A breakthrough in anti-IgLON5 disease research: patient-derived autoantibodies directly trigger neuronal hyperactivity, abnormal Tau redistribution/phosphorylation, and neuroinflammation — establishing a causal link between autoimmunity and Tau pathology. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Reports of the clinician’s demise are greatly exaggerated! Happy to share this editorial, led by Dr. Buciuc, on study “MOG-IgG Positivity Does Not Equal MOGAD.” Antibody positivity and criteria are powerful tools but they do not replace clinical judgment👇thejcn.com/DOIx.php?id=10…

In MS research, there is a strong correlation between preventing relapses and preventing disability progression, but these authors argue tolebrutinib is unique in that it prevents progression out of proportion to its ability to prevent relapses neurology.org/doi/10.1212/CP…

Status epilepticus doesn't wait & neither can we. New research in The Neurohospitalist exposes critical gaps in refractory SE treatment across 140K+ hospitalizations. The need for faster, more effective therapies has never been clearer. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/19… #NeuroCriticalCare

Four million physician hours are spent on mandatory modules each year. They represent not just clinical time lost but “evenings reclaimed and cognitive load reduced.” Redundant training and low-value modules should be a thing of the past. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

Clinical exposure isn’t enough. In this study, diagnosing pathology in skin of colour was consistently worse than on white skin, highlighting the need for better representation in education. #MedEd @asmeofficial …epublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

Thank you @AANmember for the platform! 🙌 NHS leadership covered it all at #AANAM, fellowship training, compensation, delirium leadership, emerging infections & more. Neurohospitalist medicine is growing, and we're proud to lead the way. #Neurohospitalist #HospitalMedicine

So exciting to see @mlevy18 present at #AANAM on satralizumab as the 1st proven treatment for attack-prevention in #MOGAD ➡️ A wonderful day for the #MOGAD community!

Congratulations to @drandrewb on receiving the 2026 @gginnovation Award! Dr. Boozary is recognized for leading the creation of Dunn House - Canada’s first hospital-led supportive housing initiative. Learn more about his trailblazing work: innovation.gg.ca/winner/dunn-ho…

Don’t miss SS8: Beyond the Buzz at #AANAM. Great to see Robert De Santis, MD, Neurohospitalist Fellow at @StanfordMed, featured on this panel exploring alcohol’s neurologic effects from clinic to ICU. #Neurohospitalist #Neurology #NeurocriticalCare

Such an important paper! @UofTNeurology @uoftneurons

Among patients with atrial fibrillation at high risk for stroke and bleeding, left atrial appendage closure was not noninferior to medical therapy in reducing the risk of stroke, embolism, major bleeding, or death at 3 years. Full CLOSURE-AF trial results: nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… Editorial: Left Atrial Appendage Closure — Another Overused Method in Cardiology? nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

This longitudinal, retrospective study found that the interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor tocilizumab shows promise as a potentially effective treatment in #MOGAD, and its subcutaneous administration may improve long-term therapy adherence: hubs.la/Q046cDYY0

See you on Thursday! DM for the link! 🚀

75% of Asian women with previously monophasic #MOGAD transitioned to a relapsing course after delivery, suggesting pregnancy can be considered with appropriate clinical monitoring. Study from the National Institute of Cancer Research & Hospital▶️ journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…
