A tremor is a significant symptom of Parkinson’s disease, but it can also be a characteristic of essential tremor, thereby hampering even specialists’ ability to differentiate between the two. This study proposes a system that leverages a single RGB camera to evaluate tremor severity and support the differential diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor. The system captures motor symptoms, performs time–frequency analysis using wavelet transforms, and classifies severity and disease using linear classification models. The results showed an accuracy rate of 0.56 for disease classification and 0.50 for severity classification (with an acceptable accuracy rate of 0.96). The analysis indicated that there was a low level of correlation between disease and each feature and a moderate correlation (about 0.6) between severity and each feature. Based on these results, this study recommends classifying severity with a linear model and disease with a nonlinear model to obtain improved accuracy.

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports 46 101930 2023.1

Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is a neuroendocrine carcinoma with a poor prognosis and is a common cause of paraneoplastic syndromes. Paraneoplastic syndromes are characterized by neurological and endocrinological problems in patients with malignancy and are often associated with difficulty in induction of chemotherapy. Here we report the case of a patient with SCLC concomitant with two paraneoplastic syndromes, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) and Lambert–Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS), who was treated with a platinum-doublet chemotherapy regimen. A 66-year-old male patient presented with a 1-month history of progressive proximal muscle weakness, ataxia gait and 5 kg of body weight loss. The laboratory tests revealed hyponatremia due to SIADH and the existence of antibodies against P/Q-type voltage-gated calcium channels. The nerve conduction study showed a low amplitude of compound muscle action potential (0.38 mv), a 34% decrement on 3-Hz stimulation, and a 1939% increment after maximum voluntary contraction in 10 seconds (7.75 mv). The endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration biopsy revealed the pathological findings of SCLC. A 2-cycle chemotherapy regimen of irinotecan plus cisplatin resulted in temporary tumor shrinkage that lasted 2 months, but the improvement of proximal muscle weakness and hyponatremia were maintained over the tumor re-progression period after chemotherapy. Although paraneoplastic syndromes accelerate the decrease in performance status, chemotherapy for SCLC may improve symptoms related to paraneoplastic syndromes and could be considered in similar cases.

Ghrelin is a gastric-derived peptide that stimulates feeding, blood glucose elevation, body temperature reduction, and growth hormone (GH) secretion. Liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide 2 (LEAP2) is an endogenous antagonist of the ghrelin receptor, also called growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). We studied the effects of LEAP2 administration on feeding, body weight, glycemia, body temperature, and inflammation-related genes in the liver in C57BL/6 J mice and Ghsr-knockout (Ghsr-KO) mice. We found that a single administration of LEAP2 did not abolish fasting-induced food intake in 24-h fasted C57BL/6 J mice or Ghsr-KO mice. Moreover, continuous LEAP2 administration to mice fed ad libitum for 6 days did not affect feeding, body temperature, plasma ghrelin, or blood glucose. By contrast, continuous LEAP2 administration to calorie-restricted C57BL/6 J mice and Ghsr-KO mice induced body weight loss, hypoglycemia, body temperature reduction, and upregulation of Il-6 and Il-1β mRNAs in the liver. Our findings suggest that LEAP2 functions independently of GHSR, implying that LEAP2 affects physiology beyond the ghrelin-GHSR system.

OBJECTIVE: To study the presence of liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide 2 (LEAP2) in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and to measure its concentrations in neurological disorders. MATERIALS & METHODS: We identified the presence of LEAP2 in human CSF by chromatographic analysis and a LEAP2-specific enzyme immunoassay. We measured LEAP2 concentrations in the CSF of 35 patients with neurological disorders. RESULTS: CSF LEAP2 concentrations in the bacterial meningitis group (mean ± SD, 9.32 ± 3.76 ng/ml) were significantly higher (p < .05) than those in the other four groups (psychosomatic disorder, 0.56 ± 0.15 ng/ml; peripheral autoimmune disease, 1.00 ± 0.60 ng/ml; multiple sclerosis, 0.62 ± 0.30 ng/ml; aseptic meningitis, 1.59 ± 0.69 ng/ml). CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to identify the presence of human LEAP2 in the CSF. Levels of LEAP2 were increased in the CSF of patients with bacterial meningitis. LEAP2 may have potential as a biomarker for bacterial meningitis.
