Acute Clinical Effects of Dual-Task Resistance Exercise on Muscle Endurance and Pressure Sensitivity in Patients With Carpal Tunnel Syndrome After Surgery. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the acute effect of a self‐regulated dual‐task during resistance exercise on muscular endurance, pain intensity and pressure pain threshold (PPT) in patients undergoing carpal tunnel release (CTR). Methods Participants were randomly assigned to resistance exercise combined with a self‐regulated cognitive task (dual‐task ...

Case report: Mexiletine suppresses ventricular arrhythmias in Andersen-Tawil syndrome
It is arduous to determine clinical solutions for Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) in patients intolerant of β-blocker. Here, we present the case of a 7-year-old boy with periodic paralysis and dysmorphic features who experienced syncope four times during ...

Andersen-Tawil syndrome: Overlapping clinical features with Noonan syndrome?
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) and Noonan syndrome (NS) are both autosomal dominantly inherited disorders that share anomalies in the same body systems, i.e. cardiovascular system, skeleton, growth, and face morphology. Here we report a patient meeting clinical diagnostic criteria for NS in whom no variant in one of the genes known to cause NS was found

Characterization of a novel, dominant negative KCNJ2 mutation associated with Andersen-Tawil syndrome [PDF]
Andersen-Tawil syndrome is characterized by periodic paralysis, ventricular ectopy and dysmorphic features. Approximately 60% of patients exhibit loss-of-function mutations in KCNJ2, which encodes the inwardly rectifying K(+) channel pore forming subunit
