TL;DR: This paper developed guidelines for MS differential diagnosis, focusing on exclusion of potential MS mimics, diagnosis of common initial isolated clinical syndromes, and differentiating between MS and non-MS idiopathic inflammatory demyelinating diseases.
Abstract: Background and objectivesDiagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) requires exclusion of diseases that could better explain the clinical and paraclinical findings A systematic process for exclusion of alternative diagnoses has not been defined An International Panel of MS experts developed consensus perspectives on MS differential diagnosisMethodsUsing available literature and consensus, we developed guidelines for MS differential diagnosis, focusing on exclusion of potential MS mimics, diagnosis of common initial isolated clinical syndromes, and differentiating between MS and non-MS idiopathic inflammatory demyelinating diseasesResultsWe present recommendations for 1) clinical and paraclinical red flags suggesting alternative diagnoses to MS; 2) more precise definition of “clinically isolated syndromes” (CIS), often the first presentations of MS or its alternatives; 3) algorithms for diagnosis of three common CISs related to MS in the optic nerves, brainstem, and spinal cord; and 4) a classification schem

TL;DR: A predictive scoring system was created that identifies aneurysms more efficiently than current criteria and includes women, nonsmokers, and individuals aged <65 years, which expands the target population for screening by including at-risk individuals not identified with existing screening criteria.

TL;DR: It is reported that Six1 is required for the development of murine kidney, muscle and inner ear, and that it exhibits synergistic genetic interactions with Eya factors, and it is demonstrated that the Eya family has a protein phosphatase function, and its enzymatic activity is necessary for regulating genes encoding growth control and signalling molecules, modulating precursor cell proliferation.
Abstract: The precise mechanistic relationship between gene activation and repression events is a central question in mammalian organogenesis, as exemplified by the evolutionarily conserved sine oculis (Six), eyes absent (Eya) and dachshund (Dach) network of genetically interacting proteins. Here, we report that Six1 is required for the development of murine kidney, muscle and inner ear, and that it exhibits synergistic genetic interactions with Eya factors. We demonstrate that the Eya family has a protein phosphatase function, and that its enzymatic activity is required for regulating genes encoding growth control and signalling molecules, modulating precursor cell proliferation. The phosphatase function of Eya switches the function of Six1-Dach from repression to activation, causing transcriptional activation through recruitment of co-activators. The gene-specific recruitment of a co-activator with intrinsic phosphatase activity provides a molecular mechanism for activation of specific gene targets, including those regulating precursor cell proliferation and survival in mammalian organogenesis.

TL;DR: It is suggested that impulsivity and compulsivity each seem to be multidimensional, and Serotonin and dopamine interact across these circuits to modulate aspects of both impulsive and compulsive responding and as yet unidentified brain-based systems may also have important functions.

TL;DR: In this review, the evidence underlying a wide variety of IGIV uses is evaluated and specific recommendations on the basis of these data are made.
Abstract: Human immunoglobulin prepared for intravenous administration (IGIV) has a number of important uses in the treatment of disease. Some of these are in diseases for which acceptable treatment alternatives do not exist. In this review we have evaluated the evidence underlying a wide variety of IGIV uses and make specific recommendations on the basis of these data. Given the potential risks and inherent scarcity of IGIV, careful consideration of the indications for and administration of IGIV is warranted.
