Cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy (CALD) is an X-linked rapidly progressive demyelinating disease leading to death usually within a few years. The standard of care is haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), but many men are not eligible due to age, absence of a matched donor or lesions of the corticospinal tracts (CST). Based on the ADVANCE study showing that leriglitazone decreases the occurrence of CALD, we treated 13 adult CALD patients (19-67 years of age) either not eligible for HSCT (n = 8) or awaiting HSCT (n = 5).

Users' perceptions of BWS have not been explored. This study intended to evaluate the usability, user experience (UX), patients' perceptions of BWS, and health professionals' (HP) opinions on BWS monitoring.

- Genetic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is linked to mutations in the PRNP gene, with only two known families having the specific G114V mutation.
- The case discussed is the first recorded in Europe, involving a patient with no family history who initially showed memory issues related to the hippocampus.
- Despite normal initial tests, elevated tau protein in the cerebrospinal fluid indicated disease progression, emphasizing the need for genetic testing even in cases that appear sporadic.
The present work investigates the effect of alpha-, beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins (CD), i.e., alpha-CD, beta-CD and gamma-CD, on the oxygen evolution activity, the protein content and the uv-vis spectroscopic characteristics of thylakoid membranes.
