• Neuroimaging in the Acute Psychiatric Setting: Associations With Neuropsychiatric Risk Factors
  September 21, 2022 by Katelyn Tadd
  CONCLUSIONS: Brain MRI is a useful part of psychiatric management in the presence of certain neuropsychiatric risk factors. The present findings suggest that treating teams can judiciously tailor radiological investigations while limiting excessive imaging. Future research in larger cohorts across multiple centers may contribute to shaping more consistent neuroimaging guidelines in psychiatry.
• Increased cortical thickness in nodes of the cognitive control and default mode networks in psychosis of epilepsy
  September 18, 2022 by James Allebone
  OBJECTIVE: To explore the cortical morphological associations of the psychoses of epilepsy.
• Management of early treated adolescents and young adults with phenylketonuria: Development of international consensus recommendations using a modified Delphi approach
  August 26, 2022 by Barbara K Burton
  CONCLUSIONS: A multidisciplinary international group of experts used a modified Delphi approach to develop a set of consensus recommendations with the aim of providing guidance and offering tools to clinics to aid with supporting adolescents and young adults with PKU.
• Multidimensional psychopathological profile differences between patients with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures and epileptic seizure disorders
  August 23, 2022 by Michael Lloyd
  CONCLUSION: Multidimensional psychopathological profile differences exist between patients with PNES and ES. Patients with PNES report more psychopathology overall, with particular elevations in childhood trauma, dissociation, and depression. Although not suitable to be used as a standalone screening tool to differentiate PNES and ES, understanding of these profiles at a construct level might help triage patients and guide further psychiatric examination and enquiry.
• Sodium selenate as a therapeutic for tauopathies: A hypothesis paper
  August 22, 2022 by Roxane Dilcher
  In a large proportion of individuals with fronto-temporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), the underlying pathology is associated with the misfolding and aggregation of the microtubule associated protein tau (FTLD-tau). With disease progression, widespread protein accumulation throughout cortical and subcortical brain regions may be responsible for neurodegeneration. One of the syndromes of FTLD is the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), in which the underlying pathology is…
• Plasma Neurofilament Light Chain and Clinical Diagnosis in Frontotemporal Dementia Syndromes
  August 21, 2022 by Suyi Ooi
  CONCLUSION: Plasma NfL appears to differentiate FTD syndromes and mimics. However, a lower NfL may predict a slower, but not necessarily lack of, neurodegeneration and therefore appears limited distinguishing slow progressors from FTD phenocopies. Larger numbers of patients from all clinical groups are required to strengthen diagnostic utility.
• Clinical correlates of movement disorders in adult Niemann-Pick type C patients measured via a Personal KinetiGraph
  August 9, 2022 by Shaddy El-Masri
  CONCLUSIONS: Utilization of PKG measures demonstrated that bradykinesia is under recognized among NPC patients, and the bradykinetic patients were less likely to report concerns regarding falls. Additionally, the FDS rather than the DKS is sensitive to the abnormal involuntary movements of NPC-reflecting a differing neurobiology of this chorea compared to levodopa-induced dyskinesias. Furthermore, dyskinetic individuals performed better in cognitive assessments of attention which may indicate an…
• Exploring Links Between Psychosis and Frontotemporal Dementia Using Multimodal Machine Learning: Dementia Praecox Revisited
  August 3, 2022 by Nikolaos Koutsouleris
  CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Neurobiological links may exist between bvFTD and psychosis focusing on prefrontal and salience system alterations. Further transdiagnostic investigations are needed to identify shared pathophysiological processes underlying the neuroanatomical interface between the 2 disease spectra.
• Clinical impact of whole-genome sequencing in patients with early-onset dementia
  July 29, 2022 by Aamira J Huq
  BACKGROUND: In the clinical setting, identification of the genetic cause in patients with early-onset dementia (EOD) is challenging due to multiple types of genetic tests required to arrive at a diagnosis. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has the potential to serve as a single diagnostic platform, due to its superior ability to detect common, rare and structural genetic variation.
• Psychiatric manifestations of autoimmune encephalitis
  July 15, 2022 by Hannah Ford
  Autoimmune encephalitis is increasingly recognized as a cause of psychiatric symptoms. A wide spectrum of psychiatric manifestations have been described which may precede, follow or occur independently of neurologic features. Patients typically respond to immunotherapy, however diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic heterogeneity. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the psychiatric features associated with encephalitis mediated by autoantibodies targeting neuronal…
