BACKGROUND: Treating congenital blepharoptosis is often mandatory to clear the visual access and avoid amblyopia; however, when the levator function is poor, achieving a satisfactory long-term outcome is challenging.

PDK4 and nutrient responses explain muscle specific manifestation in mitochondrial disease
Mitochondrial disease triggers opposite responses in different muscles. Mitochondrial integrated stress response (ISRmt) and aerobic glycolysis characterize large muscles. Eye muscles show no ISRmt but activate PDK4—inhibitor of glucose oxidation—thereby upregulating beta‐oxidation, which is non‐optimal in mitochondrial disease and can explain eye ...

Targeted next-generation sequencing of dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma in the skull base reveals combined TP53 and PTEN mutations with increased proliferation index, an implication for pathogenesis [PDF]
Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma (DDCS) is a rare disease with a dismal prognosis. DDCS consists of two morphologically distinct components: the cartilaginous and noncartilaginous components.

OXA1L gene bi‐allelic variants cause mitochondrial myopathy. OXA1L deficiency results in combined mitochondrial respiratory chain defects and OXPHOS impairments. OXA1L deficiency leads to elevated ROS production, which may activate the NF‐κB signalling pathway, disturbing myogenic gene expression and triggering cell apoptosis. Abstract Background OXA1L

Lemierre Syndrome with Blepharoptosis
A 51-year-old woman was hospitalized with a high fever, occipital pain, blepharoptosis, and trismus. Enhanced CT showed thrombophlebitis of her left cavernous sinus, maxillary vein, and multiple pulmonary nodular lesions. (18)F-FDG PET/CT showed significant uptakes in the same lesions. Streptococcus constellatus was detected in her blood.
