Background The diagnostic value of new criteria of the European Academy of Neurology/Peripheral Nerve Society (EAN/PNS) for chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is unknown. Methods ...

Background We evaluated the seroprevalence of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein immunoglobulin G1 (MOG-IgG) and associated clinical features of patients from a large adult-dominant unselected cohort ...

Objective To elucidate the common and distinct clinical features of immune-mediated necrotising myopathy (IMNM), also known as necrotising autoimmune myopathy associated with autoantibodies against ...

Background Previous proteomic work has identified the somatodendritic protein MAP2 as a new candidate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods We measured ...

Background Non-motor symptoms are highly prevalent in prodromal Parkinson’s disease (PD); however, their impact on PD trajectory remains largely unexplored. We aimed to assess whether prevalent ...

Objective Responsiveness to direct verbal suggestions (suggestibility) has long been hypothesised to represent a predisposing factor for functional neurological disorder (FND) but previous research ...

Background and objectives Biologically informative markers like glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and neurofilament light chain (NfL) may help predict confirmed disability worsening (CDW) in ...

Objective To retrospectively investigate safety and efficacy of nusinersen in a large cohort of adult Italian patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Methods Inclusion criteria were: (1) clinical ...

Anti-neurofascin 155 antibodies cause myelin detachment and ‘nodopathy’ in a subgroup of patients diagnosed with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy While peripheral neuropathies have ...

Background Associations between comorbidity and reduced persistence to disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) in multiple sclerosis (MS) have been identified. Limited information is available regarding ...

Background Plasma phosphorylated tau (p-tau) 217 test has emerged as a minimally invasive and accessible alternative to positron emission tomography imaging and cerebrospinal fluid analysis for ...

The increasing complexity of personalised medicine to deliver targeted and highly specific therapeutics to patients for their disease depends on the diagnostic accuracy of our clinical medicine. The ...
