Statins and Immune-Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy
Statins are a well-recognized cause of a variety of skeletal myopathic effects, which generally resolve when discontinuing the treatment. Among autoimmune manifestations associated with statins, there is immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM).The present article summarizes the main features of statin-related IMNM, describing diagnosis ...

Intestinal and Multivisceral Transplantation: Where We Stand Today
ABSTRACT Intestinal and multivisceral transplantation has evolved from an experimental to a life‐saving procedure for children and adults with complications of gut failure (GF). Suboptimal long‐term outcomes of transplant elicit recent advances in surgical and medical gut rehabilitation along with the introduction of glucagon‐like peptide‐2 (GLP‐2 ...

Drooling as a Red Flag: Insights From a Case Series in Severe Dermatomyositis With Literature Review
ABSTRACT Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare idiopathic inflammatory disease characterized by progressive proximal muscle weakness and distinctive dermatologic manifestations. Although dysphagia is a recognized complication of oropharyngeal muscle involvement, drooling (sialorrhea) is infrequently described and may be a marker of severe disease.

Targeted Therapy for Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy
ABSTRACT Background Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a heterogeneous group of autoimmune disorders characterized by chronic muscle inflammation and significant extramuscular involvement. A substantial proportion of patients exhibit refractory or relapsing disease despite conventional immunosuppressive therapies, necessitating the ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Anti‐3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl‐CoA reductase (HMGCR) autoantibodies (aAbs) are pathogenic in immune‐mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), partly through complement activation. C5 inhibition did not restore muscle strength in mice or patients with overt IMNM, suggesting additional pathogenic mechanisms.
