Sharon Fekrat MD, FACS, FASRS, director of the iMIND research team, shares the scientific rationale for using #retinal imaging in #neurodegenerative disease in a recent interview with Neurology Advisor! neurologyadvisor.com/features/retin…

Higher #Climate Vulnerability Index scores were associated with increased #stroke prevalence and reduced access to comprehensive stroke centers, driven largely by socioeconomic, infrastructure, and baseline health disparities. neurologyadvisor.com/news/climate-v…

Age-related changes in multiple #Alzheimer disease biomarkers accelerated at distinct inflection points, suggesting a potential window for #biomarker-based screening and monitoring before clinical decline becomes apparent. neurologyadvisor.com/news/mayo-clin…

Strong trust in online #health resources was associated with delayed clinical consultations, but use of #AI tools had lower odds of patients modifying their therapies without consulting a physician. neurologyadvisor.com/news/online-ad…

Individuals with #FunctionalSeizures have a higher mortality risk than the general population but a lower risk than those with epileptic seizures, with substantial comorbidity burden and persistent survival disparities across matched cohorts. #epilepsy neurologyadvisor.com/news/functiona…

Mike Sharma, MD, MSc, FRCPC discussed the OCEANIC-STROKE clinical trial, a Phase 3 study examining the efficacy of a #FactorXIa inhibitor on secondary #stroke prevention. #AANAM @AANmember neurologyadvisor.com/reports/video-…

Long-term adherence to the Mediterranean and #MIND dietary patterns is associated with a significantly lower risk for incident #dementia and slower cognitive decline, with greater adherence over time conferring additional cognitive benefits. neurologyadvisor.com/news/long-term…

Tuan Vu, MD, discusses the results of the NIMBLE trial, highlighting the efficacy of #cemdisiran monotherapy compared with combination treatment for patients with #MyastheniaGravis. #AANAM @AANmember neurologyadvisor.com/reports/video-…

Higher circulating #25hydroxyvitaminD levels measured in early midlife were significantly associated with lower global tau-positron emission tomography burden 16 years later, representing a potentially modifiable risk factor for #dementia. neurologyadvisor.com/news/vitamin-d…

Eptinezumab 100 mg IV combined with a brief educational intervention significantly reduced monthly #migraine days compared with placebo, providing evidence for an optimized approach to managing migraine burden. #headache neurologyadvisor.com/news/eptinezum…

Tavapadon significantly improved #MotorSymptoms and daily functioning in early #Parkinson disease, with benefits observed by week 5 and sustained through 26 weeks. neurologyadvisor.com/news/tavapadon…
