Introduction: We investigated longitudinal associations between self-reported exercise and Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related biomarkers in individuals with autosomal dominant AD (ADAD) mutations.
Methods: Participants ...
Background: Approximately 40% of dementia cases worldwide are attributable to 12 potentially modifiable risk factors. However, the proportion attributable to these risks in Latin America remains unknown. We aimed to determine ...
In recent years, there has been significant advancement in the utilization of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnostic evaluation of patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). The 2017 McDonald criteria have ...

Estimates of the spectrum and frequency of pathogenic variants in Parkinson's disease (PD) in different populations are currently limited and biased. Furthermore, although therapeutic modification of several genetic targets ...
Background: Leukocyte telomere length (LTL) shortens with age and may be related to multiple sclerosis (MS).
Objective: We hypothesize that chronologically young people with MS (pwMS) with short LTL behave similarly to ...

We report the generation of a gene-edited human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from an Alzheimer's disease patient-derived iPSC line harbouring the PSEN1 H163R mutation. This line demonstrates pluripotent stem ...
Objectives: To describe the availability and barriers to access post-stroke rehabilitation services in Latin America.
Materials and methods: We conducted a multi-national survey in Latin American countries. The survey ...
While age-specific dementia prevalence is falling in many countries, several recent reviews estimate prevalence in Latin America to be higher than anywhere else in the world. This may be, in part, due to the high incidence ...
Background: Immunosuppressive therapies as azathioprine (AZA), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and rituximab (RTX) are widely prescribed as first-line treatment to prevent relapses in NMOSD. However, the rate of response to ...
