Importance: Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is a rare, rapidly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disease. Definite sCJD diagnosis can only be made post mortem, and little is known about the prodromal phase of the disease.
Objective: To compare drug prescription patterns before the clinical onset of sCJD between patients and matched controls for exploration of potential risk factors and to assess correlations between drug exposure and sCJD survival.

Background: Plasma p‐tau217 shows high promise as an AD biomarker. In some mass spectrometry (MS) studies, the ratio between p‐tau217 and the corresponding non‐phospho peptide tau212‐221 (p‐tau217/T217) was suggested to increase accuracy to detect AD‐type tau phosphorylation. However, disorders with rapid neurodegeneration or acute neuronal injury, are known to have increased neurodegeneration biomarkers e.

Introduction: Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare, rapidly progressive, fatal, neurodegenerative disease classified as prion diseases. There are many subtypes of this disease, but information about clinical presentation and investigation findings in Thailand is scarce.
Objective: To describe the clinical presentation, radiological and electroencephalographic characteristics of CJD encountered at Siriraj hospital in the past 10 years (between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2015).

Background: Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is a rapidly progressive and fatal prion disease with significant public health implications. Survival is heterogenous, posing challenges for prognostication and care planning. We developed a survival model using diagnostic data from comprehensive UK sCJD surveillance.
