Electrical Impedance Myography Detects Disease Progression over 12 to 24 Months in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 1545-1554, June 2026.
Objective Targeted therapies for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are progressing through clinical trials. Electrical impedance myography (EIM) provides a noninvasive biomarker of muscle composition that may be valuable especially in early phase trials. This study evaluated EIM data from a multicenter FSHD cohort over 24 months.

Balance and walking in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy: multiperspective assessment

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: In the Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), the association of ankle muscle impairment with knee, hip and abdominal weakness causes complex alterations of static (postural) and dynamic (walking) balance, increasing the risk of ...

Combined Lumbar-Sacral Plexus Block in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy for Hip Fracture Surgery: A Case Report

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Anaesthesiology and Reanimation
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a muscular dystrophy that can affect individuals of all age groups. Its prevalence is reported to be 0.4-1 in 10,000 people. Because of the low occurrence of FSHD, anaesthetic management is primarily based

Elderly Onset of Weakness in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesCase Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2012
A 77-year-old male is presented. He had onset of proximal weakness 10 years earlier. His course was slowly progressive. Despite having phenotypic features of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSH), genetic testing for this was delayed because of ...
