Fetal Akinesia/Hypokinesia and Arthrogryposis of Neuromuscular Origin: Etiologic Groups, Genetics, and Phenotypic Spectrum

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To provide a comprehensive clinical and genetic characterization of individuals with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC), focusing on the distribution of genetic etiologies across the neuromuscular spectrum and comparing myogenic and neurogenic subtypes. Methods A total of 105 individuals with AMC were clinically and genetically

Genetic Profile and Symptom Pattern Explain Variability of Deep Brain Stimulation Effect in Dystonia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bilateral globus pallidus pars interna deep brain stimulation (GPi‐DBS) is a recognized and effective treatment option for drug‐resistant dystonia patients. However, the clinical GPi‐DBS outcomes vary significantly. Herein, we explored the pre‐implant factors affecting GPi‐DBS effectiveness.

BCS1L‐Associated Disease: 5′‐UTR Variant Shifts the Phenotype Towards Axonal Neuropathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate the consequences of a pathogenic missense variant (c.838C>T; p.L280F) and a 5′‐UTR regulatory variant (c.‐122G>T) in BCS1L on disease pathogenesis and to understand how regulatory variants influence disease severity and clinical presentation.

Differences in pharyngeal swallow event timing: Healthy aging, Parkinson disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, 2023
Objective The pharyngeal phase of swallowing involves a coordinated sequence of events. Event durations may be prolonged in people with Parkinson disease (PwPD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PwALS); however, the cumulative effect of these changes ...

Ultrasoft Iontronics: Stretchable Diodes Enabled by Ionically Conductive Bottlebrush Elastomers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a solvent‐free, ultrasoft, and stretchable ionic diode based on oppositely charged bottlebrush elastomers (BBEs). The BBE diode exhibits an ultralow Young's modulus (<23 kPa), a high rectification ratio of 46, and stretchability over 400%.

Natural History of Swallow Function during the Three-Month Period after Stroke

Geriatrics, 2019
Oropharyngeal dysphagia is a prevalent complication following stroke (PS-OD), and one that is sometimes spontaneously recovered. This study describes the natural history of PS-OD between admission and three months post-stroke, and the factors associated ...

Mucosa‐Interfacing Capsule for In Situ Sensing the Elasticity of Biological Tissues

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A fundamental mechanism of palpating soft materials is reported to sense deep tissue elasticity in situ with minimal invasion using the interaction between the robot palpation unit and soft tissues. Both the robot locomotion and elasticity sensing functions are remotely controlled by external magnetic fields, while the sensing data are wirelessly ...

Outcomes of Swallowing Rehabilitation in Patients with Dysphagia: A Retrospective Study

Bengal Journal of Otolaryngology and Head Neck Surgery, 2020
Introduction Swallowing, as the first phase of digestion, is one of the most complicated neuromuscular processes of the central nervous system. The presence of dysphagia can itself cause medical, psychosocial, and economic complications.
