Background Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder in humans included in the group of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies or prion diseases. The vast majority of sCJD cases are molecularly classified according

Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Case report
Context: Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare disease that belongs to the category of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. The condition is invariably fatal and progresses with severe dementia with psychiatric signs and, with cortical, subcortical and cerebellar signs.

Plasma biomarkers in CJD reveal multisystem involvement, with neuronal injury markers showing strong discriminative performance and vascular proteins indicating blood–brain barrier dysfunction. In asymptomatic PRNP mutation carriers, biomarker changes are minimal and emerge mainly near disease onset ABSTRACT Background Plasma markers of neuronal injury

Does Improvement in Case Ascertainment Explain the Increase in Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Since 1970 in the United Kingdom? [PDF]
The aim of this study was to quantify the improvements in case ascertainment which are considered to explain the rise in the incidence of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

Consensus classification of human prion disease histotypes allows reliable identification of molecular subtypes: an inter-rater study among surveillance centres in Europe and USA [PDF]
The current classification of human sporadic prion diseases recognizes six major phenotypic subtypes with distinctive clinicopathological features, which largely correlate at the molecular level with the genotype at the polymorphic codon 129 (methionine,

Incidence of Creutzfeldt‐Jakob Disease in a Tertiary Care Referral Center in Mexico City
Abstract Background Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD) is a progressive, irreversible, and fatal disease associated with the misfolding of a protein in the central nervous system. Several surveillance programs emerged worldwide after the epidemic of the early 2000s. In Mexico, information about its epidemiology is scarce.

MRI and clinical syndrome in dura materrelated Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease [PDF]
Objective : Iatrogenic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (iCJD) is mainly associated with dura mater (DM) grafts and administration of human growth hormones (hGH). Data on disease course in DM-CJD are limited.

Late-in-life surgery associated with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease: a methodological outline for evidence-based guidance [PDF]
BACKGROUND: There is increasing epidemiological evidence of etiological links between general surgery and sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) with long incubation periods.
