Article Synopsis
- * A specific case is presented of a 53-year-old male who experienced progressive myoclonus-ataxia and was found to have a new genetic variant (c.3835G > A) in the CACNA1G gene.
- * The study suggests that this novel variant may affect calcium channel activity and emphasizes the significance of genetic testing for understanding myoclonus-ataxia disorders.
Visual hallucinations in Lewy body disease (LBD) can be differentiated based on phenomenology into minor phenomena (MVH) and complex hallucinations (CVH). MVH include a variety of phenomena, such as illusions, presence and passage hallucinations occurring at early stages of LBD. The neural mechanisms of visual hallucinations are largely unknown.

The main objectives of this observational study were to identify the most specific pro-coagulative/vascular factors for multiple sclerosis pathogenesis and to correlate them with brain hemodynamic abnormalities.
Methods: We compared i) serum/plasma levels of complement(C)/coagulation/vascular factors, viral/microbiological assays, fat-soluble vitamins and lymphocyte count among people with multiple sclerosis sampled in a clinical remission (=30; 23F/7M, 40 ± 8.
