Area Postrema Syndrome: A Lesser Known Variant of Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder
One of the most specific presentations of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) is area postrema syndrome (APS). Although NMOSDs are now being increasingly encountered, APS is rarely reported in literature.

ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) are inflammatory demyelinating diseases of the CNS whose diagnosis is mainly based on clinical evidence, magnetic resonance imaging, and the analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Current approaches provide only partial insight into disease‐related biological processes, thus

The immunological landscape of the area postrema in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders
Aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive neuromyelitis spectrum disorder is characterized by large tissue destructive lesions in medulla, spinal cord, and optic nerves, with only partial recovery from clinical symptoms, and by lesions with very little tissue destruction and mostly complete recovery from clinical symptoms, as seen in the area postrema ...

Inborn errors of immunity in children with neuroinflammation
Abstract Inborn errors of immunity (IEIs), an expanding group of monogenic disorders with diverse clinical manifestations, are increasingly recognized to include neuroinflammatory disease. Examples of diseases included under this umbrella are Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2, familial haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis ...

Rethinking diabetic retinopathy: Homeostatic mechanisms for retinal clearance
In the healthy retina, balanced production and clearance of metabolic waste and fluid maintain retinal homeostasis and normal visual function. Diabetes disrupts this balance, increasing the accumulation of metabolic waste products, including advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and advanced lipoxidation end products (ALEs), while impairing waste and ...

Abstract Complement inhibitor therapy carries a risk of serious infections, including meningococcal disease. Here we provide evidence‐based recommendations and expert consensus for immunisation and prophylactic treatment of patients receiving, or planning to receive, complement inhibitors for neurological conditions in the Australian setting.
