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.

Nonlinear Distortion-Aware Channel Estimation Strategies for IRS-Aided MIMO Systems
The article addresses the challenges posed by nonlinear distortions in Intelligent Reflecting Surface (IRS)-assisted Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems, which are often overlooked in conventional channel estimation strategies.

Generalised vector precoding design based on the MBER criterion for multiuser transmission
A generalised vector precoding (VP) design based on the minimum bit error rate (MBER) criterion is proposed for multiuser transmission in the downlink of a multiuser system where the base station (BS) equipped with multiple transmit antennas communicates

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

A transceiver design based on uniform channel decomposition and MBER vector perturbation [PDF]
Uniform channel decomposition (UCD), as an improvement of geometric mean decomposition (GMD), is capable of decomposing a multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) channel into multiple subchannels having an identical capacity.

Fluid Biomarkers of Disease Burden and Cognitive Dysfunction in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
ABSTRACT Objective Identifying objective biomarkers for progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is crucial to improving diagnosis and establishing clinical trial and treatment endpoints. This study evaluated fluid biomarkers in PSP versus controls and their associations with regional 18F‐PI‐2620 tau‐PET, clinical, and cognitive outcomes.

Improved exponential type variance estimators for population utilizing supplementary information
This paper contributes to the existing literature on variance estimators by utilizing supplementary information. The variance estimation problem of a finite population is a significant matter as sometimes, it is tough to control the variation.

On the influence of detection tests on deterministic parameters estimation [PDF]
In non-linear estimation problems three distinct regions of operation can be observed. In the asymptotic region, the Mean Square Error (MSE) of Maximum Likelihood Estimators (MLE) is small and, in many cases,close to the Cramer-Rao bound (CRB).

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.
