Article Synopsis
  • The study compares two methods for measuring serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) levels in multiple sclerosis patients: the established SIMOA method and the newer VEUS method, which is more automated and user-friendly.
  • The results revealed significant differences in sNfL levels measured by the two methods, with SIMOA yielding notably higher concentrations than VEUS, despite the lack of correlation between the two.
  • The findings highlight the VEUS method’s tendency to underestimate sNfL levels, suggesting that caution is needed when interpreting results from different diagnostic systems.

Background And Objectives: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of the measles-rubella-zoster reaction (MRZR) in a large real-world multiple sclerosis (MS) cohort. Second, to compare MRZR with the determination of oligoclonal IgG bands (OCB), oligoclonal kappa free light chain bands (oKFLC), and the KFLC index.

Methods: A single-center retrospective study was conducted at the University Hospital Ostrava (Czech Republic).

Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) is a functional examination of brain tissue that characterises the state of cerebral perfusion and provides information about the current status of the circulation. CTP can improve diagnostic accuracy of ischemic stroke. Published studies showed that perfusion imaging improves the prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke in anterior circulation and allows patients to be referred for treatment outside the time window for administration of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) or mechanical thrombectomy (MT).
