Influence of Lewy Pathology on Alzheimer's Disease Phenotype: A Retrospective Clinico-Pathological Study.

Background: Studies have shown the frequent coexistence of Lewy pathology (LP) in Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the influence of LP on the clinical and cognitive phenotype in a cohort of patients with a neuropathological diagnosis of AD.

Methods: We reviewed neuropathologically proven AD cases, reaching Braak stages V and VI in the brain banks of Lille and Paris between 1993 and 2016, and classified them according to LP extension (amygdala, brainstem, limbic, or neocortical).

Typical features of Parkinson disease and diagnostic challenges with microdeletion 22q11.2.

Objective: To delineate the natural history, diagnosis, and treatment response of Parkinson disease (PD) in individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS), and to determine if these patients differ from those with idiopathic PD.

Parkinson's disease associated with 22q11.2 deletion: Clinical characteristics and response to treatment.

Background: While it is known that 22q11.2 microdeletions (22q11.2-del) increase the risk of Parkinson's disease (PD), the characteristics of PD associated with 22q11.

Rapid detection of generalized anxiety disorder and major depression in epilepsy: Validation of the GAD-7 as a complementary tool to the NDDI-E in a French sample.

Objective: Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) in people with epilepsy (PWE) is underdiagnosed and undertreated. The GAD-7 is a screening questionnaire to detect GAD. However, the usefulness of the GAD-7 as a screening tool in PWE remains to be validated.

[Unexplicated neuropsychiatric disorders: Do not ignore dysimmune encephalitis. A case report of a dysimmune encephalitis with anti-leucine rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI-1) antibodies].

Introduction: Anti-leucine rich glioma inactivated 1 encephalitis is a common and a treatable etiology of autoimmune encephalitis. Its diagnosis is a challenge because the initial diagnostic work-up is often normal.

Case Report: A 48-year-old man experienced cognitive and behavioral troubles, facio-brachial dystonic seizures and a syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion.
