Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease: patterns of worldwide occurrence and the significance of familial and sporadic clustering.

abstract：:We sought to determine whether the putative pontine micturition center in the human dorsal pons contains corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) neurons, and whether these neurons are depleted in patients with multiple system atrophy and bladder dysfunction. Brains were obtained at autopsy from 4 control subjects and 4 ...
