Suppa et al. explore rigidity in Parkinson’s disease, highlighting inconsistencies in its definition and interpretation. They propose new approaches to better characterise its mechanisms and clinical impact. shorturl.at/33TYt

🧩 #MOGAD can mimic #MultipleSclerosis The TRUE-MOGAD score helps neurologists in these tricky cases, as this patient (BMC): ➡️38y, titers 1:100, Focal+MRI features ➡️OCB present, no lesion resolution on follow-up 👉 Score= 1 → acute steroids ❌ <2 → MOGAD unlikely!

I am pleased to share our recent publication in the Journal of the American Heart Association (JAHA). Our findings further support the 2026 American Heart Association/American Stroke Association guidelines, demonstrating that intensive blood pressure reduction following

Have MULTIPLE questions about MULTIPLE sclerosis?   Having trouble seeing neuromyelitis optica?   In a fog about MOG?   Here’s the cheat sheet you NEED to distinguish the demyelinating diseases!   Demyelinating diseases predominantly involve the optic nerves, brain, & spine.

New technology helping settle old scientific debates👇🏽 In LGI1 encephalitis, patients with FBDS, thermal paresthesias or paroxysmal dizziness showed interictal epileptiform discharges on magnetoencephalography! 🔝⚡️Very elegant short report with rich data in Epilepsia

🚨 New study in Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery on aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) management 🩸 🧠 Anticipatory initiation of Intrathecal Nicardipine (ITN)—given before clinical or imaging evidence of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI)—significantly reduces DCI

IVIg for CIDP: Start with the loading dose (2 g/kg), then give 1 g/kg every 3 weeks. Schedule a follow-up visit in 9-12 weeks. Treatment response should be assessed using the INCAT score (at least 1 point improvement) and/or the MRC sum score (>2 points). If there is no response,

Among survivors of intracerebral hemorrhage, a single pill with three low-dose antihypertensive agents added to standard care was associated with a lower incidence of stroke and major cardiovascular events than placebo. Full TRIDENT trial results: nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Can you get the diagnosis when it comes to carotid stenosis?   Having some confusion about the strokes you see w/ICA occlusion?   Why are there so many different patterns of infarcts w/ICA occlusion/stenosis?   There are 5 main infarct patterns—and they reflect the different

Why does the room spin when you roll over in bed? Have you heard of BPPV. Kristin Walter and colleagues describe in a new person w/ disease page in JAMA what benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is, why it happens and how we can treat it effectively. Key Points: - BPPV occurs

🧠 A major paradigm shift is underway in neurocritical care, moving beyond static intracranial pressure (ICP) thresholds to dynamic ICP waveform analysis for patients with acute brain injuries! 📦 The classic Monro-Kellie doctrine of intracranial dynamics is evolving to account
