Journal ArticleDOI
MRI cerebral white matter lesions and paraoxonase PON1 polymorphisms : three-year follow-up of the austrian stroke prevention study.
Reinhold Schmidt,Helena Schmidt,Franz Fazekas,Peter Kapeller,Gudrun Roob,Anita Lechner,Gert M. Kostner,Hans-Peter Hartung +7 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that the LL PON1 genotype at position 54 influences the extent and progression of WMLs in elderly subjects, and Logistic regression analysis yielded age, diastolic blood pressure, and LL paraoxonase genotype to be significant predictors of W ML progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines for autologous blood and marrow stem cell transplantation in multiple sclerosis: a consensus report written on behalf of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation and the European Charcot Foundation
G. Comi,Ludwig Kappos,Michel Clanet,George C. Ebers,A. Fassas,Franz Fazekas,Massimo Filippi,Hans-Peter Hartung,B. Hertenstein,Dimitrios Karussis,Gianvito Martino,Alan Tyndall,F. G. A. Van Der Meche +12 more
TL;DR: The consensus reached during the first Consensus Conference on Bone Marrow Transplantation in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis and the design of the clinical trial are summarized in this contribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of trace elements in human brain using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
Nikolaus Krebs,Nikolaus Krebs,Christian Langkammer,Walter Goessler,Stefan Ropele,Franz Fazekas,Kathrin Yen,Eva Scheurer +7 more
TL;DR: The presented trace element concentrations can serve as a fundamental basis for further brain research and allow a comparison with reference data from other studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progression of cerebral white matter lesions -- clinical and radiological considerations
Christian Enzinger,Franz Fazekas,Franz Fazekas,Stefan Ropele,Stefan Ropele,Reinhold Schmidt,Reinhold Schmidt +6 more
TL;DR: Measuring changes in the progression of WML may provide a valid surrogate marker in future clinical trials on cerebral small-vessel disease and power calculations based on quantitative data of the Austrian Stroke Prevention Study suggest that such studies would be feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI
MRI characteristics of atypical idiopathic inflammatory demyelinating lesions of the brain : A review of reported findings.
Alexandra Seewann,Alexandra Seewann,Christian Enzinger,Massimo Filippi,Frederik Barkhof,Ana Rovira,Achim Gass,David Miller,Xavier Montalban,Alan J. Thompson,Tarek A. Yousry,Mar Tintoré,N. De Stefano,Jacqueline Palace,Marco Rovaris,Chris H. Polman,Franz Fazekas +16 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that IIDLs reported as atypical in the literature can be segregated into several distinct subtypes based on their MRI appearance, which may be useful for the differential diagnosis and for a future classification.
