Background: The interaction of CD40L and its receptor CD40 on activated T cells and B cells respectively control pro-inflammatory activation in the pathophysiology of autoimmunity and transplant rejection. Previous studies have implicated signaling pathways involving CD40L (interchangeably referred to as CD154), as well as adaptive and innate immune cell activation, in the induction of neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative diseases. This study aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, and impact on pro-inflammatory biomarker profiles of an anti CD40L antibody, tegoprubart, in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Objective: To quantitatively study the measurement data related to the bony posterior cranial fossa and explore the correlation between bony posterior cranial fossa morphology and the occurrence of hemifacial spasm.
Methods: A total of 50 patients with hemifacial spasm who attended the Department of Neurosurgery of China-Japan Friendship Hospital from October 2021 to February 2022 were included, and 60 patients with minor head trauma excluding skull fracture and intracranial abnormalities were included as controls. Cranial multilayer spiral CTs (MSCTs) were performed in both groups, and multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) was used as a postprocessing method to measure data related to the posterior cranial fossa in both groups.
