🎉 Congratulations to Dr. Sylvain Lehmann and their team for their outstanding publication in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Psychiatry! This study provides vital early evidence that elevated pTau217 levels can predict progression from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer’s disease (AD); individuals who transitioned from MCI to AD exhibited a 70% higher pTau217 level. Prediction of conversion to AD will be a valuable insight for optimizing individualized treatment plans. The authors also found that renal function (eGFR, creatine) had minimal impact on plasma pTau217 performance, but did affect pTau181 performance. The robustness of pTau217 performance was attributed to the high fold change between amyloid-negative and amyloid-positive states for plasma pTau217. This study is a key early step in understanding how to predict progression from MCI to Alzheimer’s disease, which will have profound implications for optimizing clinical care of this difficult disease. #AlzheimersResearch #JournalPublication #Neurology #Neurosurgery #Psychiatry #MedicalResearch Read more: https://lnkd.in/gRH4CvKj

We are buzzing with excitement about next month's Brain Bee, which we will hosting here UMass Chan Medical School on March 16th. Deadline for registration is March 8th.

Congratulations to everyone who matched into their desired specialties today! For those who unfortunately did not match and are interested in a remote research opportunity, our lab, the Global Neurosurgical Alliance, a 501(c)(3) organization composed of over 300 medical students and physician-scientists from around the world, is hiring. The link is in my bio. Hopefully, we can introduce you to the beauty of academics through a publishable paper. #Match2024 #USMDs #IMGs, #Neurosurgery, #Neurology, #MedLinkedin, #NeuroLinkedin, #psychiatry

https://lnkd.in/gqTjJ76t                                                   Article title: Suspicion of a teenager with Duchenne disease in the pediatrics department of Sainte Thérèse De Hinche Hospital   Author(s): Berley Alphonse, Michelande Elien, Edisond Florial, Andorie Samanda Labonte, Chrismy Augustin, Phélès Dagerus Journal: Journal of Neurology, Neurological Science and Disorders   Journal ISSN: 2641-2950 Abstract: Duchenne disease is caused by a deletion of the gene coding for dystrophin. The absence of this protein is responsible for the myonecrosis observed during the evolution of the pathology. It is X-linked recessive which explains its occurrence, especially in boys. The manifestation of the disease begins in 3 years - 5 years, and the life expectancy is 20 years - 30 years. #Gowersign #Pseudocalfhypertrophy #Paresis #Creatininekinase #Aldolase #LancetNeurology #PediatricNeurology #ChildNeurology #ClinicalNeurology #PracticalNeurology #DiseaseNeurology #ExperimentalNeurology #NeurologyStroke #Neurosurgery #InterventionalNeurology #VascularNeurology #NeurodevelopmentalDisabilities #NeuromuscularMedicine #RestorativeNeurology #TropicalNeurology #NeurologicalDisorders #Headaches #Radiculopathy #Neuropathy #Stroke #Dementia #Seizures #Epilepsy #Peertechz #PeertechzPublications #ADHD #Neurodegeneration #NeuroimmunologicalDisorders #CerebrovascularAttack #MoodDisorders #MultipleSclerosis #Glioblastoma #AutonomicDisorders #MemoryDisorders #MovementDisorders #NeurophysiologicMonitoring #NeuralCircuits #NeuralNetworks #Neurogenesis #Neuroimaging #Neuropathology #Neuropsychiatry #Neuropsychology #Neuroscience #ObesityOlfaction #Oligodendrocytes #OrbitofrontalCortex #Oscillations #ParkinsonsDisease #Perception #PET #Plasticity #PrefrontalCortex #ProteinAggregation #ProteinMisfolding #Psychopharmacology #Psychophysics #Psychosis #Reconsolidation #Regeneration #Rehabilitation #Remyelination #VitaminB12Deficiency #ClinicalNeurophysiology #BrainInjuryMedicine #Neuroradiology #Neuroophthalmology #Neuroendocrinology #Neuroepidemiology #Neurogenetics #Neuroimmunology #Neuropharmacology #Neurophysiology #Neuropsychology #Neurosurgery #Neurooncology #Neurotoxicology #Neuromorphology #Neuroanatomy #Neurochemistry #Neurobiology #NeuromuscularDiseases #BasicSciences #TranslationalSciences #Neurotrophic #NeuroprotectiveEffects

Next week, PlatoScience and I will be in #Amsterdam at the IASP 2024 World Congress on Pain. Come and meet me at our partner Magstim's stand. Many studies have shown that #neuromodulation such as electrical or magnetic stimulation reduces pain intensity. Non-invasive neuromodulation strategies have been used for decades as a non-pharmacological option for chronic pain. The PlatoWork headset uses tDCS technology: transcranial Direct Current Stimulation, an evidence-based, non-invasive, neuromodulation technique for supporting neurological change. Curious to try? We are happy to demonstrate how tDCS works in practice. If you are not in Amsterdam, contact me if you also want to know how this technology can help your patients.
