Aim: To describe clinician and researcher perceptions of a new, patient preference focused approach to recruiting patients for research from primary care-based memory clinics. Methods: Memory clinic clinicians completed a survey and key informants completed an individual interview to gather their perceptions of this new program. Results: The majority of clinicians were 'satisfied' or 'very satisfied' with this recruitment approach and indicated that this approach would have minimal negative impact on patient care or create conflict of interest. Key informants valued the program for its patient-centred approach, the integration of research into care and potential for increased recruitment. Discussion: These findings are suggestive of support for this recruitment approach. Pilot testing will inform feasibility, effectiveness and process improvements.

目的:描述临床医生和研究人员对一种以患者偏好为重点的新方法的看法,该方法旨在从以初级保健为基础的记忆诊所招募患者参与研究。方法:记忆门诊的临床医生和主要信息提供者分别完成了一项调查:记忆诊所的临床医生完成一份调查,主要信息提供者完成一次个人访谈,以收集他们对这项新计划的看法。结果大多数临床医生对这种招募方法表示 "满意 "或 "非常满意",并表示这种方法对患者护理的负面影响最小,也不会造成利益冲突。主要信息提供者对该计划以患者为中心的方法、将研究与护理相结合以及增加招募的潜力给予了高度评价。讨论:这些研究结果表明,这种招募方法得到了支持。试点测试将为可行性、有效性和流程改进提供信息。

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with significant genetic influence. The LRRK2 gene is a major genetic contributor, particularly the Gly2019Ser mutation. This focused review investigates the global distribution of LRRK2 mutations, with emphasis on Gly2019Ser and other pathogenic variants. Prevalence rates of Gly2019Ser are highest in North Africa and the Ashkenazi-Jewish population, indicating a potential common ancestor and founder effect. Other LRRK2 mutations, including Asn1437His, Arg1441Gly/Cys/His, Tyr1699Cys and Ile2020Thr, exhibit varying global prevalences. Understanding these distributions enhances our knowledge of PD genetics and aids personalized medicine. Further research is crucial to unravel clinical implications and develop targeted therapies for LRRK2 mutation carriers.

帕金森病(PD)是一种神经退行性疾病,具有重要的遗传影响。LRRK2 基因是主要的遗传因素,尤其是 Gly2019Ser 突变。这篇重点综述调查了 LRRK2 基因突变的全球分布情况,重点是 Gly2019Ser 和其他致病变体。Gly2019Ser 的流行率在北非和阿什肯纳齐-犹太人群中最高,这表明可能存在共同祖先和创始人效应。其他 LRRK2 突变,包括 Asn1437His、Arg1441Gly/Cys/His、Tyr1699Cys 和 Ile2020Thr,在全球的流行率各不相同。了解这些分布情况有助于增进我们对帕金森病遗传学的了解,并有助于个性化医疗。进一步的研究对于揭示临床影响和开发针对 LRRK2 突变携带者的靶向疗法至关重要。

Aim: To examine Free-Cog, a recently described, hybrid screening instrument, as separate tests of cognitive (Free-Cog-Cog) and executive function (Free-Cog-Exec) to see if this improved screening accuracy for cognitive impairment compared with standard Free-Cog. Materials & methods: Free-Cog-Cog and Free-Cog-Exec were combined using Boolean logical 'AND' and 'OR' operators (serial and parallel combination), and also used to construct a stepwise decision tree. Results: Serial combination improved specificity and positive predictive value whereas parallel combination improved sensitivity, typical findings with these operators. Stepwise application identified groups with high and low probability of cognitive impairment but failed to differentiate adequately those in the intermediate uncertain diagnosis group. Conclusion: Study findings suggest limited benefit from reformulations of Free-Cog compared with the standard instrument.

目的:研究最近描述的一种混合筛查工具 Free-Cog,将其作为认知(Free-Cog-Cog)和执行功能(Free-Cog-Exec)的单独测试,以了解与标准 Free-Cog 相比,这种方法是否能提高认知障碍的筛查准确性。材料与方法使用布尔逻辑 "AND "和 "OR "运算符(串行和并行组合)将Free-Cog-Cog和Free-Cog-Exec结合起来,并用于构建逐步决策树。结果串行组合提高了特异性和阳性预测值,而并行组合提高了灵敏度,这些都是这些运算符的典型结果。逐步式应用确定了认知功能障碍的高概率组和低概率组,但未能充分区分不确定诊断的中间组。结论:研究结果表明,与标准工具相比,Free-Cog 的改良版带来的益处有限。

What is this summary about?: Previous studies have shown that people living with multiple sclerosis (MS) treated with cladribine tablets have fewer relapses (where new symptoms occur or existing symptoms get worse for 24 hours or more) and delayed disability progression (slowing down of the disease getting worse). The CLASSIC-MS study looked at the long-term effectiveness of treatment with cladribine tablets in people living with MS who had taken part in the original CLARITY and CLARITY Extension clinical studies.

What were the results?: Results showed that people treated with cladribine tablets maintained their mobility (the ability to move freely) for longer and experienced other positive effects long after their treatment ended, including being less likely to need further treatment for their MS.

What do the results mean?: The results obtained from CLASSIC-MS show that the benefits of taking cladribine tablets carry on even when patients stop taking the treatment.

本摘要介绍什么内容:先前的研究表明,接受克拉利宾片治疗的多发性硬化症(MS)患者复发(出现新症状或现有症状恶化达 24 小时或以上)的次数较少,残疾进展(疾病恶化速度减慢)的时间也较短。CLASSIC-MS研究考察了克拉利宾片对参加过最初的CLARITY和CLARITY扩展临床研究的多发性硬化症患者的长期治疗效果:结果表明,接受克拉利宾片治疗的患者在治疗结束后仍能保持较长时间的活动能力(自由行动的能力),并且在治疗结束后的很长一段时间内还能体验到其他积极的效果,包括较少可能需要对其多发性硬化症进行进一步治疗。

Aim: Evaluation of practicality and patient satisfaction of a glatiramer acetate (GA) prefilled pen in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Patients & methods: A cross-sectional, multicenter, observational study evaluating patients' experiences with the GA-pen 3 months after its first use by means of self-reporting questionnaires. Primary end point was the proportion of patients who were satisfied with the pen. Results: 80 patients participated in the study. The majority (83.7%) was satisfied with the pen and 95% rated its application as easy or very easy. Conclusion: Most patients were satisfied with the GA-pen and rated its application as easy or very easy. Among the 12 device features, starting the injection without an injection button was considered the most appreciated feature. Improvements in pen functionality and design might allow patients to overcome many difficulties with self-injection, even those leading to nonadherence. But, this hypothesis awaits further validation by real-world follow-up studies.

目的:评估醋酸格拉默(GA)预充笔在复发-缓解型多发性硬化症(RRMS)患者中的实用性和患者满意度。患者和方法:一项横断面、多中心、观察性研究,通过自我报告问卷的方式,评估患者首次使用GA笔3个月后的体验。主要终点是对钢笔感到满意的患者比例。结果:80例患者参与了本研究。大多数人(83.7%)对该笔感到满意,95%的人认为其应用简单或非常简单。结论:大多数患者对GA笔感到满意,并认为其应用简单或非常简单。在12个设备特征中,在没有注射按钮的情况下开始注射被认为是最受欢迎的特征。笔功能和设计的改进可能会让患者克服自我注射的许多困难,甚至是那些导致不依从的困难。但是,这一假设有待于现实世界后续研究的进一步验证。

Aim: Thorough diagnostics are a prerequisite for the optimal treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Biomarker-based diagnostics are standard in academia, data on practitioners' diagnostic workups is scarce. Materials & methods: Surveys in German and US healthcare providers (HCP) were conducted regarding diagnostics in presumed AD patients. A subsample of 153 German and 88 US professionals was analyzed in detail. Results: Fewer German physicians conduct AD diagnostics themselves compared with US colleagues (67% vs 99%; p < 0.0001). German doctors more often order diagnostics at other institutions (65% vs 45%; p < 0.005). No significant differences were found regarding the type of diagnostics ordered at other institutions. Conclusion: Diagnostic routines for suspected AD patients differ between German and US-American healthcare providers.

Aim: To assess bridging glatiramer acetate (GA) or IFN-β for relapse prevention in women with relapsing multiple sclerosis planning pregnancy. Materials & methods: Participants discontinued disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) and received GA/IFN (early- or delayed-start) or no DMT (control) until pregnancy. Results: Annualized relapse rate was lower in delayed-start GA/IFN cohort versus control during washout/bridging. During washout/bridging, bridging with GA/IFN in this cohort reduced clinical activity, while disease activity increased in controls versus baseline. Conclusion: More data on GA/IFN bridging are needed. Women with low relapsing multiple sclerosis activity in the year prior to DMT discontinuation due to pregnancy planning benefited from GA/IFN bridging with lower annualized relapse rate versus no treatment and reduced clinical activity versus baseline during washout/bridging and pregnancy.

目的:评价醋酸格拉替默(GA)或IFN-β桥接治疗对计划妊娠的复发性多发性硬化症妇女预防复发的作用。材料和方法:受试者停止疾病改善治疗(DMT)并接受GA/IFN(早期或延迟开始)或不接受DMT(对照组),直到怀孕。结果:在洗脱期/桥接期间,延迟启动GA/IFN队列的年化复发率低于对照组。在洗脱期/桥接期间,该队列中GA/IFN桥接降低了临床活动性,而与基线相比,对照组的疾病活动性增加。结论:需要更多关于GA/IFN桥接的数据。在因妊娠计划而停用DMT的前一年,GA/IFN桥接治疗对低复发性多发性硬化症活动性的妇女有益,与未治疗相比,GA/IFN桥接治疗的年化复发率较低,并且在洗脱期/桥接和妊娠期间,与基线相比,临床活动性降低。

Aim: This study investigates perspectives on computer-based assessments among elderly individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) in India for more efficient usability of digital assessments for this population. Materials & methods: Content analysis was conducted on 30 participants diagnosed with PD, who were interviewed for their preferences and perspectives on integrating technology in healthcare assessments. Results: Elderly individuals with PD in India favored paper-pencil assessments over computer-based alternatives due to limited technological familiarity, resistance to change, lack of trust in healthcare technology and PD-related motor challenges. Conclusion: Elderly patients with Parkinson's in India indicated their discomfort with computer-based based cognitive assessment. Addressing barriers toward digital assessments in India is crucial for their successful implementation in healthcare.

目的:本研究调查了印度老年帕金森病患者(PD)计算机评估的观点,以提高该人群数字评估的有效可用性。材料与方法:对30名PD患者进行内容分析,对他们进行访谈,了解他们在医疗保健评估中整合技术的偏好和观点。结果:由于技术熟悉程度有限,对变革的抗拒,对医疗保健技术缺乏信任以及PD相关的运动挑战,印度老年PD患者更喜欢纸笔评估而不是基于计算机的替代方案。结论:印度老年帕金森患者对基于计算机的认知评估感到不适。解决印度数字评估的障碍对于在医疗保健领域成功实施数字评估至关重要。
