Complementarity of Long‐Reads and Optical Mapping in Parkinson's Disease for Structural Variants

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Long‐read sequencing and optical genome mapping technologies have the ability to detect large and complex structural variants. This has led to the discovery of novel pathogenic variants in neurodegenerative movement disorders. Thus, we aimed to systematically compare the SV detection capabilities of OGM and ONT in Parkinson's disease.

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe

Efficacy of Intermittent Theta‐Burst Stimulation for Prolonged Disorders of Consciousness: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Emerging evidence suggests that low‐frequency neural oscillations are dynamically regulated by consciousness levels, with the recovery of low cortical activity potentially serving as a neurophysiological substrate for conscious emergence. Targeted enhancement of these low‐frequency rhythms in patients with disorders of consciousness

Sign language linguistics: left hand signers non-inversion of some signs as an argument in favour of a breaking perspective based on iconicity

Quintú Quimün, 2020
According to Fusellier-Souza (2004), researchers in the field of sign language linguistics can be organized in two large groups: (i) those who believe that sign languages must be identical to spoken languages and, thus, base their research on the ...

Where do Features Come from? Evidence from Sign Language

Nordlyd: Tromsø University Working Papers on Language & Linguistics, 2015
The paper considers sign language phonological features in the context of the basic question about the origin of features.  Based on earlier work by Stokoe (1960) and others, I show that signs are comprised of distinctive features which can be discretely
