TL;DR: Interestingly, mutations predominantly in the N-terminal motor domain of KIF5A are causative for two neurodegenerative diseases: hereditary spastic paraplegia and Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pitfalls in electrodiagnosis of Guillain–Barré syndrome subtypes
TL;DR: Investigation of how serial recordings changed the classification of an Italian Guillain–Barré syndrome population into demyelinating and axonal subtypes found that axonal GBS is pathophysiologically characterised not only by axonal degeneration but also by reversible conduction failure at the axolemma of the Ranvier node.

TL;DR: Acute motor neuropathy with normal or brisk tendon reflexes, conduction block, and fast recovery appears to be a variant of Guillain–Barré syndrome.

TL;DR: Multiple evidence suggest that modulation of intracellular and extracellular Zn2+ might be an important therapeutical target for the treatment of a vast array of neurological conditions ranging from stroke to Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: Lithium was not well-tolerated in this cohort of patients with ALS, even at subtherapeutic doses, and the relatively high frequency of AEs/SAEs and the reduced tolerability of lithium raised serious doubts about its safety in ALS
