001) and prior deep learning models Hybrid DL ( P less then 0.001) and Image-Only DL ( P less then 0.001), trained on the same dataset. Mirai more accurately identified high-risk patients than prior methods across all datasets. On the MGH test set, 41.5% (34.4 to 48.5) of patients who would develop cancer within 5 years were identified as high risk, compared with 36.1% (29.1 to 42.9) by Hybrid DL ( P = 0.02) and 22.9% (15.9 to 29.6) by the Tyrer-Cuzick model ( P less then 0.001).
To explore the phenotypic spectrum of
-related disorders and specifically to determine whether patients fulfill criteria for alternating hemiplegia of childhood (AHC), we report the clinical features of 11 affected individuals.
Individuals with
-related disorders were identified through a movement disorder clinic at a specialist pediatric center, with additional cases identified through collaboration with other centers internationally. Clinical data were acquired through retrospective case-note review.
Eleven affected patients were identified. All had heterozygous missense variants involving exon 9 of
, confirmed as de novo in 9 cases. All had a complex motor phenotype, including at least 2 different kinds of movement disorder, e.g., ataxia and dystonia. Many patients demonstrated several features fulfilling the criteria for AHC 10 patients had a movement disorder including paroxysmal elements, and 8 experienced hemiplegic episodes. In contrast to classic AHC, commonly caused by mutations in
, tysmal elements resembling AHC. RHOBTB2 testing should therefore be considered in patients with an AHC-like phenotype, particularly those negative for ATPA1A3 mutations.
To determine whether severe perivascular space (PVS) dilation is associated with longitudinal cognitive decline and incident dementia over 4 and 8 years, respectively, we analyzed data from a prospective cohort study.
A total of 414 community-dwelling older adults aged 72-92 years were assessed at baseline and biennially for up to 8 years, with cognitive assessments, consensus dementia diagnoses, and 3T MRI. The numbers of PVS in 2 representative slices in the basal ganglia (BG) and centrum semiovale (CSO) were counted and severe PVS pathology defined as the top quartile. The effects of severe PVS pathology in either region or both regions and those with severe BG PVS and severe CSO PVS were examined. White matter hyperintensity volume, cerebral microbleed number, and lacune number were calculated.
Participants with severe PVS pathology in both regions or in the CSO alone had greater decline in global cognition over 4 years, even after adjustment for the presence of other small vessel disease neuroimaging markers. The presence of severe PVS pathology in both regions was an independent predictor of dementia across 8 years (odds ratio 2.91, 95% confidence interval 1.43-5.95,
= 0.003). The presence of severe PVS pathology in all groups examined was associated with greater dementia risk at either year 4 or 6.
Severe PVS pathology is a marker for increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia, independent of other small vessel disease markers. The differential cognitive associations for BG and CSO PVS may represent differences in their underlying pathology.

To evaluate the hypothesis that individuals with isolated dystonia are at an increased risk for suicidal behavior, we administered an anonymous electronic survey to patients with dystonia, asking them about their history of suicidal ideations and suicide attempt.
A total of 542 patients with dystonia completed an online 97-question survey, which captured the demographics of suicidal behavior and major psychiatric disorders. Statistical analyses examined the prevalence of suicidal behavior in patients with dystonia compared to the prevalence of suicidal ideations and attempt in the general global population and assessed the significance of risk associations between suicidality and psychiatric history in these patients.
Overall, 32.3% of patients with isolated dystonia reported a lifetime history of suicidal behavior, which was significantly different from the reported rates of suicidal ideation (9.2%) and attempt (2.7%) in the general global population. The prevalence of suicidality was higher in patients with multifocal/segmental and generalized forms of dystonia (range of 46%-50%) compared to patients with focal dystonias (range of 26.1%-33.3%). The highest suicidal ideation-to-attempt ratio of 41 was found in patients with generalized dystonia. Suicidality in patients with focal dystonia was significantly associated with history of depression and anxiety disorders.
Patients with isolated dystonia have an increased, albeit unrecognized, prevalence of suicidal behavior compared to the general global population. Screening for suicidal risk should be incorporated as part of the clinical evaluation of patients with dystonia to prevent their suicide-induced injury and death.

To improve the use of N-of-1 studies in rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders, we systematically reviewed the literature and formulated recommendations for future studies.
The systematic review protocol was registered in the PROSPERO International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD42020154720). EMBASE and MEDLINE were searched for relevant studies. Information was recorded on types of interventions, outcome measures, validity, strengths, and limitations using standard reporting guidelines and critical appraisal tools. Qualitative and descriptive analyses were performed.
Twelve studies met the N-of-1 inclusion criteria, including both single trials and series. Interventions were mainly directed to neuropsychiatric manifestations. Main strengths were the use of personalized and clinically relevant outcomes in most studies. Generalizability was compromised due to limited use of validated and generalizable outcome measures.
N-of-1 studies are sporadically reported in rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders.
