We performed a random-effects frequentist network meta-analysis for patient-important outcomes. Results: We included 193 randomized trials.

However, understanding how iPSC-derived NSPCs compare to authentic spinal cord NSPCs remains unclear. This study thoroughly characterizes bona fide spinal cord NSPCs and their isogenic iPSC-derived counterparts, iPSC-SC and iPSC-Br. Methods: Human spinal cord and skin tissue were obtained with ethics approval to establish primary NSPC cultures. iPSCs were derived from these primary cells and differentiated into iPSC-SC and iPSC-Br NSPCs. Assessments encompassed differentiation, proliferation capabilities, immunostaining, and RNA sequencing for differential gene expression. Results: Functional and transcriptional differences were identified between bona fide NSPCs and iPSC-SC/iPSC-Br. Bona fide and iPSC-SC NSPCs exhibited spinal cord regionalization, while iPSC-Br displayed forebrain regionalization. iPSC-derived NSPCs shared features reminiscent of early developmental stages, including embryonic patterning genes and increased proliferation rates. Notably, differentiation profiles were most similar between bona fide and iPSC-Br, with substantial distinctions observed between bona fide and iPSC-SC. Conclusions: This study unveils unique regional, developmental, and functional characteristics distinguishing spinal cord NSPCs from iPSC-derived counterparts. Addressing these disparities holds promise for enhancing iPSC-derived NSPC therapies in spinal cord injuries, contributing to a deeper understanding of their potential applications in regenerative medicine.","PeriodicalId":9571,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques","volume":"8 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141099170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Retropulsion is one form of postural instability. Spontaneous retropulsion involves loss of balance without external provocation. Others have reported on retropulsion in the clinical setting while testing for postural instability but rates of spontaneous retropulsion in the community have not been described. This study examines the prevalence of spontaneous retropulsion in PSP. Methods: A retrospective chart review examined 60 patients from the Saskatchewan Movement Disorders Program with clinical and pathology-confirmed diagnosis of PSP. We identified patients who endorsed spontaneous retropulsion. The data was analysed with univariate logistic regression. Results: The study included 43 males and 17 females. Spontaneous retropulsion was reported in 18 (30%) patients. Among the variables, only sex showed a statistical significance (p = 0.0184) with females more likely to report spontaneous retropulsion (OR = 4.25). Other variables (PSP onset age, onset age of balance impairment, gait impairment, and disease duration) were not statistically significant. Conclusions: Our data suggest that spontaneous retropulsion is common in PSP, with females being at a significantly higher risk than males. This is useful information when counselling patients on risk-avoidance behaviour to prevent falls.","PeriodicalId":9571,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques","volume":"3 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141099394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: This is a single institution retrospective chart review, with 146 charts reviewed and 78 patients deemed eligible. Preoperative deficits and postoperative neurological deficits presenting prior to 1 month after surgery were captured. Imaging features such as tumour volume, edema, and other pertinent imaging characteristics were collected from preoperative and postoperative imaging. Results: Most patients that developed a postoperative deficit presented with motor deficits (55.1%), while only 1.3% of patients developed new or worsening tremor after surgery. On average, in patients with a new deficit, 26.5% of tumor was resected, and all patients had more than 19% of residual tumor. Conclusions: Postoperative neurologic deficits may develop after a subtotal resection when an average of 73.5% of tumor remains. The proposed threshold for tumor resection is greater than 26.5% to minimize the potential of neurologic worsening 1 month postoperatively.","PeriodicalId":9571,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques","volume":"1 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141099240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We report 13 patients with a radiologically distinct, focal, enhancing leptomeningeal lesion on brain MRI mimicking leptomeningeal metastatic disease. Methods: These patients were assessed at University Health Network between January 2001 and December 2023. Results: Median age was 68 years and 10 patients were women. All patients had brain MRI including contrast-enhanced T2-weighted FLAIR and T1-weighted spin echo sequences. MRI in all patients showed a focal enhancing lesion along the leptomeningeal surface of the brain. The MRI exams were reported as possible metastatic disease for the majority (9/13) of patients. Each lesion was curvilinear rather than sheet-like, and some consisted of multiple connected/branching curvilinear structures with the appearance of abnormal vessels. Some lesions had visible connection with a nearby cortical vein. The lesions were distinct from normal blood vessels. Follow-up contrast-enhanced brain MRI for 8/13 patients at a median of 3.9 years showed all lesions were unchanged over time. Conclusions: We describe a distinct kind of focal, enhancing leptomeningeal lesion on brain MRI that mimics metastatic disease. These lesions are likely a type of low-flow vascular anomaly. Their curvilinear/branching shape and intense enhancement particularly on T2-weighted FLAIR images distinguishes these lesions from tumor.","PeriodicalId":9571,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques","volume":"69 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141101464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
