Relevance of Kappa and Lambda Free Light Chains in Autoimmune Astrocytopathy Associated With Anti‐GFAP Antibodies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The kappa‐free light chain (κ‐FLC) index is known to be highly sensitive and specific for diagnosing multiple sclerosis (MS), while little is understood about lambda (λ)‐FLC. This study assessed the κ‐FLC and λ‐FLC indices in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) astrocytopathy.

Association Between the Change of Coagulation Parameters and Clinical Prognosis in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients After Intravenous Thrombolysis With rt-PA

Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, 2021
Acute ischemic stroke patients with intravenous (IV) recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) thrombolysis have different outcomes. The degree of thrombolysis depends largely on the delicate balance of coagulation and fibrinolysis.

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

Autoimmune neurological diseases

Medicine, 2008
Abstract Myasthenia gravis (MG) is one of the best understood autoantibody-mediated disorders. The pathogenic antibodies against the acetylcholine receptor (AChR) have been well characterized and are known to impair neuromuscular transmission by direct blockade, complement-mediated damage and accelerated receptor-mediated endocytosis.

Mechanical Thrombectomy for TRACE‐III‐Eligible Patients With Ischemic Stroke: A Multicenter Retrospective Study Compared to TRACE‐III and TIMELESS Trials

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The results of the TRACE‐III trial demonstrated that tenecteplase (TNK) might be comparable to TNK combined with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke within 4.5 to 24 h of onset, as tested in the TIMELESS trial.
