Prevalence of Stroke and Diagnostic Performance of Emergency MRI in Acute Isolated Dizziness
ABSTRACT Objective Stroke is frequently misdiagnosed in patients presenting with acute isolated dizziness; the optimal imaging modality for this population remains debated. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of stroke among patients with isolated dizziness and to assess the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed ...

The Diverse Neuromuscular Spectrum of VPS13A Disease
ABSTRACT Objective VPS13A disease (chorea‐acanthocytosis) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by biallelic variants in VPS13A, typically presenting with hyperkinetic movement disorders, while neuromuscular signs are often mild. The aim of the project was to investigate the frequency and severity of neuromuscular impairment in VPS13A disease ...

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.

ABSTRACT Objective The optimal treatment for neurosarcoidosis myelitis is uncertain. We characterize incident neurosarcoidosis myelitis and assess treatment response by MRI and clinical scales. Methods Incident probable or definite neurosarcoidosis myelitis in adults was retrospectively identified from 13 academic medical centers.

Purkinje Cell Loss in Essential Tremor: Collective Data From 215 Brains Over a 21‐Year Period
ABSTRACT Objective Essential tremor is a highly prevalent movement disorder. Pathological changes observed in essential tremor cerebella center around Purkinje cells and neighboring neuronal populations. Postmortem studies have variably, but not always, shown reduced Purkinje cell counts in essential tremor compared to controls.

Expanding Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias Limits: Biallelic SPAST Variants in Cerebral Palsy Mimics
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.
