Clinical characteristics of patients with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis carrying the pathogenic GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat expansion of C9ORF72.

TL;DR: The phenotype of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis cases carrying C9ORF72 hexanucleotide repeat expansions was described by providing a detailed clinical description of affected cases from representative multi-generational kindreds, and by analysing the age of onset, gender ratio and survival in a large cohort of patients with familial amyotroph lateral sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Usefulness and limitations of 99mTc-3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanodicarboxylic acid scintigraphy in the aetiological diagnosis of amyloidotic cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: 99mTc-DPD scintigraphy was confirmed to be useful for differentiating TTR from AL-related AC, diagnostic accuracy was lower than previously reported due to a mild degree of tracer uptake in about one third of AL patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multicenter case-control study on restless legs syndrome in multiple sclerosis: the REMS study.

TL;DR: RLS is significantly associated with MS, especially in patients with severe pyramidal and sensory disability, and these results strengthen the idea that the inflammatory damage correlated with MS may induce a secondary form of RLS.
Journal ArticleDOI

MRI and magnetization transfer imaging changes in the brain and cervical cord of patients with Devic’s neuromyelitis optica

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that patients with Devic’s neuromyelitis optica (DNO) and MS have different imaging characteristics of the brain and cervical cord, providing further evidence that DNO is a clinical entity separate from MS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Voxel-based morphometry study of brain volumetry and diffusivity in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients with mild disability.

TL;DR: This study supports the notion that ALS is a multisystem disorder and suggests that extra‐motor involvement may be an early feature of the disease.
