Hydroxamic Acids as HDAC Inhibitor Drug Leads for Malaria

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a global health threat, with an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 malaria‐associated deaths reported in 2024. Most mortality is due to infection by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, with the highest burden occurring in Sub‐Saharan Africa.

Walsh & Hoyt: Congenital Muscular Dystrophies

, 2005
A number of patients have dystrophic muscle pathology associated with symptoms that are present at birth and a variable clinical course. These patients are said to have congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD). CMD is by no means rare. Rospide et al. believed

Navigating the Complexity: A Comprehensive Review of GSK‐3 Inhibition in Regenerative Medicine

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycogen synthase kinase‐3 (GSK‐3) is a central regulator of numerous cellular signaling pathways, with critical roles in metabolism, proliferation, differentiation, and tissue regeneration. This review explores the multifaceted effects of pharmacological GSK‐3 inhibition across multiple body districts, focusing on its highly context‐dependent

Reachable Workspace as a Clinical Outcome for Upper Extremity Function: A Narrative Review

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Motion sensing technology can be utilized to capture detailed upper extremity (UE) motion to reconstruct an individual's three‐dimensional (3D) reachable workspace (RWS). The RWS can be quantified as relative surface area (RSA), providing an innovative surrogate measure to assess UE mobility and function.

Enabling Functional Independence: A Scoping Review of Upper Extremity Assistive Devices for Adults With Progressive Neuromuscular Diseases

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
This scoping review summarizes the spectrum of upper extremity assistive devices for adults with progressive neuromuscular diseases, ranging from low‐tech supports to advanced robotics, exoskeletons, and brain‐computer interface systems. While these technologies show promise for improving enabling function, current evidence is largely limited to ...

Hereditary muscular dystrophies and the heart

, 2010
Cardiac disease is a common clinical manifestation of neuromuscular disorders, particularly of muscular dystrophies. Heart muscle cells as well as specialized conducting myocardial fibres may be affected by the dystrophic process.

Respiratory Care Trajectory in Patients With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in the Advanced Stage: A Retrospective Single‐Center Study

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Data on respiratory status and care in older adults with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) remain limited. This study aimed to characterize respiratory status, respiratory physiotherapy, and associated clinical features in patients with DMD aged ≥ 30 years.

DNA diagnostic tests in Xp21 dystrophy families for prenatal diagnosis

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 1998
Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies are X-linked genetic disorders characterized by dystrophin gene defects. We have studied 250 families with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies (D/BMD) by molecular genetic methods since 1992.

Whole Body Phase Angle as a Promising Marker of Disease Severity in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims To investigate its potential role as a marker of disease severity in facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD), this study examined the association between whole‐body phase angle (PhA) and clinically assessed severity in FSHD patients.

Sociodemographic and Clinical Profile of Adult Males With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Due to improvements in clinical care, individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) are living into adulthood, but little has been published about adults with DMD. We describe key characteristics of adults with DMD using US population‐based surveillance data.
