Adult‐Onset Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis Presenting With Subacute Cognitive Deficits
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We describe the case of a 41‐year‐old man diagnosed with adult‐onset subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE). The patient presented with subacute progressive cognitive deficits and a neuropsychological profile indicating predominant frontoparietal dysfunction. MRI showed only mild parietal‐predominant cerebral atrophy.

Scanpath Eye Movements during Visual Mental Imagery in a Simulated Hemianopia Paradigm [PDF]
, 2012 Several studies have shown that eye movements (EM) are functionally involved in visual imagery. In this study we investigate the impact of a simulated homonymous hemianopia paradigm (SH) with and without foveal masking on scanpath eye movements during ...

Applying an Ethical Lens to the Treatment of People With Multiple Sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The practice of neurology requires an understanding of clinical ethics for decision‐making. In multiple sclerosis (MS) care, there are a wide range of ethical considerations that may arise. These involve shared decision‐making around selection of a disease‐modifying therapy (DMT), risks and benefits of well‐studied medications in comparison to

Traumatic Microhemorrhages Are Not Synonymous With Axonal Injury
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is caused by acceleration‐deceleration forces during trauma that shear white matter tracts. Susceptibility‐weighted MRI (SWI) identifies microbleeds that are considered the radiologic hallmark of DAI and are used in clinical prognostication.
