Summary
This study looks back at the medical records of 150 people diagnosed with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), a rare and fast-moving brain disorder. Researchers will examine symptoms, blood tests, spinal fluid, brain scans, and EEG results to find patterns that could help doctors diagnose CJD more quickly. No new treatments or tests are given—this is purely an observational study to gather knowledge.
