Noise in multiple sclerosis: unwanted and necessary [PDF]

, 2014
As our knowledge about the etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) increases, deterministic paradigms appear insufficient to describe the pathogenesis of the disease, and the impression is that stochastic phenomena (i.e.

The Diagnostic Value of Visual Evoked Potentials in Chronic Disorders of Consciousness

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In chronic disorders of consciousness (DOCs), the distinction between vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (VS/UWS) and minimally conscious state (MCS) is as crucial as it is challenging. Evoked potentials (EPs) and event‐related potentials (ERPs) are helpful, but some limitations prevent their consistent use in the ...

Sustained synchronized neuronal network activity in a human astrocyte co-culture system [PDF]

, 2016
Impaired neuronal network function is a hallmark of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders such as autism, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease and is typically studied using genetically modified cellular and animal models.

The MSA Atrophy Index (MSA‐AI): An Imaging Marker for Diagnosis and Clinical Progression in Multiple System Atrophy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Reliable biomarkers are essential for tracking disease progression and advancing treatments for multiple system atrophy (MSA). In this study, we propose the MSA Atrophy Index (MSA‐AI), a novel composite volumetric measure to distinguish MSA from related disorders and monitor disease progression. Methods Seventeen participants with an

Stem cell transplantation in neurological diseases: improving effectiveness in animal models.

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2014
Neurological diseases afflict a growing proportion of the human population. There are two reasons for this: first, the average age of the population (especially in the industrialised world) is increasing, and second, the diagnostic tools to detect these ...

Performance of Composite Endpoints Defining Progression Independent of Relapse Activity in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The characteristics and utility of composite progression independent of relapse activity (cPIRA; worsening on the Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS], or 9‐Hole Peg Test, or Timed 25‐Foot Walk Test) were evaluated as an endpoint in relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) trials using the ENSEMBLE (NCT03085810) and pooled OPERA I/II ...

Thalamic deep brain stimulation improves movement in a cerebellar model of lesion-based status dystonicus

Neurotherapeutics
Dystonia is the third most common movement disorder and an incapacitating co-morbidity in a variety of neurologic conditions. Dystonia can be caused by genetic, degenerative, idiopathic, and acquired etiologies, which are hypothesized to converge on a ...

Continuous Monitoring of Bladder Dysfunction in People With Multiple Sclerosis: Wearables for the Bladder

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bladder dysfunction affects over 85% of people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS), yet current assessment methods are limited to periodic in‐clinic evaluations or subjective patient reports, failing to capture real‐world symptom fluctuations.

Cervical Spinal Cord Magnetization Transfer Ratio and Its Relationship With Clinical Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The cervical spinal cord (cSC) is highly relevant to clinical dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) but remains understudied using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We assessed magnetization transfer ratio (MTR), a semi‐quantitative MRI measure sensitive to MS‐related tissue microstructural changes, in the cSC and its ...
