Resting-state EEG reveals four subphenotypes of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
2021
Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a devastating disease characterized primarily by motor system degeneration, with clinical evidence of cognitive and behavioural change in up to 50% of cases. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is both clinically and biologically heterogeneous. Subgrouping is currently undertaken using clinical parameters, such as site of symptom onset (bulbar or spinal), burden of disease (based on the modified El Escorial Research Criteria) and genomics in those with familial disease. However, with the exception of genomics, these subcategories do not take into account underlying disease pathobiology, and are not fully predictive of disease course or prognosis. Recently…

The population genomics of archaeological transition in west Iberia: Investigation of ancient substructure using imputation and haplotype-based metho…
2017
We analyse new genomic data (0.05–2.95x) from 14 ancient individuals from Portugal distributed from the Middle Neolithic (4200–3500 BC) to the Middle Bronze Age (1740–1430 BC) and impute genomewide diploid genotypes in these together with published ancient Eurasians. While discontinuity is evident in the transition to agriculture across the region, sensitive haplotype-based analyses suggest a significant degree of local hunter-gatherer contribution to later Iberian Neolithic populations. A more subtle genetic influx is also apparent in the Bronze Age, detectable from analyses including haplotype sharing with both ancient and modern genomes, D-statistics and Y-chromosome lineages. However, t…
