Truly a Herculean feat by our editing team getting this down to 24 mins 😂😅. Had so much fun nerding out with Annette, both during and after the interview! B-cell depleters are becoming the most popular meds for MS, but can they safely be used as a patient’s ‘forever drug’?

Kevin Lee, an MS4 The Ohio State University College of Medicine + newly matched into Neurology was diagnosed with a rare brain cancer in March of 2024.

Since his diagnosis, he’s had a brain biopsy, multiple LPs, and just finished his first round of chemotherapy.

Paul was a teacher >20yrs. He loves Sylvester Stallone &quotes him daily, his nickname is #Rambo . His family said it would mean the world if he can get a message fr Sly for his bday--the day before removing life support. Was not easy, but Paul's reaction--priceless. The 3 Wishes Project

Fantastic paper on risk of infections when using B-cell depletion in MS, and what increased that risk. The paper certainly warrants your attention, and there might just be a Neurology Journal podcast where we deep dive into the results coming soon… 👀

One of my favorite podcasts I’ve had the pleasure to record. A fascinating look at MS management through pregnancy from the patient perspective, and what we can do to better counsel our patients.

🤔Why is pulmonary embolism (PE) so rare in Behçet Syndrome?

The condition is associated with a 14-fold increased risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) but almost none of these result in PE.

What is it about the thrombus in Behçet that makes it so unable to embolize?

In the 🇺🇸, there are about 22,000 people living with neuromyelitis optica #NMO . Prevalence in 2022 was 6.88/100,000, with 3/5:1 female-to-male ratio, and with highest rates in Blacks.

1/Are you in a FOG about MOG?

MOG antibody associated disease or MOGAD is a relatively new demyelinating disease

Do you wish you knew mo’ about MOGAD? Do you know what to look for?

This week’s SCANtastic from @theAJNR will show all you need to know!
