Purpose: Bypass surgery is regarded as the standard treatment option for symptomatic and hemodynamically unstable moyamoya disease (MMD). However, there is ongoing debate about the most effective type of bypass surgery. We aimed to analyze the long-term outcomes of combined and indirect bypasses for MMD patients through intra-individual comparisons.

Background: In recent years, research on risk estimation and early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) advanced swiftly. Studies are investigating the likelihood of developing Alzheimer's dementia (ADD), even during asymptomatic, preclinical, and prodromal stages of AD. Particular hope is pinned on blood-based biomarkers as these are less invasive than other methods such as lumbar puncture and Positron Emission Tomography (PET)-scan.

Objective: The purpose of this systematic review is to evaluate the original peer-reviewed studies on athletes who developed myocarditis after coronavirus disease (COVID-19) infection or after COVID-19 mRNA vaccination. Both entities likely have an immunologic component. We discuss elite, professional, college, and adolescent athletes.

We report the final primary and secondary outcomes of the Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network Trials Unit (DIAN-TU) trial to evaluate amyloid-plaque removal in delaying disease progression, including symptom onset, in symptomatic and asymptomatic dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease (DIAD) individuals treated for up to a decade.
Method: This double-blind, phase 2/3 trial (2012-2019), followed by open-label extension (OLE), investigated varying gantenerumab doses up to 1500 mg subcutaneous q2 weeks [NCT01760005].

Background: Anti-amyloid monoclonal antibody therapies for AD have documented plaque removal on amyloid PET scans. We evaluate the findings for amyloid PET, tau PET, FDG PET and volumetric MRI over the course the open label extension (OLE) for the DIAN-TU gantenerumab treatment, compared to the last imaging obtained prior to the OLE (to evaluate for potential rebound effects) and in comparison to longitudinal imaging in the DIAN Observational study.
