Published in 2020 at "Journal of Neuroimmunology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jneuroim.2019.577088

Abstract: Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by a persistent infection with aberrant measles virus. Indoleamine-2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) initiates the increased production of kynurenine pathway (KP) metabolites quinolinic acid (QUIN), which has… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Neurosciences in Rural Practice"

DOI: 10.1055/s-0041-1740612

Abstract: Introduction  Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease occurring as a complication of measles infection that is still prevalent in low-resource countries. Clinical and electrographical variability in SSPE can lead to diagnostic delays.… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Clinical Infectious Diseases"

DOI: 10.1093/cid/cix302

Abstract: Background Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a fatal complication of measles. We reviewed California cases from 1998-2015 to understand risk factors for SPPE and estimate incidence. Methods SSPE cases had clinically compatible symptoms and measles… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Pediatrics International"

DOI: 10.1111/ped.14244

Abstract: Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a progressive neurologic disorder caused by the measles virus (MV) and is identified by positive MV‐specific antibody titers, detected mainly by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) tests in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).… read more here.
