Characteristics of Cerebral Palsy in the Midwestern US
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common lifelong motor disability worldwide. Yet, data is limited on how CP manifests in the US. Our objective was to characterize and determine factors affecting functional outcomes in a large population of young people with CP in the Midwestern US.

Correlation between ocular elasticity and intraocular pressure on optic nerve damages [PDF]
, 2014 Optic neuropathy in glaucoma causes visual field loss and blindness [1]. The optic nerve damage in the lamina cribrosa (LC) of the sclera, the primary site of glaucoma, is correlated with the intraocular pressure (IOP) [2]. Literature shows that the

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive impairment, fatigue, and depression are common in multiple sclerosis (MS), potentially due to disruption of regional functional connectivity caused by white matter (WM) lesions. We explored whether WM lesions functionally connected to specific brain regions contribute to these MS‐related manifestations.

Expanding Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias Limits: Biallelic SPAST Variants in Cerebral Palsy Mimics
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSP) are rare neurodegenerative disorders marked by spasticity and lower limb weakness. The most common type, SPG4, is usually autosomal dominant and caused by SPAST gene variants, typically presenting as pure HSP.
