A Hybrid Rule‐Based and Large Language Model Artificial Intelligence Systems for Electrodiagnostic Reporting: Two‐Center Retrospective Evaluation

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Electrodiagnostic (EDX) studies comprise nerve conduction studies (NCS) and needle electromyography (EMG). However, EDX reporting is heterogeneous across laboratories and often requires time‐consuming documentation. We aimed to evaluate a hybrid rule‐based and constrained large language model (LLM) system that drafts EDX ...

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
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 ...

Solution structure of the inner DysF domain of myoferlin and implications for limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2b [PDF]

, 2008
Mutations in the protein dysferlin, a member of the ferlin family, lead to limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B and Myoshi myopathy. The ferlins are large proteins characterised by multiple C2 domains and a single C-terminal membrane-spanning helix ...

Clinical, pathological and genetic characteristics of GNE myopathy: a single-center observational study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Introduction GNE myopathy is a rare autosomal recessive hereditary myopathy resulting in impaired sialic acid biosynthesis. The features of this condition include distal muscle weakness with relatively preserved quadriceps femoris strength and the ...

Review of nutrition management of pediatric intestinal pseudo‐obstruction

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic intestinal pseudo‐obstruction (CIPO) is a rare, heterogeneous, and debilitating disorder characterized by profound intestinal dysmotility and severe nutrition challenges. Its presentation resembles that of mechanical bowel obstruction, but CIPO occurs in the absence of luminal obstruction.

Dominantly inherited myosin IIa myopathy caused by aberrant splicing of MYH2

BMC Neurology, 2022
Background Myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms define the three major muscle fiber types in human extremity muscles. Slow beta/cardiac MyHC (MYH7) is expressed in type 1 muscle fibers.

Optical mapping reveals a higher level of large‐scale structural variants in a family with paternally transmitted myotonic dystrophy and independent Parkinson's disease

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a clinically challenging multisystem neuromuscular hereditary disorder, with generational increase in severity and earlier age at onset. It is caused by an unstable cytosine‐thymine‐guanine repeat expansion at the DMPK locus, accompanied by associated genetic and epigenetic modifications.
