Frequency and Phenotype of Coexisting Aquaporin‐4 and Autoimmune Encephalitis Autoantibodies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among 9457 aquaporin‐4 (AQP4) immunoglobulin G‐positive patients, 2071 underwent autoimmune encephalitis antibody testing and 85 (4%) had coexisting antibodies, most commonly cerebrospinal fluid glial fibrillary acidic protein‐IgG and N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor‐IgG, or serum high‐titer GAD65‐IgG.

Anticoagulation Treatment Response Among Phenotypic ESUS Clusters: Evidence From CASPR

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate treatment effect heterogeneity across phenotypic clusters of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke using causal inference methods. Methods From a retrospective, multicenter cohort of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke, we estimated the treatment effect of anticoagulation versus antiplatelet therapy in patients ...

Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging of Tissue Microstructure and Early Treatment in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Conventional MRI cannot resolve the coexisting pathological processes within multiple sclerosis tissue. Diffusion Basis Spectrum Imaging decomposes the diffusion signal into fiber, cell, and hindered ratios indexing axonal integrity, cellularity, and extracellular space, respectively.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists in Multiple Sclerosis: A Topical Narrative Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists (RAs) are a relatively new class of drugs that were initially approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and, subsequently, weight reduction in patients with obesity.

Investigation of Complement Activation and Cytokine Signatures in AQP4+ NMOSD, MOGAD, and MS

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Aquaporin‐4‐IgG seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+ NMOSD), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD), and multiple sclerosis (MS) are pathophysiologically distinct neuroinflammatory disorders. Complement activation is a major mechanism of injury in AQP4+ NMOSD, whereas its role in

Dysregulated Cholesterol Metabolism, Chronic Inflammation, and Disability in Severe Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysregulated lipid metabolism, which can affect remyelination and neural repair, has not been extensively investigated in progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS). The goal was to examine whether dysregulated cholesterol metabolism was associated with disability in PMS. Methods The study sample comprised 53 Severe PMS patients (Expanded

Irrational System Behavior in a System of Systems

2018 13th Annual Conference on System of Systems Engineering (SoSE), 2018
System of systems (SoS) failures can sometimes be traced to a system within the SoS behaving in unexpected ways. Due to their emergent complexity, these types of failures are notoriously challenging to foresee. This paper presents a method to aid in predicting unknown unknowns in a SoS. Irrationality initiators – failure flows emanating from one system

Medicaid IT as a System of Systems

2019 14th Annual Conference System of Systems Engineering (SoSE), 2019
This paper illustrates how information technology (IT) systems of systems (SoS) exist at three hierarchical levels, a micro, a meso, and a macro level, in the environment of the U.S. Medicaid program. An example at the micro level is used to illustrate the opportunity inherent in the Medicaid SoS to integrate Internet-of-Things technologies to advance ...

Sustainability of systems of systems

International Journal of System of Systems Engineering, 2014
The purpose of this paper is to synthesise multiple worldviews of system of systems and introduce sustainability as a prerequisite for the development of the field. Fundamentally, systems of systems provide significantly greater capability than constituent systems.

System of Systems - the meaning of of

2006 IEEE/SMC International Conference on System of Systems Engineering, 2006
We present distinguishing characteristics (i.e. autonomy, belonging, connectivity, diversity, and emergence), that can help us to recognize or to realize a System of Systems (SoS). The principle differentiation that we make between a thing being either a 'system' or a SoS focuses on the nature of a system's composition.
