS); however, its use is limited by the risk of a rare potentially severe opportunistic brain infection, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Alternative dosing strategies are evaluated to reduce PML risk while still maintaining efficacy, which ...

In‐Depth Profiling Highlights the Effect of Efgartigimod on Peripheral Innate and Adaptive Immune Cells in Myasthenia Gravis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by antibody‐mediated complement activation. Efgartigimod, a neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) antagonist, is approved for treating generalized MG (gMG). However, its modulatory effects on upstream innate and adaptive immune cells remain largely unexplored.

Modulating Two‐Photon Absorption in a Pyrene‐Based MOF Series: An In‐Depth Investigation of Structure–Property Relationships

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates H4TBAPy‐based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) ‐ NU‐1000, NU‐901, SrTBAPy, and BaTBAPy ‐ for multiphoton absorption (MPA) performance. It observes topology‐dependent variations in the 2PA cross‐section, with BaTBAPy exhibiting the highest activity.

Augmented Stability in Leaving Original Internal Fixation with Multidimensional Cross Locking Plate through Mini‐Open Femoral Anterior Approach for Aseptic Femoral Shaft Nonunion: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, 2023
Objective Aseptic femoral shaft nonunion constitutes approximately 1%–10% of all femoral shaft fractures treated with intramedullary nail (IMN) fixation, possibly attributable to the lack of anti‐rotational stability. Although a lateral locking plate (LP)
