Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.

Periocular motor neurotization: a systematic review of techniques and outcomes in orbicularis oculi reinnervation

Frontiers in Ophthalmology
BackgroundPeriocular motor neurotization is a surgical approach that can be indicated for the restoration of dynamic eyelid function in patients with facial nerve palsy. The orbicularis oculi muscle, responsible for eyelid closure, can be the target of a

Onasemnogene Abeparvovec in Patients With SMA: Interim Results of the RESTORE Registry in Japan

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective There are limited real‐world data regarding the safety and effectiveness of onasemnogene abeparvovec (OA; Zolgensma) infusion, a one‐time gene replacement therapy, for Japanese patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). We aimed to improve understanding of the real‐world outcomes for OA in Japan.

Sensory restoration of the critical border of the small finger by an emergency heterodigital nerve transfer after circular saw injury

Acta Marisiensis - Seria Medica
Traumatic nerve injuries involving the distal part of the upper extremity may significantly affect the function of the hand if left untreated. An alternative to nerve autografts for treating digital nerve injuries are nerve transfers.

Results of finger extension reconstruction in hemiplegic patients after stroke by transferring the flexor carpi radialis branch to the posterior interosseous nerve

Journal of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery
Purpose: Contralateral C7 nerve transfer (CC7) surgery has demonstrated success in restoring upper limb motor function after central nervous system injuries. However, deficits in finger extension limit patient independence.

T1 Over Squared Proton Density Ratio to Characterize Multiple Sclerosis Lesions

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Differentiating remyelinated from demyelinated lesions in MS remains challenging without histological confirmation. This study introduces the T1‐to‐PD2 ratio (TPR) imaging approach and evaluates its ability to characterize MS lesions alongside other quantitative MRI (qMRI) metrics. Methods Thirty individuals with MS (mean age: 47.5 ±

Quantitative MRI Uncovers Subtle Cortical Damage in Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody‐Associated Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether myelin‐sensitive quantitative MRI reveals microstructural abnormalities in normal‐appearing cortex (NACtx) in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), indicating that conventional MRI underestimates remission residual cortical injury.

Baseline Neuroinflammation Stratifies TSPO‐PET Response to Disease‐Modifying Therapy in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate which baseline clinical and imaging characteristics best predict TSPO‐PET‐measurable reduction in glial activation following treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS), to utilize this information for designing more efficient biomarker‐based clinical trials targeting glial activation.
