Clinical Variability and Genotype‐Driven Outcomes in CHRND‐Related Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 9, September 2026.
Clinical variability in CHRND‐related congenital myasthenic syndrome ranges from isolated ocular involvement to severe neonatal‐onset disease with respiratory insufficiency. In a multicenter cohort of nine patients, ocular symptoms represented the core phenotype, while disease severity was influenced by genotype and presumed residual acetylcholine ...

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4126-4139, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Hyper‐buoyancy flotation increases cervical disc height and reduces vertebral stiffness, with only partial reversal after acute 1 g axial loading

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4166-4178, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Exposure to microgravity is associated with stature increases, moderate‐to‐severe back/neck pain and elevated lumbar and cervical intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation risk post‐flight. Whilst lumbar pathophysiology has been investigated, little attention has been placed on the cervical spine.
