Abstract

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathies (HSAN) encompass a group of peripheral nervous system disorders characterized by remarkable heterogeneity from a clinical and genetic point of view. Mutations in SPTLC1 gene are responsible for HSAN type IA, which usually starts from the second to fourth decade with axonal neuropathy, sensory loss, painless distal ulcerations, and mild autonomic features, while motor involvement usually occur later as disease progresses. Beyond the classic presentation of HSAN type IA, an exceedingly rare distinct phenotype related to SPTLC1 mutations at residue serine 331 (S331) has recently been reported, characterized by earlier onset, prominent muscular atrophy, growth retardation, oculo‐skeletal abnormalities, and possible respiratory complications. In this report, we describe clinical, instrumental, and genetic aspects of a 13‐year‐old Sri Lankan male carrying the rare de novo p.S331Y heterozygous mutation in SPTLC1 gene found by whole exome sequencing. Patient's phenotype partly overlaps with the first case previously reported, however with some additional features not described before. This work represent the second report about this rare mutation and our findings strongly reinforce the hypothesis of a clearly distinct "S331 syndrome", thus expanding the spectrum of SPTLC1‐related disorders.

16. Rasagiline improves sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effects of levodopa–rasagiline combination therapy versus levodopa therapy alone in the treatment of sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Sleep disorders including sleep fragmentation, REM sleep behaviour, and complex paroxysmal nocturnal motor behavioral disorders are common in PD, and they may precede by decades motor symptoms. Classical antiparkinsonian drugs have shown limited effectiveness in controlling these symptoms. Rasagiline is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAO-I) that ameliorates the symptoms of PD by inhibiting striatal dopamine metabolism. MAO-I are also able to increase melatonin levels in the pineal gland, and may therefore contribute to modulate wakefulness/sleep patterns and circadian rhythms. Methods: We performed a 12-weeks study in 38 patients (mean age:63-64 years; mean disease duration:1.92-2.15 years; Schwab and England activities of daily living scores: approximately 90%). Patients were randomly assigned to: levodopa (200-300 mg daily) (group A) or levodopa–rasagiline (200-300 mg+1 mg) (group B). Sleep parameters were recorded by means of PD Sleep Scale (PDSS) and sleep diaries. Results: The clinical characteristics at baseline of patients are summarized in Fig.1. Almost all patients reported difficulties in initiating and maintaining sleep. Mean total PDSS score was 104.7±21.5 in group A and 103.9±21.8 in group B, correlating with Hoehn&Yahr score (p=0.004).After 12 weeks, patients in group B showed a marked improvement on several aspects of sleep dysfunction, compared to patients in group A (p=0.019). In particular, patients in group B reported a lower sleep latency (Fig.2A), fewer night awakenings (Fig.2B) and longer total sleep duration (Fig.2C). When comparing scores for each item in the PDSS at 12 weeks, the most notable improvements in the treatment of sleep dysfunction referred to items 8 (nocturia), 10 (limb paresthesias), 11 (cramps), 14 (non restorative sleep), 15 (daytime sleepiness): patients in group B reported a lower score, indicating a diminished severity of those symptoms (Fig.2D). Conclusions: Our monocentric study, though small-sized, demonstrates the effectiveness of levodopa–rasagiline combination therapy as a treatment for sleep dysfunction in PD, which will hopefully be confirmed by larger studies.

Abstract

Delayed post‐hypoxic leukoencephalopathy (DPHLE) is a rare demyelinating syndrome that follows an episode of prolonged cerebral hypoxia after a relatively lucid intervening period of variable length. Although the pathophysiology still remains obscure, it has been suggested that hypoxic‐metabolic injuries to oligodendrocytes may play a crucial role. We describe the case of a patient with chronic respiratory problems who fell into a coma during morphine therapy. After a brief period of successful recovery, neurocognitive and behavioral disorders suddenly appeared and a diagnosis of DPHLE was made also taking into account the MRI picture. The antioxidant therapy has probably facilitated the almost complete neurological recovery within 4 weeks. A peculiar finding was the presence of anti‐CV2/CRMP5 antibodies in serum, which may stand as potential factors implicated in oligodendrocytes damage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background and purpose Some studies have shown that air pollution, often assessed by thin particulate matter with diameter below 2.5 µg/m3 (PM2.5), may contribute to severe COVID‐19 courses, as well as play a role in the onset and evolution of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, the impact of air pollution on COVID‐19 has never been explored specifically amongst patients with MS (PwMS). This retrospective observational study aims to explore associations between PM2.5 and COVID‐19 severity amongst PwMS. Methods Data were retrieved from an Italian web‐based platform (MuSC‐19) which includes PwMS with COVID‐19. PM2.5 2016–2018 average concentrations were provided by the Copernicus Atmospheric Monitoring Service. Italian patients inserted in the platform from 15 January 2020 to 9 April 2021 with a COVID‐19 positive test were included. Ordered logistic regression models were used to study associations between PM2.5 and COVID‐19 severity. Results In all, 1087 patients, of whom 13% required hospitalization and 2% were admitted to an intensive care unit or died, were included. Based on the multivariate analysis, higher concentrations of PM2.5 increased the risk of worse COVID‐19 course (odds ratio 1.90; p = 0.009). Conclusions Even if several other factors explain the unfavourable course of COVID‐19 in PwMS, the role of air pollutants must be considered and further investigated., Air pollution, often assessed by particulate matter with diameter below 2.5 µg/m3, may contribute to severe COVID‐19 courses. 1087 patients were included, of whom 13% required hospitalization and 2% were admitted to an intensive care unit or died.

Abstract

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathies (HSAN) encompass a group of peripheral nervous system disorders characterized by remarkable heterogeneity from a clinical and genetic point of view. Mutations in SPTLC1 gene are responsible for HSAN type IA, which usually starts from the second to fourth decade with axonal neuropathy, sensory loss, painless distal ulcerations, and mild autonomic features, while motor involvement usually occur later as disease progresses. Beyond the classic presentation of HSAN type IA, an exceedingly rare distinct phenotype related to SPTLC1 mutations at residue serine 331 (S331) has recently been reported, characterized by earlier onset, prominent muscular atrophy, growth retardation, oculo-skeletal abnormalities, and possible respiratory complications. In this report, we describe clinical, instrumental, and genetic aspects of a 13-year-old Sri Lankan male carrying the rare de novo p.S331Y heterozygous mutation in SPTLC1 gene found by whole exome sequencing. Patient's phenotype partly overlaps with the first case previously reported, however with some additional features not described before. This work represent the second report about this rare mutation and our findings strongly reinforce the hypothesis of a clearly distinct "S331 syndrome", thus expanding the spectrum of SPTLC1-related disorders.

Abstract

Pivotal trials showed the effectiveness of the monoclonal antibody ocrelizumab in relapsing and progressive multiple sclerosis (MS). However, data on everyday practice in MS patients and markers of treatment effectiveness are scarce. We aimed to collect real-world data from ocrelizumab-treated MS patients, relapsing-remitting (RR) and progressive MS patients (PMS), including active secondary progressive MS (aSPMS) and primary progressive MS (PPMS) patients, and to explore potential prognostic factors of clinical outcome. Patients were enrolled at MS centres in the Campania region, Italy. We collected clinic-demographic features retrospectively one year before ocrelizumab start (T−1), at ocrelizumab start (T0), and after one year from ocrelizumab start (T1). We explored possible clinical markers of treatment effectiveness in those patients receiving ocrelizumab treatment for at least one year using multilevel-mixed models. We included a total of 383 MS patients (89 RRMS and 294 PMS; 205 females, mean age: 45.8 ± 11.2, disease duration: 12.7 ± 11.6 years). Patients had a mean follow-up of 12.4 ± 8.2 months, and 217 patients completed one-year ocrelizumab treatment. Overall, EDSS increased from T−1 to T0 (coeff. = 0.30, 95% coefficient interval [CI] = 0.19–0.41, p < 0.001) without a further change between T0 and T1 (p = 0.61). RRMS patients did not show an EDSS change between T−1 and T0 nor between T0 and T1. Conversely, PMS patients showed EDSS increase from T−1 to T0 (coeff. = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.22–0.45, p < 0.001) without a further change between T0 and T1 (p = 0.21). PMS patients with a time from conversion shorter than 2 years showed increased EDSS from T−1 to T0 (coeff. = 0.63, 95% CI = 0.18–1.08, p = 0.006) without a further change between T0 and T1 (p = 0.94), whereas PMS patients with a time from conversion longer than 2 years showed increased EDSS from T0 to T1 (coeff. = 0.30, 95% CI = 0.11–0.49, p = 0.002). Naïve patients showed an EDSS decrease between T0 and T1 (coeff. = −0.30, 95% CI = −0.50–−0.09, p = 0.004). In conclusion, our study highlighted that early ocrelizumab treatment is effective in modifying the disability accrual in MS patients.

Abstract

Background: The MuSC-19 project is an Italian cohort study open to international partners that collects data on multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with COVID-19. During the second wave of the pandemic, serological tests became routinely available. Objective: To evaluate the seroprevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies according to the use of disease-modifying therapy (DMT) in a subset of patients included in the MuSC-19 data set who had undergone a serological test. Methods: We evaluated the association between positive serological test results and time elapsed since infection onset, age, sex, Expanded Disability Status Scale score, comorbidities and DMT exposure using a multivariable logistic model. Results: Data were collected from 423 patients (345 from Italy, 61 from Turkey and 17 from Brazil) with a serological test performed during follow-up. Overall, 325 out of 423 tested patients (76.8%) had a positive serological test. At multivariate analysis, therapy with anti-CD20 was significantly associated with a reduced probability of developing antibodies after COVID-19 (odds ratio (OR) = 0.20, p = 0.002). Conclusion: Patients with MS maintain the capacity to develop humoral immune response against SARS-COV-2, although to a lesser extent when treated with anti-CD20 drugs. Overall, our results are reassuring with respect to the possibility to achieve sufficient immunization with vaccination.

Abstract

Background: It is unclear how multiple sclerosis (MS) affects the severity of Covid-19. Methods: Hospitalization, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission and death after Covid-19 diagnosis of 1362 MS patients were compared to the age and sex-matched Italian population in a retrospective observational case-cohort study with population-based control. The observed vs the expected events were compared in the whole MS cohort and in different subgroups (higher-risk: EDSS>3 or at least one comorbidity, lower-risk: EDSS

Abstract

Delayed post-hypoxic leukoencephalopathy (DPHLE) is a rare demyelinating syndrome that follows an episode of prolonged cerebral hypoxia after a relatively lucid intervening period of variable length. Although the pathophysiology still remains obscure, it has been suggested that hypoxic-metabolic injuries to oligodendrocytes may play a crucial role. We describe the case of a patient with chronic respiratory problems who fell into a coma during morphine therapy. After a brief period of successful recovery, neurocognitive and behavioral disorders suddenly appeared and a diagnosis of DPHLE was made also taking into account the MRI picture. The antioxidant therapy has probably facilitated the almost complete neurological recovery within 4 weeks. A peculiar finding was the presence of anti-CV2/CRMP5 antibodies in serum, which may stand as potential factors implicated in oligodendrocytes damage.

Abstract

Background: Natalizumab is an effective therapy in relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), as it reduces lymphocyte transmigration through the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and induces lymphocytosis. Objectives: To analyse natalizumab-induced lymphocytosis (NIL) as a biomarker of drug efficacy. Materials and methods: We enrolled 50 relapsing–remitting (RR) and progressive–relapsing (PR) natalizumab-treated patients who had received at least 16 infusions and had been tested for lymphocyte count 24 hours before each administration. Clinical, MRI and hematological data were collected. Patients were divided into responders and sub-optimal responders according to the experience of at least one clinical and/or instrumental relapse during the treatment. Results: In 15 (30%) patients, an instrumental/clinical (14) or only instrumental (one) relapse occurred. We found a statistically significant difference in the mean percentage of the lymphocytes between the two groups over the first ten administrations ( p=0.04). The comparison between the time-to-relapse in the groups with high and low levels of lymphocytes showed that the group with a low NIL had a greater risk of relapse ( p=0.03). Conclusions: We suggest that NIL could be a biomarker of therapeutic efficacy in patients with RRMS treated with natalizumab, and that the risk of relapse may be higher in patients with a lower-than-expected NIL.

Abstract

Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare metabolic disease with autosomal recessive inheritance. It is caused by mutations of the CYP27A1 gene, which codifies for sterol 27-hydroxylase, an enzyme that is responsible for the synthesis of cholic acids. In CTX, cholic acid synthesis is impaired, leading to accumulation of the precursor chenodessossicholic acid) in various organs and tissues. The clinical manifestations of CTX include chronic diarrhea, early-onset cataracts, tendon xanthomas and neurological disturbances. Therapy with oral chenodessossicholic acid has been shown to provide significantly better outcomes for affected individuals; therefore, recognition of this disease and awareness of its suggestive instrumental signs is extremely important. In this study, we describe the imaging findings in a 43-years-old male who was diagnosed with CTX and studied through ultrasound, CT and MRI. It is important that the neurology and radiology communities are aware of this multi-imaging findings: recognition of them is important, as due to the high variability of the manifestation of this disease; it could impact on early diagnosis of a condition rarely seen, but manageable., (© 2020 The Authors.

Abstract

To examine the effect of high-dose interferon (IFN)-beta1a [44 microg administered subcutaneously (sc) 3 times weekly (tiw)] on tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), and any correlation with clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. Previously treatment-naive patients with RRMS and an Expanded Disability Status Scale score < or = 3.5 were enrolled. At baseline, monthly for the first 5 months, and then after 12 months of treatment with 44 microg sc tiw of IFN-beta1a, all patients underwent clinical examination, assessment of serum TNF-alpha and IGF-1 levels and baseline, 5th, and 12th months to MRI scanning. Mean TNF-alpha values decreased significantly from months 0 to 12 of the study (P = 0.003), but mean IGF-1 values showed a nonsignificant reduction (P = 0.265). Serum levels of TNF-alpha and IGF-1 were sometimes correlated throughout the study, but no significant interactions were observed between serum TNF-alpha or IGF-1 and clinical or MRI findings. A borderline significant trend toward higher basal TNF-alpha levels was found in patients who developed new T1 lesions at 12 months compared with those who did not (P = 0.057). Interferon-beta1a therapy may reduce serum TNF-alpha levels in patients with RRMS, without a clear correlation with disease activity.
