Population-based data on drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) are lacking. This retrospective study aimed to determine the prevalence and incidence of pediatric epilepsy and DRE in South Korea using health insurance claims data from the Health Insurance Rev...
Moyamoya disease is a cerebrovascular pathology characterized by progressive stenosis of the internal carotid arteries and their branches, leading to ischemic and/or hemorrhagic disorders of the cerebral circulation, primarily affecting children and...
Objective: To evaluate and characterize the cognitive changes in COVID-19 participants at 6-month follow-up, and to explore a possible association with clinical symptoms, emotional disturbance and disease severity. Methods: This single-center longitu...
There are approximately 2.5 million cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in the U.S. each year. Post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE), a sequela of TBI, has been shown to occur in approximately 15% of TBI patients. Pre-disposing risk factors for the develop...
Introduction: Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients harboring recessive gene variants exhibit a distinct clinical phenotype with an early disease onset and relatively mild symptoms. Data concerning individualized therapy for autosomal recessive PD...
High blood pressure (BP) and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) are two common risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage, potentially leading to cognitive impairment. Less is known about the relationship between BP and CAA, the examination of which was...
Animal experimentation has long been a cornerstone of neurology research, but it faces growing scientific, ethical, and economic challenges. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are providing new opportunities to replace animal testing with more...
Headache is a common disorder with high prevalence [...]
Glucocorticoids are used during glioblastoma treatment to prevent the cerebral edema effect surrounding normal brain tissue. The aim of our study was to investigate the long-term effects of multiple administrations of glucocorticoids onto the glycosy...
The relationship between nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and phytocannabinoids/endocannabinoids (pCBs/eCBs) has been investigated in a variety of models of peripheral illnesses, with little clarification on their interaction within...
Background: Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is a highly effective rescue treatment for patients with acute exacerbation of neuroimmunological disease that removes circulating autoantibodies and inflammatory components from the bloodstream. The aims...
Significant progress has been achieved in understanding Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) mechanisms and developing treatments to slow disease progression. This review article thoroughly assesses primary and secondary DMD therapies, focusing on innov...
In Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology, the accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ), a main component of senile plaques, activates glial cells and causes neuroinflammation. Excessive neuroinflammation results in neuronal dropouts and finally prod...
The pathology of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), a disease characterized by papillary edema and increased intracranial pressure (IICP), is not yet understood; this disease significantly affects quality of life due to symptoms including vi...
Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) following sudden acceleration and deceleration can lead to cognitive function decline. Various treatments have been proposed. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-invasive stimulation technique, is a...
Background: the aim of this study was to investigate the neurophysiological effect of anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies on central and peripheral levels in migraine patients. Methods: An observational cohort study in patients with migraine was performe...
