Time‐Efficient Interleaved Spin Density‐Weighted and Inversion Recovery 23Na MRI of the Human Calf Muscle at 7 T

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2675-2684, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Spin density‐weighted (SDW) and inversion recovery (IR) 23Na MRI provide different sodium contrasts with complementary information. Therefore, the aim was to develop a time‐efficient sequence scheme capable of providing both contrasts by acquiring SDW and IR 23Na MRI data within a single sequence without additional measurement time ...

Circulating small RNA signatures differentiate accurately the subtypes of muscular dystrophies: small-RNA next-generation sequencing analytics and functional insights

RNA Biology, 2022
Muscular dystrophies are a group of rare and severe inherited disorders mainly affecting the muscle tissue. Duchene Muscular Dystrophy, Myotonic Dystrophy types 1 and 2, Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy are some ...

Frequency and Circumstances of Falls Events in People Living With Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy: A Cross‐Sectional Survey

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is an adult‐onset X‐linked neuromuscular disorder associated with progressive weakness, sensory involvement and impaired mobility. Falls appear frequent in SBMA, but their real‐world frequency and circumstances have not been systematically described.

Thoracoscapular fusion for facioscapulohumeral dystrophy

, 1978
Eleven thoracoscapular fusion operations have been done on six patients. The indication is symptomatic winging of the scapula caused by thoracoscapular muscle paresis with intact function in the deltoid.

Diagnostic utility of inflammatory markers in formalin‐fixed and paraffin‐embedded muscle biopsies for idiopathic inflammatory myopathies

Histopathology, Volume 89, Issue 4, Page 699-709, October 2026.
Formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) muscle tissue supports robust immunohistochemical detection of MHC II, MxA, and p62 with performance comparable to frozen sections. This approach reliably identifies the pathological signatures of inclusion body myositis, dermatomyositis, immune‐mediated necrotizing myopathy, and overlap myositis, enhancing the ...

[Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy]. [PDF]

, 2010
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy is clinically mainly characterized by progressive weakness of the facial, shoulder and upper arm muscles. It is an autosomal dominant heriditary disease, caused by a contraction of a repetitive DNA element at the ...

Refining Shoulder Diagnostics: A Technical Note on Scapular Physical Examination

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Normal scapulothoracic function relies on a delicate balance among several periscapular muscles and is essential for shoulder motion. Disturbance in this balance can lead to abnormal motion, which can impair shoulder function, leading to pain and discomfort.
