Verapamil mitigates chloride and calcium bi-channelopathy in a myotonic dystrophy mouse model

open access: yes
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) involves misregulated alternative splicing for specific genes. We used exon or nucleotide deletion to mimic altered splicing of genes central to muscle excitation-contraction coupling in mice.

Melanopsin‐Mediated Post‐Illumination Pupillary Response in Idiopathic Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep Behavior Disorder and Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To conduct a case–control study to investigate melanopsin‐mediated post‐illumination pupillary response (PIPR) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), video‐polysomnography‐confirmed isolated/idiopathic rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD), and age‐matched healthy controls (HC). Methods PIPR was measured at 6 s after

Genetic testing in paediatric neurological disorders

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
In this study 390 paediatric patients with neurological disorders underwent genetic testing via exome sequencing, commercial panel, in‐house epilepsy, and movement disorder gene panels. Exome sequencing provides the highest diagnostic yield, and severe developmental delay and hypotonia predicted pathogenic variants in the exome sequencing cohort ...

First Experience With Extravascular Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator Under Deep Sedation

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Extravascular Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator (EV‐ICD) utilizes a substernal lead to provide defibrillation and anti‐tachycardia pacing (ATP) while avoiding transvenous complications. General anesthesia (GA) was applied for implantation procedures in the EV‐ICD pivotal trial and is currently recommended by the ...
