Anti-dopamine receptor 2 (D2R) antibody encephalitis (D2R encephalitis) is a subtype of autoimmune encephalitis (AE). Lesions in affected patients primarily involve the basal ganglia, resulting in a range of psychiatric and movement disorders. A majority of cases reported to date have impacted children or adolescents, whereas we here describe a cas...

Walking impairment after stroke is associated with substantial limitations in functional independence, quality of life, and long-term survival. People in the subacute phase after stroke who are unable to walk are most likely to benefit the greatest from use of overground robotic gait training (RGT). This study will provide preliminary evidence rega...

Chronic overlapping pain conditions (COPCs), pain-related conditions that frequently occur together, may occur in patients with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and could impact illness severity. This study aimed to identify comorbid COPCs in patients with ME/CFS and evaluate their impact on illness severity. We used data...

Occipital nerve blocks are essential in diagnosing and treating headache disorders such as migraine, cervicogenic headache, occipital neuralgia, and cluster headache. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential compression points of the greater occipital nerve (GON), third occipital nerve (TON), and lesser occipital nerve (LON) which are t...

The aim of this study was to develop machine learning-based models for predicting acute cerebral infarction (ACI) in patients. We extracted the data of ACI patients and non-ACI patients (as control) from two hospitals. The Lasso algorithm was employed to select the most crucial features associated with ACI. Five machine learning algorithms-based mo...

Effective interventions for Multiple Sclerosis require timely treatment optimization which usually involves switching disease modifying therapies. The patterns of prescription and the reasons for changing treatment in people with MS, especially in low prevalence populations, are unknown. To describe the persistence, reasons of DMT switches and pres...

Deficits in spatial memory, orientation, and navigation are often neglected early signs of cognitive impairment or loss of vestibular function. Real-world navigation tests require complex setups. In contrast, simple pointing at targets in a three-dimensional environment is a basic sensorimotor ability which provides an alternative measure of spatia...
