How can Neurofilament light concentrations help in Diagnosis?
Overview Neurofilaments or NFL is a cytoskeletal protein which is expressed only in neurons. NFL is released into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood following damage to both central and peripheral neurons. NFL concentrations are reported to be high in neurodegenerative conditions. Results from the MIND study show that NFL measures vary in neurodegenerative conditions…
Execessive Neural Noise in Developmental Dyslexia?
Overview Developmental dyslexia (reading disabilities/disorders, or decoding-based reading disorder) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with multiple potential underlying genetic, neural, and cognitive factors. Past models have not been very successful at integrating key neural and behavioural features of dyslexia with common neural processes, until Hancock et al. (2017) proposed their dyslexia model. Dyslexia risk genes indicate…
