Relationship of cognitive decline with glucocerebrosidase activity and amyloid‐beta 42 in DLB and PD
Abstract Objective Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease (PD) share clinical, pathological, and genetic risk factors, including GBA1 and APOEε4 mutations. Biomarkers associated with the pathways of these mutations, such as glucocerebrosidase enzyme (GCase) activity and amyloid‐beta 42 (Aβ42) levels, may hold potential as predictive ...

Early Risk Assessment Model for ICA Timing Strategy in Unstable Angina Patients Using Multi-Modal Machine Learning [PDF]
Background: Invasive coronary arteriography (ICA) is recognized as the gold standard for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases, including unstable angina (UA). The challenge lies in determining the optimal timing for ICA in UA patients, balancing the need for revascularization in high-risk patients against the potential complications in low-risk ones ...

Handling rescue therapy in myasthenia gravis clinical trials: why it matters and why you should care
Abstract Myasthenia gravis (MG) clinical trials typically allow rescue therapy during follow‐up in the event of marked worsening of MG symptoms. Failure to appropriately address rescue therapy in defining treatment effects and planning statistical analyses may yield biased estimates, increase false positive rates, or decrease statistical power – all of

Abstract Objectives Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is an effective treatment for Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), but recovery varies between patients. This study aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of a single and a second IVIg dose (SID) in patients with GBS.

Deep learning-based identification of patients at increased risk of cancer using routine laboratory markers [PDF]
Early screening for cancer has proven to improve the survival rate and spare patients from intensive and costly treatments due to late diagnosis. Cancer screening in the healthy population involves an initial risk stratification step to determine the screening method and frequency, primarily to optimize resource allocation by targeting screening ...
