Distribution of Big Tau Isoforms in the Human Central and Peripheral Nervous System
Objective Tau is widely studied in neurodegeneration, yet most work has focused on canonical brain tau isoforms. A longer isoform, “big tau,” produced by inclusion of exon 4a, is expressed in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) regions.

Iron and Other Metal Ions in Human Health and Disease
Iron, copper, zinc, and calcium orchestrate cellular function through distinct yet cooperative mechanisms: redox‐active iron and copper cycle between oxidation states to act as Fenton catalysts and electron carriers in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS); redox‐inert zinc serves as a structural component of zinc‐finger proteins and a catalytic cofactor ...

“Abductor Sparing”: A New Selective Involvement in ALS
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Various signs of selective muscle involvement have been reported in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) but such studies for the lower limbs are scarce. We formed a preliminary impression that hip abductors (Ab) are often preserved in ALS.

ABSTRACT Background Whipple disease (WD) is a rare, potentially fatal infection caused by Tropheryma whipplei (TW). Central Nervous System involvement (CNS‐WD) is a severe complication of WD with a challenging diagnosis, due to limited data integrating neurological features, imaging, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, PCR, and intestinal histopathology ...

ABSTRACT Background/Aims International guidelines recommend initiating transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement with an 8‐mm stent. However, there is an evident lack of randomized controlled trials evaluating TIPS diameters < 8 mm in cirrhotic patients with a relatively small liver. The aim of this study was to determine whether 7

Successful reduction of os odontoideum‐associated atlantoaxial posterior dislocation may not always guarantee adequate C1–2 canal space. In patients with congenital atlas hypoplasia or posterior arch osteophytes, postreduction dorsal cord compression should be anticipated, and C1 posterior arch decompression may be required to prevent neurological ...
