Scoliosis and paraplegia [PDF]
Spinal Cord, 1967 Every patient suffering from kyphoscoliosis producing increasing abnormal neurological symptoms needs permanent neurological supervision. If conservative orthopaedic treatment does not result soon in a significant improvement, a Queckenstedt test and, if necessary, myelography has to be performed.

Clinical Characteristics of Parkinsonism in HTLV‐1‐Associated Myelopathy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Human T‐lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV‐1)‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is the classic neurological manifestation of HTLV‐1 infection; however, this virus has also been associated with other neurological disorders. Concurrent parkinsonism is relatively rare and presents diagnostic challenges.

Activation of Kir4.1 Channels by 2‐D08 Promotes Myelin Repair in Multiple Sclerosis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Multiple sclerosis causes myelin loss and neurological dysfunction. This study shows that 2‐D08, a small molecule targeting Kir4.1 channels, promotes OPCs differentiation via FYN tyrosine kinase phosphorylation and the FYN/MYRF pathway. It significantly improves myelin repair and motor deficits in EAE mice and marmosets, highlighting its potential as a

Genome Sequencing Uncovers Additional Findings in Phelan‐McDermid Syndrome
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Phelan‐McDermid syndrome (PMS) is a genetic condition caused by deletions of chromosome 22q13.3 or pathogenic variants in the SHANK3 gene. Neurologic features typically include intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, hypotonia, and absent speech, though there is considerable variability even among individuals with the same molecular
