928-80 Can Electrocardiogram Help to Differentiate Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy from Other Muscular Dystrophies? [PDF]
, 1995 Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is a rare X-linked muscular disease with a potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmia.The purpose of this study was to determine if electrocardiogram (ECG) was useful to differentiate EDMD from other muscular ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study investigates the role of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) in the choroid plexus (ChP) following traumatic brain injury (TBI). ILC2 accumulation alleviates immune infiltration, preserves hippocampal integrity, and improves sensory‐motor and memory functions.

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2015 Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is characterized by a typical and asymmetric pattern of muscle involvement and disease progression. Two forms of FSHD, FSHD1 and FSHD2, have been identified displaying identical clinical phenotype but different genetic and epigenetic basis.

Common recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophies differential diagnosis: why and how?
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2014 Limb girdle muscular dystrophies are heterogeneous autosomal hereditary neuromuscular disorders. They produce dystrophic changes on muscle biopsy and they are associated with mutations in several genes involved in muscular structure and function ...

Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy
Neurotherapeutics, 2004 Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), a dominantly inherited disorder, is the third most common dystrophy after Duchenne and myotonic muscular dystrophy. No known effective treatments exist for FSHD. The lack of an understanding of the underlying pathophysiology remains an obstacle in the development of targeted therapeutic interventions.
