This study evaluates the dosimetric impact of arc simulation angular resolution in VMAT-based Single Isocentre Multiple Target (SIMT) SRS, focusing on their dependence on target size, isocentre distance, number of arcs, and arc type. A phantom study analysed angular resolution (0.5°, 1°, 2°) effects on dosimetric accuracy for PTVs of 0.

Purpose: This study aimed to describe the incidence, clinical and pathological features, and outcomes of H3 K27M- mutant Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) patients with leptomeningeal dissemination (LMD) and systematically investigate the predictive and prognostic factors to clarify the response to treatment after the onset of LMD.

Methods: A total of 304 patients diagnosed with DMG from October 17, 2017, to October 17, 2023, were enrolled in this study, of which 32 patients were diagnosed with LMD. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the predictors of LMD, including clinical, molecular, and imaging data.

Explaining cognitive function in multiple sclerosis through networks of grey and white matter features: a joint independent component analysis.

J Neurol

Cognitive impairment (CI) in multiple sclerosis (MS) is only partially explained by whole-brain volume measures, but independent component analysis (ICA) can extract regional patterns of damage in grey matter (GM) or white matter (WM) that have proven more closely associated with CI. Pathology in GM and WM occurs in parallel, and so patterns can span both. This study assessed whether joint-ICA of GM and WM features better explained cognitive function compared to single-tissue ICA.

Audiovisual analysis of the diagnostic video polysomnography in patients with isolated REM sleep behavior disorder.

J Neurol

January 2025

Sleep Unit, Neurology Service, Hospital Clínic Barcelona, IDIBAPS, CIBERNED, Universitat de Barcelona, Villarroel 170, 08036, Barcelona, Spain.

Background: The diagnosis of isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (IRBD) requires video polysomnography (V-PSG) showing increased muscle activity and abnormal behaviors in REM sleep.

Objective: To describe in IRBD the behavioral manifestations occurring during REM sleep in the diagnostic V-PSG.

Methods: This is a systematic audiovisual V-PSG analysis of consecutive IRBD patients.
