Clinical Characteristics of Parkinsonism in HTLV‐1‐Associated Myelopathy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Human T‐lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV‐1)‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is the classic neurological manifestation of HTLV‐1 infection; however, this virus has also been associated with other neurological disorders. Concurrent parkinsonism is relatively rare and presents diagnostic challenges.

Therapeutic strategies for glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019 Proper development and function of the mammalian brain is critically dependent on a steady supply of its chief energy source, glucose. Such supply is mediated by the glucose transporter 1 (Glut1) protein. Paucity of the protein stemming from mutations in

In Vitro Modeling of Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity to Inform Personalized ALS Therapeutics
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Natural killer (NK) cells might contribute to motor neuron death in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) through direct cytotoxicity, a process that could be inhibited with the FDA‐approved JAK/STAT pathway inhibitor, tofacitinib. This study aimed to verify that tofacitinib can suppress NK cell cytotoxicity, investigate if immune cell

A Validated Model to Predict Severe Weight Loss in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Severe weight loss in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is common, multifactorial, and associated with shortened survival. Using longitudinal weight data from over 6000 patients with ALS across three cohorts, we built an accelerated failure time model to predict the risk of future severe (≥ 10%) weight loss using five single‐timepoint ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) significantly impacts motor function. This study aimed to assess the persistent burden and unmet needs among currently treated patients with SMA and their caregivers. Methods Two complementary web‐based surveys were distributed in August 2024 among patients with SMA and their caregivers.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The Apolipoprotein (APOE) ε4 allele is the strongest genetic risk factor for late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, many ε4 carriers remain cognitively intact into old age. Leveraging plasma neuron‐derived extracellular vesicles (NDEVs), we sought to identify biomarkers of cognitive resilience and their interplay with APOE ...
