Clinical significance of common-stem lenticulostriate arteries in patients with internal watershed infarction
A common-stem origin of lenticulostriate arteries (CS-LSAs) is an anatomical variation that supplies a moderate to large section of the basal ganglia. We hypothesized that CS-LSAs with a patent orifice are loc...

Time Effects on Resting EEG in Children With/Without AD/HD
In this study we extend on behavioural evidence to examine the effect of time on EEG measures related to arousal and emotion/motivation in children with/without AD/HD. Thirty children with AD/HD and 30 age- an...

Open AccessInherited and multiple de novo mutations in autism/developmental delay risk genes suggest a multifactorial model
We previously performed targeted sequencing of autism risk genes in probands from the Autism Clinical and Genetic Resources in China (ACGC) (phase I). Here, we expand this analysis to a larger cohort of patien...

Open AccessResveratrol ameliorates prenatal progestin exposure-induced autism-like behavior through ERβ activation
Recent literatures indicate that maternal hormone exposure is a risk factor for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We hypothesize that prenatal progestin exposure may counteract the neuroprotective effect of estr...

The predictive accuracy of the black hole sign and the spot sign for hematoma expansion in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage
In patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), hematoma expansion (HE) is associated with poor outcome. Spot sign and black hole sign are neuroimaging predictors for HE. This study was aimed to ...

The SG13S114 polymorphism of the ALOX5AP gene is associated with ischemic stroke in Europeans: a meta-analysis of 8062 subjects
The association between ALOX5AP SG13S114 polymorphism and ischemic stroke (IS) susceptibility has extensively been investigated, especially in white populations; however, the results were inconclusive. Here, w...

Genetic association study between RIT2 and Parkinson’s disease in a Han Chinese population
Recent several meta-analyses and certain case–control studies suggested that the Ras-like without CAAX 2 (RIT2) rs12456492 increased the risk of Parkinson’s disease (PD) in Asian and Caucasian populations. Howeve...

Prevalence of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth in Chinese patients with Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is associated with gastrointestinal motility abnormalities that could favor the occurrence of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). The aim of the study was to assess the preva...

Rapidly progressive neurological deterioration in anti-AMPA receptor encephalitis with additional CRMP5 antibodies
Anti-α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) encephalitis positive for additional onconeural antibodies is rarely reported. Here we report the clinical features of a patient who d...

Association of three candidate genetic variants in RAB7L1/NUCKS1, MCCC1 and STK39 with sporadic Parkinson’s disease in Han Chinese
Previous studies identified that polymorphisms RAB7L1/NUCKS1 rs823118, MCCC1 rs12637471 and STK39 rs1955337 to be the risk loci for Parkinson’s disease (PD) in a Caucasian population. However, the characteristics...
