Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Comorbid Neuromuscular Disorders
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) is an effective surgical treatment for many patients with moderate‐to‐severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who are unable to tolerate continuous positive airway pressure. Patients with neuromuscular disorders (NMD) are particularly vulnerable to more complex sleep‐related breathing disorders due to respiratory ...

Yang-Mills vacuum structure and quantum gravity [PDF]
Mod.Phys.Lett.A11:1807-1814,1996, 1996 Using renormalization group methods we calculate the derivative expansion of the effective Lagrangian for a covariantly constant gauge field in curved spacetime. Curvature affects the vacuum, in particular it could induce phase transitions between different vacua.

Myasthenia gravis patients with anti-MuSK antibodies [Miastenija gravis kod bolesnika s pozitivnim protutijelima na MuSK] [PDF]
, 2009 In myasthenia gravis (MG) patients without detectable anti-acetylcholine receptor (anti-AChR) antibody, referred to as seronegative myasthenia gravis patients, there is a variable proportion of patients with antibodies against the muscle specific kinase (

Myasthenia Gravis Related to Thymic Carcinoma: A Case Study
The Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2020 Myasthenia gravis and thymoma are often presented in association with ∼10% of myasthenic cases having concomitant thymoma. Thymic carcinoma is one of the rarest/aggressive human epithelial tumors and has no correlation with myasthenia gravis hitherto ...

A case of myasthenia gravis following alopecia areata
Journal of Cutaneous Immunology and Allergy, 2023 We present a case of myasthenia gravis that occurred after alopecia areata and evaluate the literature on the comorbidity of alopecia and myasthenia gravis. A 41‐year‐old male noticed hair loss on his scalp 4 months ago, and his hair loss progressed with

Identifying the Diagnostic Challenges and Indicators of Orthostatic Tremor: Patient Perspectives
Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background The diagnosis of orthostatic tremor (OT) is challenging because of its non‐specific symptoms and a broad range of differential diagnosis, resulting in a complex and lengthy diagnostic journey. Objective The aim was to assess the diagnostic delay in OT and to identify key clinical indicators as reported by patients.

From thermodynamics to the solutions in gravity theory [PDF]
, 2014 In a recent work, we present a new point of view to the relation of gravity and thermodynamics, in which we derive the \sch~solution through thermodynamic laws by the aid of the Misner-Sharp mass in an adiabatic system. In this paper we continue to investigate the relation between gravity and thermodynamics for obtaining solutions via thermodynamics ...
