ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

A randomized, placebo-controlled trial of creatine in children with spinal muscular atrophy
Objective: To determine whether oral creatine produces positive changes in any of 4 outcomes in children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Methods: The authors conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial on 55 patients aged 2-18 ...

Identifying epigenetic regulators of survival motor neuron protein to treat spinal muscular atrophy
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare monogenic disease of mostly paediatric onset, affecting approximately 1:8,000 – 10,000 live births. If untreated, it leads to progressive muscle weakness and paralysis, due to degeneration of lower α-motor neurons ...

ABSTRACT Objective Onasemnogene abeparvovec (OA) is an AAV9‐based gene therapy for spinal muscular atrophy type I (SMA I). Real‐world outcomes show increased response variability compared to clinical trials, and follow‐up data beyond 12–18 months are limited.

Clinical Validation of Plasma p‐217tau in Neurological Diseases
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐217tau is a minimally invasive but specific biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its disease specificity remains to be clinically evaluated. We validated the reliability of the p‐217tau biomarker in 12 other neurological diseases.

Spinal Muscular Atrophy With Myoclonic Epilepsy
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is defined by degeneration of anterior horn cells in the spinal cord. Progressive myoclonic epilepsy (PME) is characterized by myoclonic and generalized seizures with progressive neurological deterioration.

Pyramidal signs in a Caucasian patient with spinal muscular atrophy: a case report [PDF]
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), an autosomal recessive disease, is characterized by the selective loss of spinal motor neurons due to reduced levels of the survival motor neuron (SMN) protein.

ALDOA Promotes Glycolysis and NLRP3/GSDMD Pyroptosis to Accelerate ALS Progression
ABSTRACT Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by progressive motor neuron degeneration. Glycolytic dysregulation is implicated in disease progression, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates how Aldolase A (ALDOA) drives ALS progression through glycolysis‐mediated motor neuron pyroptosis.

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

Targeting the 5' untranslated region of SMN2 as a therapeutic strategy for spinal muscular atrophy
Nucleic acid therapeutics allow sequence-based targeting of disease genes, such as the genes involved in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) pathogenesis. SMA is a neuromuscular disorder caused by mutations in the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1).
