Importance The etiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal neurodegenerative disease, is unknown. However, neuroinflammation and complement activation may play role in disease progression. Objective To determine the effects zilucoplan, an inhibitor C5, individuals with ALS. Design, Setting, Participants Zilucoplan was tested as regimen A HEALEY ALS Platform Trial, phase 2 to 3 multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled perpetual platform clinical trial sharing...
Abstract Background A repeat expansion in the C9orf72-SMCR8 complex subunit ( C9orf72 ) is most common genetic cause of two debilitating neurodegenerative diseases: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Currently, much remains unknown about which variables may modify these diseases. We sought to investigate associations between promoter methylation, RNA expression levels, length, their potential effects on disease features, as well changes over time within...
Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) are two devastating fatal neurodegenerative conditions. While distinct, they share many clinical, genetic, pathological characteristics 1 , both show selective vulnerability of layer 5b extratelencephalic-projecting cortical populations, including Betz cells in ALS 2,3 von Economo neurons (VENs) FTLD 4,5 . Here, we report the first high resolution single-cell atlas human primary motor cortex (MCX) its...
This work establishes regularity conditions for consistency and asymptotic normality of the multiple parameter maximum likelihood estimator(MLE) from censored data, where censoring mechanism is in form $1$-bit measurements. The underlying distribution uncensored data assumed to belong exponential family, with natural parameters expressed as a linear combination predictors, known generalized model (GLM). As part analysis, Fisher information matrix also derived both which helps quantify impact...
Abstract Background The gene C9orf72 harbors a non-coding hexanucleotide repeat expansion known to cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia. While previous studies have estimated the length of this in multiple tissues, technological limitations impeded researchers from exploring additional features, such as methylation levels. Methods We aimed characterize expansions using targeted, amplification-free long-read sequencing method. Our primary goal was determine presence...
Cortical hyperexcitability is a feature of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and cortical excitability can be measured using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Resting motor threshold (MT) measure excitability, largely driven by glutamate. Perampanel, glutamate α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor blocker, predicted to increase the threshold. This study aimed evaluate TMS functionally assess target engagement in perampanel ALS.We studied MT ALS...
AbstractIntroduction/Aims. Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is exceedingly rare and has been an enigmatic disease. Recent progress drastically changed this perception, with early biomarkers being investigated potential medications for PLS emerging at the preclinical stage. The aim of paper to describe a study natural history discuss limitations proposed solutions slowly progressive Methods. Natural History Study 30-site, 24-month, prospective that supported by multiple funding sources. aims...
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) spectrum is expected to support data-intensive applications that require ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC). However, mmWave links are highly sensitive blockage, which may lead disruptions in the communication. Traditional techniques build resilience against such blockages (among interleaving and feedback mechanisms) incur delays too large effectively URLLC. This calls for novel ensure resilient In this paper, we propose deploy multilevel codes over...
Objective: To study the association between ventilatory function and cognitive behavioral impairment in ALS patients accounting for effects of pertinent covariates. Methods: Four hundred eighty-one were identified from Mayo Clinic Florida registry who had concurrent forced vital capacity (FVC) testing using Cognitive Behavioral Screen (ALS-CBS). Multiple linear regression analysis was used to FVC relevant covariates on ALS-CBS cognition score, subscores, caregiver inventory. Results:...
Abstract Introduction/aims Muscle cramps are a common and often disabling symptom in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), devastating incurable neurodegenerative disorder. To date, there no medications specifically approved for the treatment of muscle cramps. Ameliorating ALS may improve sustain quality life. A widely prescribed traditional Japanese (Kampo) medicine against cramps, shakuyakukanzoto (TJ-68), has been studied advanced liver disease, spinal stenosis, kidney failure, diabetic...
Abstract Introduction/Aims: Muscle cramps are a common and often disabling symptom in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), devastating incurable neurodegenerative disorder. To date, there no medications specifically approved for the treatment of muscle cramps. Ameliorating this patient population may sustain quality life longer. A traditional Japanese medicine, shakuyakukanzoto (TJ-68) is widely prescribed Japan managing variety conditions. The ALS Management Guideline mentions TJ-68...
