ABSTRACT Objective Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) significantly impacts motor function. This study aimed to assess the persistent burden and unmet needs among currently treated patients with SMA and their caregivers. Methods Two complementary web‐based surveys were distributed in August 2024 among patients with SMA and their caregivers.

Discovery and Treatment of Action Potential‐Independent Myotonia in Hyperkalemic Periodic Paralysis
ABSTRACT Objective Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (hyperKPP) is characterized by attacks of transient weakness. A subset of hyperKPP patients suffers from transient involuntary contraction of muscle (myotonia). The goal of this study was to determine mechanisms causing myotonia in hyperKPP.

Filamented Light (FLight) Bioprinting of Mini‐Muscles with Self‐Renewal Potential
This work presents the FLight biofabrication for engineering in vitro muscle constructs by photocrosslinking pristine collagen and fibrinogen using ruthenium. The resulting mini‐muscles retain in vivo‐like tissue organization and a Pax7⁺ cell pool.
