To characterize morphological and molecular underpinnings of polymyositis with mitochondrial pathology (PM-Mito) in comparison with sporadic inclusion body myositis (IBM) and to define common and distinct pathophysiologic features with a focus on interferon (IFN)-associated inflammation and T-cell response. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, skeletal muscle biopsy samples and clinical and laboratory data from patients with PM-Mito and IBM were analyzed at Charite university hospital in Berlin, Germany.

Chronic axonal polyneuropathy is a common disease with increasing prevalence with age. It majorly affects quality of life and leads to difficulties with various activities. Persons with polyneuropathy often not seek medical care and thus the societal burden of disease is likely underreported. Given the aging populations, contemporary data on the prevalence and risk factor profiles of polyneuropathy in the general population are required.

Corticosteroids are used to treat the early stages of idiopathic facial paralysis (Bell palsy) in children, but their effectiveness is uncertain. We set out to determine whether prednisolone improves the proportion of children with Bell palsy with complete recovery at 1 month.

Compensation strategies are essential in Parkinson disease (PD) gait rehabilitation. However, besides external cueing, these strategies have rarely been investigated systematically. We aimed to perform the following: (1) establish the patients' perspective on the efficacy and usability of 5 different compensation strategies; (2) quantify the efficacy of these strategies on spatiotemporal gait parameters; and (3) explore associations between the effects of specific strategies and patient characteristics.

Identifying protein targets that provide cognitive reserve is a strategy to prevent and treat Alzheimer disease and Alzheimer disease related dementias (AD/ADRD). Previous studies using bulk human brain tissue reported 12 proteins associated with cognitive reserve. This study examined whether the same proteins from induced neurons (iNs) are associated with cognitive reserve of their human donors.

This study compares longitudinal changes in cognitive functioning and brain structures in male fighters who transitioned to an inactive fighting status without any further exposure to repetitive head impacts (RHIs) and fighters remaining active with continual exposure to RHIs.

Synaptic dysfunction and degeneration is a predominant feature of brain aging, and synaptic preservation buffers against Alzheimer disease (AD) protein-related brain atrophy. We tested whether CSF synaptic protein concentrations similarly moderate the effects of axonal injury, indexed by CSF neurofilament light [NfL]), on brain atrophy in clinically normal adults.

Chronic low-grade inflammation, commonly associated with cardiovascular diseases and risk factors, has been associated inconclusively with cognitive decline and dementia. The aim of our study was to evaluate whether low-grade inflammation, measured in midlife, is associated with a decline in cognitive performance after a 10-year follow-up. We hypothesized that low-grade inflammation, estimated by interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-[alpha]), and high-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP), is a predictor of cognitive decline in the general population.

CSF biomarkers [beta]-amyloid 1-42 (A[beta]42), phosphorylated tau 181 (p-tau181), total tau (t-tau), and neurogranin (Ng) can diagnose Alzheimer disease (AD) in life. However, it is unknown whether CSF concentrations, and thus their accuracies, are affected by concomitant pathologies common in AD, such as [alpha]-synuclein ([alpha]Syn). Our primary goal was to test whether biomarkers in patients with AD are altered by concomitant [alpha]Syn.

Cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) have cardiovascular effects in addition to their neurologic activity and might alter mortality. We wanted to know whether treatment with ChEIs modifies mortality in patients with dementia. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, ClinicalTrials.gov, and ICRTP, from their inception to November 2021, and screened bibliographies of reviews, guidelines, and included studies.

Neurologic complications have been associated with COVID-19, including delirium. Such complications have been reported to be frequent among intensive care unit (ICU)-admitted patients. We hypothesized that the rate of neurologic complications would be higher in COVID-19 associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) than those who develop ARDS from a different cause.

AB Diffuse infiltrating gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumors in adults. The 2021 World Health Organization classification for CNS tumors (CNS5 WHO) has significantly altered the rules for classification and grading of diffuse gliomas. Clinicians, including neurology residents and neurologists, will have to consider the changes that include the introduction of new tumor types, allotting established tumor types to other groups and substituting previously essential morphological features for additional molecular markers. For example, in the current classification, glioblastoma is defined as isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wildtype, grade 4.

AB Statins are the first line of treatment for hypercholesterolemia and of prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). It is estimated that 1 in 4 Americans over the age of 40 years use statins. In rare cases, patients may develop an autoimmune myopathy associated with antibodies against 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR). Anti-HMGCR-associated myopathy requires immediate discontinuation of statins plus initiation of immunosuppressive therapy.
