AGRN‐, LRP4‐, MUSK‐Related CMS: Clinical, Neurophysiological, Morphological, Genetic and Pathological Mechanisms

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are inherited disorders caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins essential for neuromuscular junction (NMJ) function. Pathogenic variants have been identified in more than 35 genes, underscoring the complexity of synaptic biology and the wide range of mechanisms that can compromise neuromuscular ...

Treatment Preferences of Patients With Myasthenia Gravis: A Qualitative Study

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The burden of myasthenia gravis (MG) is often underestimated, and studies usually focus on the symptom burden. However, treatment‐related adverse events also contribute to patients' burdens and affect their treatment decisions.

The Anterior Belly of the Digastric Muscle as a Novel Target for Needle Electromyography in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Needle electromyography (EMG) in the bulbar region aids in the diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) but remains technically challenging. The genioglossus muscle (GM) is commonly examined; however, pain and poor relaxation may limit its evaluation.

Exploring the Value of Quantitative Muscle Ultrasound in Neuromuscular Junction Disorders: A Pilot Study

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) is a validated technique for assessing muscle pathology, yet its role in disorders primarily affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) remains unclear. This pilot study aimed to explore whether QMUS is associated with structural muscle changes in patients with acquired or genetic NMJ ...
