Background/Objectives: Essential tremor (ET) is the most common movement disorder worldwide. It negatively affects patients’ activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life. Unilateral transcranial magnetic resonance-guided focused ultraso...
Background/Objectives: The Charlotte Large artery occlusion Endovascular therapy Outcome Score (CLEOS) predicts neurological outcomes after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). Given recent expanded indications for EVT, we evaluated CLEOS in a modern coh...
Background/Objectives: The onset of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is thought to be related to fetal testosterone (TSTN) levels or the binding of neurexin (Nrxn) to neuroligin (Nlgn), as per some studies. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms...
Background/Objectives: Psychotic disorders with childhood or adolescent onset pose major therapeutic challenges due to their complex etiology and variable treatment response. While pharmacogenetics and neuroimaging biomarkers have independently shown...
Background: Large vessel occlusion (LVO) strokes account for a significant proportion of ischemic strokes and are often cardioembolic in origin, particularly following atrial fibrillation (AF) with thrombus formation in the left atrial appendage (LAA...
Objective: Several strategies have been described for stroke prevention, and the most commonly used medication is aspirin. Cilostazol, which is a substance with a pleiotropic effect, is still not well investigated. In this study, we aimed to delineat...
Background: Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a common cause of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in elderly individuals, and it is characterized by the deposition of amyloid β protein (Aß) in the walls of small-caliber cortica...
Background/Objectives: This is a retrospective review of 36 patients with electrodiagnostic (EDX) confirmation of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and ultrasound (US) detection of marked median nerve enlargement (defined as a cross-sectional area [CSA] o...
Background and Objectives: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune, inflammatory, and neurodegenerative central nervous system disease. Neurodegeneration plays a central role in long-term disease progression. Materials and Methods: This cross...
Foreign Language Syndrome (FLS) is a rare neuropsychiatric condition characterized by the sudden, involuntary use of a non-native language, with concurrent loss or suppression of the native language. Distinct from Foreign Accent Syndrome (FAS), FLS o...
Background/Objectives: Accurate diagnosis of brain tumors is one of the most important challenges in neuro-oncology since tumor classification and volumetric segmentation inform treatment planning. Two-dimensional classification and three-dimensional...
Depression is a common mental disorder with high economic burden, characterized by high disability and mortality rates. The etiology of depression remains unclear to date, and there are various hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of depression in c...
Background: Disease-modifying drugs (DMDs) for multiple sclerosis (MS) slightly increase the risk of tuberculosis (TB) disease. The QuantiFERON-TB-Plus (QFT-Plus) test is approved for TB infection (TBI) screening. Currently, there are no data availab...
Introduction: Myotonia is a rare neuromuscular condition characterized by impaired muscle relaxation. In this study, we provide normative values for clinical tests related to myotonia in the Hungarian population and compare them to patients with myot...
Background: Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare, inherited metabolic disease caused by pathogenic variants in CYP27A1. The clinical presentation of this progressive disease includes cognitive deficits, ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, and py...
Background/Objectives: The Lowenstein Communication Scale (LCS) is a tool for the evaluation of communicative performance in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC). This study investigated the reliability and validity of the LCS. Methods: We...
Background/Objectives: Endovascular thrombectomy has become a mainstay in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion. Among the multiple factors that influence outcomes, the choice of anesthetic technique—general an...
Background: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a treatable motor neuron disease. Biomarkers for skeletal muscle atrophy are extremely important for measuring the effects of treatment and monitoring the natural course of the disease. The urinary titin N...
