Amygdala Neurodegeneration: A Key Driver of Visual Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Visual disability in Parkinson's disease (PD) is not fully explained by retinal neurodegeneration. We aimed to delineate the brain substrate of visual dysfunction in PD and its association with retinal thickness. Methods Forty‐two PD patients and 29 controls underwent 3‐Tesla MRI, retinal spectral‐domain optical coherence tomography,

Targeted Long‐Read Sequencing as a Single Assay Improves the Diagnosis of Spastic‐Ataxia Disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The hereditary spastic‐ataxia spectrum disorders are a group of disabling neurological diseases. The traditional genetic testing pathway is complex, multistep and leaves many cases unsolved. We aim to streamline and improve this process using long‐read sequencing. Methods We developed a targeted long‐read sequencing strategy with the

Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy: Distinctive MRI Changes in Cerebellar and Motor Networks

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME) is a rare generalized epilepsy syndrome with a well‐characterized genetic basis. The brain networks that are affected to give rise to the distinctive symptoms of PME are less well understood. Methods Eleven individuals with PME with a confirmed genetic diagnosis and 22 controls were studied.

Novel Phenotypes and Deep Intronic Variant Expand TH‐Associated Dopa‐Responsive Dystonia Spectrum

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Approximately 20% of dopa‐responsive dystonia (DRD) cases remain genetically unresolved. Using whole‐genome sequencing, we identified two TH variants in a young DRD patient, including a novel deep intronic variant. Minigene assays confirmed that this variant causes aberrant splicing.

Clinical and Imaging Features of Sporadic and Genetic Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration TDP‐43 A and B

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Certain frontotemporal lobar degeneration subtypes, including TDP‐A and B, can either occur sporadically or in association with specific genetic mutations. It is uncertain whether syndromic or imaging features previously associated with these patient groups are subtype or genotype specific.

Overlaps in brain dynamic functional connectivity between schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder

open access: yesScientific African, 2019
Schizophrenia and autism share some genotipic and phenotypic aspects as connectome miswiring and common cognitive deficits. Currently, there are no medical tests available for either disorders, and diagnostics for both of them include direct reports of ...

Unleashing the Power of Multiomics: Unraveling the Molecular Landscape of Peripheral Neuropathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peripheral neuropathies (PNs) affect over 20 million individuals in the United States, manifesting as a wide range of sensory, motor, and autonomic nerve symptoms. While various conditions such as diabetes, metabolic disorders, trauma, autoimmune disease, and chemotherapy‐induced neurotoxicity have been linked to PN, approximately one‐third of

Claustrum Volume Is Reduced in Multiple Sclerosis and Predicts Disability

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The claustrum is a small, thin structure of predominantly gray matter with broad connectivity and enigmatic function. Little is known regarding the impact of claustrum pathology in multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods This study assessed whether claustrum volume was reduced in MS and whether reductions were associated with specific ...
