How well do plasma Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers reflect the CSF amyloid status? Hazan et al set to answer the question, and it seems plasma assays can act as a proxy for spinal taps jnnp.bmj.com/content/early/… Jonathan Schott

Lääkärikoulutuksessa hands on -opetus ja henkilökohtainen ohjaus ovat keskeisiä. Mitkään tutkimukset tai laitteet eivät korvaa lääkärin henkilökohtaista osaamista, tietoja ja taitoja. Oulussa neurologian opetus saa hyvää palautetta, mutta kasvavat kurssit lisäävät haasteita.

Huntingtonin taudin diagnostiikka vie joskus aikaa ja sairauteen sopeutuminen vie aikaa niin potilaalta kuin läheisiltäkin. Eurooppalainen harvinaissairausverkosto ERN-RND on julkaissut materiaalia tukemaan Huntington-potilaan matkaa; nyt myös suomeksi! ern-rnd.eu/potilaan-matka…

Miten Huntingtonin taudin geenitestiä hyödynnetään diagnostiikassa? Kirjoituksemme LL Lauri Setälän kanssa Duodecim-lehdessä. Perinnöllisyysneuvontaa tulee tarjota kaikille, joilla Huntingtonin tauti todetaan, sekä aina ennen ennakoivaa geenitestiä. Duodecimlehti

Extremely good discussion! Lot of activity around Europe right now, the crucial importance of healthy brains for our societies is increasingly acknowledged.

Do night and shift work increase or decrease your risk for later dementia? Spoiler alert: new research just dropped in Brain Communications by King-Robson and colleagues and it flips the script on what we thought we knew about night and shift work relative to later dementia risk.

This meta-analysis provides evidence that IV thrombolysis does not offer substantial benefit in patients with minor acute ischemic stroke and is associated with increased risks of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality: hubs.la/Q03yR5Yp0 #NeuroTwitter #NeuroX

If you have not been diagnosing SCA27b, Tony Lang says you are likely missing it. Watch out for episodic ataxia presentations that progress to typical ataxia. Thanks for bringing all of us up to speed today in Aspen. MDS #ataxia National Ataxia Foundation Ataxia UK

RFC1 associated disease is indeed an important & still often un-diagnosed condition; in addition to ataxia, sensory neuropathy and chronic cough are important clinical cues. Interestingly, RFC1 expansions also associated w Parkinsonism
