Changes in Immune‐Inflammation Status and Prognosis in Pregnancy‐Related Cerebral Venous Thrombosis
ABSTRACT Objective Distinguishing pathological changes from physiological adaptations in pregnancy‐related cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is clinically challenging. This study aimed to characterize coagulation, immune‐inflammation, and dehydration status in these patients and assess their prognostic value.

Stage‐Specific Patterns of Imaging and Non‐Motor Biomarkers in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3
ABSTRACT Objective Advancements in disease‐modifying therapies for spinocerebellar ataxia Type 3 (SCA3) underscore the need for robust biomarkers to monitor disease progression and evaluate treatment efficacy. Although motor phenotypes have been well characterized, less is known about non‐motor and imaging‐based features across different disease stages.

The Association of Amyloid‐β and Tau With Synaptic Dysfunction in Alzheimer's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective To clarify the relative contributions of amyloid and tau to synaptic dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods We included 109 cognitively unimpaired and impaired individuals from the Geneva Memory Center with available CSF synaptic biomarkers (neurogranin, SNAP‐25, GAP‐43). Participants were stratified according to amyloid (A)

ABSTRACT Objective Febrile seizures (FS) are currently classified as simple or complex primarily to describe seizure characteristics, with limited ability to identify the underlying etiology. We evaluated whether molecular diagnosis could complement conventional classification and improve the diagnosis and management of FS.

The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.
