A system of diagnostic tests (complement enzyme assay) is developed, detecting viral and other antigens, toxins, antibodies, and specific immune complexes in liquid enzyme immunoassay based on the complement fixation test. The system is simple and economic, the results can be transferred into digital data, and the above factors can be detected individually in biological materials from patients. The system is effective, and in many cases (for example, in the diagnosis of enteroviral diseases) is the only method for rapid isolation and typing of the infection agents.

Cement-augmented pedicle screw instrumentation is a widely accepted method for managing osteoporotic fractures, but it carries inherent risks, particularly related to cement leakage and embolism. This study aimed to analyze a clinical case of complications following cement fixation and provide a detailed review of relevant literature. A 70-year-old patient underwent transpedicular screw instrumentation from L2-L4 with polymethyl methacrylate augmentation, which resulted in cement leakage into the spinal canal and subsequent pulmonary embolism.

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a widely used and effective tool for detection of anti-Brucella antibodies in serum, easy to perform with high sensitivity and specificity. In this study, we validated an in-house indirect ELISA using B. melitensis whole cell lysate as antigen (Bm-WCL iELISA) for the serodiagnosis of caprine brucellosis and evaluated the use of BSL-2 B.

Conformational Antibodies to Proteolipid Protein-1 and Its Peripheral Isoform DM20 in Patients With CNS Autoimmune Demyelinating Disorders.

Neurol Neuroimmunol Neuroinflamm

March 2025

Neuroimmunology Laboratory and Neuroimmunology Research Section, IRCCS Mondino Foundation, Pavia, Italy.

Background And Objectives: Antibodies to proteolipid protein-1 (PLP1-IgG), a major central myelin protein also expressed in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) as the isoform DM20, have been previously identified mostly in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), with unclear clinical implications. However, most studies relied on nonconformational immunoassays and included few patients with non-MS CNS autoimmune demyelinating disorders (ADDs). We aimed to investigate conformational PLP1-IgG in the whole ADD spectrum.

Neurovisual Training With Acoustic Feedback: An Innovative Approach for Nystagmus Rehabilitation.

Arch Rehabil Res Clin Transl

Section of Neurorehabilitation, Department of Translational Research and New Technologies in Medicine and Surgery, University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy.

Nystagmus has various clinical manifestations, including downbeat, upbeat, and torsional types, each associated with distinct neurologic features. Current rehabilitative interventions focusing on fixation training and optical correction often fail to achieve complete resolution. When nystagmus coexists with fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), functional impairments worsen, particularly affecting balance.

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an acquired autoimmune bullous disease that often occurs in elderly patients. Some BP patients with early age of disease onset were observed to have difficulty in receiving applicable disease control. It remains challenging for clinicians to choose the appropriate treatment for these patients.
