Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The cervical spinal cord (cSC) is highly relevant to clinical dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) but remains understudied using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We assessed magnetization transfer ratio (MTR), a semi‐quantitative MRI measure sensitive to MS‐related tissue microstructural changes, in the cSC and its ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a group of genetically heterogeneous neurodegenerative diseases causing progressive deterioration and reduced quality of life. Therapeutic advances have been limited by a lack of sensitive anatomic, functional, or diffusion imaging‐based biomarkers.

TUBERCULOSIS OF THE SPINE [PDF]
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1952 \Ve are indebted to Dr Dobson for a comprehensive analysis of the results we can expect from the best conservative treatment of tuberculosis of the spine. It is because Dr Dobson’s figures and opinions will carry great weight throughout the world that I venture to indicate a number of points on which one could legitimately disagree with his conclusions.

Timing and Predictive Value of Clinical Conditions Preceding Multiple Sclerosis in the UK Biobank
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives Multiple sclerosis (MS) patients often experience a higher incidence of clinical conditions before diagnosis, suggesting a prodromal phase. However, their predictive value and temporal trajectories remain underexplored. We investigated these aspects using the large UK Biobank's population‐based cohort, which provided clinical ...

Clinical Characteristics of Parkinsonism in HTLV‐1‐Associated Myelopathy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Human T‐lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV‐1)‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is the classic neurological manifestation of HTLV‐1 infection; however, this virus has also been associated with other neurological disorders. Concurrent parkinsonism is relatively rare and presents diagnostic challenges.
