Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is a clinically defined syndrome with progressive movement and cortical dysfunction, caused by various underlying pathologies, most commonly tau-predominant pathologies such as progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration, or Alzheimer's disease (AD). Lewy-type α-synucleinopathies (LTS), TDP-43 proteinopathies, and mixed pathologies may also underlie CBS. [...]

In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), dextromethorphan/quinidine (DMQ) has been reported to reduce bulbar symptoms, including dysarthria and dysphagia. However, data on patients' perceptions of DMQ treatment are limited.Data on DMQ treatment were collected from 1065 ALS patients treated at 13 ALS centers between 10-2015 and 06-2025. [...]

There is currently limited information and guidance on utilising participatory research within forensic mental health settings. This systematic review aimed to explore the use of participatory research within those settings, identify helpful practices, barriers and challenges, as well as explore the impact reported of participatory research in research and knowledge production. [...]

Medical imaging fusion combines complementary information from multiple modalities to enhance diagnostic accuracy. However, evaluating the quality of fused images remains challenging, with many studies relying solely on classification performance, which may lead to incorrect conclusions. [...]

In mammals, specific brain regions such as the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricles harbor adult neural stem/progenitor cells (ANSPCs) that give rise to new neurons and contribute to structural and functional brain plasticity. In contrast, other vertebrates such as salamanders and zebrafish exhibit a widely distributed neurogenic niches throughout the brain, suggesting a greater neurogenic capacity in adulthood. [...]

Interdisciplinary collaboration between neurologists and cardiologists is needed to provide state-of-the art stroke care and individualized decisions about secondary prevention strategies. This highlights the need to establish working structures for joint decision-making between cardiologists and stroke neurologists. [...]

The prevalence of Alzheimer's disease neuropathological changes (ADNCs), the leading cause of cognitive impairment, remains uncertain. Recent blood-based biomarkers enable scalable assessment of ADNCs1. [...]

Background: It is well-known that in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and high education attainment, cognitive performance is typically better than expected based on the burden of brain neuropathology and neurodegeneration (Stern et al., 2018; doi: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2018.05.033). This resilience of the cognitive status was attributed to a sort of cognitive reserve (CR) accumulated by persons with high education attainment, which predicts a life with engaging job, intellectual, and social demands (Arenaza-Urquijo et al. [...]

In cohort studies, intake of insoluble cereal fiber is associated with multiple health benefits, including preserved cognitive functions. However, evidence from intervention studies is sparse. [...]

There are 14 modifiable factors that are associated with a significantly lower risk of dementia. We tested the interactive effect of modifiable factors, genetic determinants, and initial pathologic burden on the spatial progression and local amplification of tau pathology. [...]
