Neurodynamic tests for patellofemoral pain syndrome: A pilot study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05-08)Background Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common musculoskeletal disorder. There is little consensus on the etiology, but one explanatory model suggests that PFPS can be caused by referred pain. Neurodynamic tests ... -
Neurofeedback for the treatment of children and adolescents with ADHD: a randomized and controlled clinical trial using parental reports
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-08-10)Background: A randomized and controlled clinical study was performed to evaluate the use of neurofeedback (NF) to treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents. Methods: The ADHD population ... -
Neurofilament and Brain Atrophy and Their Association with Cognition in Multiple Sclerosis: A 10-Year Follow-Up Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction. Cognitive impairment is an important contributor to disability in multiple sclerosis (MS). Disconnection of neuronal circuits due to axonal injury is probably an important underlying mechanism for this ... -
Neurofilament light chain as a biomarker in multiple sclerosis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-04-05)Due to the unpredictable course and heterogenous treatment response in multiple sclerosis (MS), there is a clear need for biomarkers that reflect disease activity in the clinical follow-up of these patients. Neurofilaments ... -
Neurofilament light chain predicts disease activity in relapsing-remitting MS
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Objective: To investigate whether serum neurofilament light chain (NF-L) and chitinase 3-like 1 (CHI3L1) predict disease activity in relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS). Methods: A cohort of 85 patients with RRMS were followed ... -
Neurofilament light is a biomarker of brain involvement in lupus and primary Sjögren’s syndrome
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background To test the hypothesis that neurofilament light (NfL) in CSF is a biomarker of CNS involvement in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS), we measured NfL in CSF ... -
Neuroinflammation Associated With Inborn Errors of Immunity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The advent of high-throughput sequencing has facilitated genotype-phenotype correlations in congenital diseases. This has provided molecular diagnosis and benefited patient management but has also revealed substantial ... -
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome: An easily overlooked neurologic emergency
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-01-16)Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is an unpredictable iatrogenic neurologic emergency condition, mainly arising as an idiosyncratic reaction to antipsychotic agent use. It is characterized by distinctive clinical features ... -
Neurological disorders in Northern Tanzania: A 6-year prospective hospital-based case series
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: The burden of neurological disorders is large and altered by the HIV epidemic. Objectives: We describe the pattern of neurological disorders and their association with HIV infection in adult patients attending ... -
