Mismatch Between the Distribution of Neuromuscular Specialists and Myasthenia Gravis Patients in the US Medicare Fee‐for‐Service Population

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims There is a mismatch between clinical need and access to neurologists across the US. Myasthenia gravis (MG) incidence and prevalence are increasing, particularly in US patients older than 65 years, raising concern for access to neuromuscular specialists that represent only 4% of neurologists.

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

open access: yesMuscle &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 ...

Imaging of Facial Muscles in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy: An Exploratory Study Comparing Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasound

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a genetic progressive muscle disorder often presenting with facial weakness. However, imaging studies specifically evaluating facial muscle involvement and its relationship with clinical severity remain limited. This preliminary study explored magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies

open access: yesNeurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...

Prime editing in neuropsychiatric disorders: From mutation‐specific target selection to clinical translation

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Prime editing, a novel clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‐based technology, fuses a reverse transcriptase (RT) to an engineered CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9) and uses a prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA)‐encoded template.
