Dysphagia and Mortality Risk in Individuals With Primary Progressive Apraxia of Speech
ABSTRACT Individuals with primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAOS) often develop parkinsonism and dysphagia. To evaluate the clinical correlates and impact of dysphagia in this population, we compared enrollment visit data between individuals with (n = 12) versus individuals without (n = 44) dysphagia symptoms.

KIF5A p.Pro986Leu Risk Variant and Accelerated Progression of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
ABSTRACT This study explored the impact of KIF5A rs113247976 (p.Pro986Leu), a risk allele for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), on phenotypic variability in two Italian ALS cohorts (discovery, n = 865; replication, n = 1174). The minor allele (T) frequency was 0.015.

Spatially Regularized Parametric Map Reconstruction for Fast Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting [PDF]
Magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) provides a unique concept for simultaneous and fast acquisition of multiple quantitative MR parameters. Despite acquisition efficiency, adoption of MRF into the clinics is hindered by its dictionary matching-based reconstruction, which is computationally demanding and lacks scalability.
