Orthostatic Myoclonus—Clinical and Electrophysiological Features in a Large Retrospective Cohort
Abstract Background Orthostatic myoclonus is characterized by irregular, lower limb myoclonic bursts during stance and is a major cause of postural instability and falls. However, studies are limited, and little is known about its pathophysiology. Objectives We sought to define the clinical and electrophysiological features of orthostatic myoclonus in ...

Ultrasound-derived Biceps Femoris Long-Head Fascicle Length: Extrapolation Pitfalls [PDF]
To compare biceps femoris long-head (BFlh) fascicle lengths (Lfs) obtained with different ultrasound-based approaches: 1) single ultrasound images and linear Lf extrapolation; 2) single ultrasound images and one of two different trigonometric equations ...

TMSC‐SCs were mixed with fibrin adhesive and administered into the sciatic nerve of CCI rats, and nerve conduction studies and histopathological observations confirmed the regeneration of the peripheral nerve and gastrocnemius muscle. In addition, the expression of M1 and M2 macrophage markers was observed after the administration of TMSC‐SCs. ABSTRACT

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.
