The Relationship between Rest Tremor and Underlying Lewy Pathology in Essential Tremor: A Clinical‐Pathological Study of 201 Cases

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Prospective studies demonstrated that essential tremor is a risk factor for Parkinson's disease. Identifying clinical markers for conversion from essential tremor to essential tremor‐Parkinson's disease would be of considerable value. Rest tremor can be present in advanced essential tremor and may be a harbinger of conversion. We examined (1)

Sex Differences in Associations of Lewy Body Disease with Alzheimer's Disease and Cognitive Decline

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective To investigate how sex and age at menopause influence the interplay between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Lewy body disease (LBD) neuropathologies, and their associations with cognitive decline. Methods We analyzed data from: (1) three Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center cohorts (i.e., the Religious Orders Study, Rush Memory and Aging Project, and

Exenatide Once Weekly in the Treatment of Patients with Multiple System Atrophy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Exenatide, a glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonist, has neuroprotective effects in preclinical models of multiple system atrophy (MSA). We investigated these effects in a proof‐of‐concept clinical trial. Methods In this single‐center, randomized, open label trial, participants with MSA were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive ...

What does it mean? Translating anatomical language to engage public audiences

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The language of anatomy, with its roots in Ancient Greek and Roman languages, is complex and unfamiliar to many. Its complexity creates a significant barrier to public knowledge and understanding of anatomy—many members of the public find themselves asking “what does it mean?”, and this can manifest as poor health literacy and outcomes.

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...
