Integrating Chain‐of‐Thought and Retrieval Augmented Generation Enhances Rare Disease Diagnosis From Clinical Notes

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 167-183, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Several studies show that large language models (LLMs) struggle with phenotype‐driven gene prioritization for rare diseases. These studies typically use Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms to prompt foundation models such as GPT and LLaMA to predict candidate genes.

Nemaline Myopathy

open access: yes
Abstract This chapter presents a 58-year-old woman with progressive weakness, dysphagia, and dyspnea, ultimately diagnosed with sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy. She has a complex history that includes antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, pulmonary hypertension, monoclonal gammopathy, positive antinuclear antibody (ANA), and ...

Phenotypes of Myopathy-related Actin Mutants in differentiated C2C12 Myotubes

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2007
Background About 20 % of nemaline myopathies are thus far related to skeletal muscle alpha-actin. Seven actin mutants located in different parts of the actin molecule and linked to different forms of the disease were selected and expressed as EGFP-tagged

Nemaline myopathy: description of an adult onset case.

open access: yes, 2002
Nemaline myopathy is a rare congenital muscle disease, with neonatal or adult onset. We report clinical and ultrastructural study of a 73-year-old woman whose symptoms manifested at age 40 years with proximal muscle weakness, nocturnal cramps, muscle ...

What's new in neuromuscular disorders? The congenital myopathies

open access: yes, 2003
The congenital myopathies are a heterogeneous group of early-onset neuromuscular conditions with characteristic findings on muscle biopsy, comprising central core disease, minicore myopathy (multi-minicore disease), nemaline myopathy and myotubular ...

Magnetic resonance imaging of muscle in nemaline myopathy

open access: yes, 2004
We report muscle MRI findings of 10 patients from 8 families with nemaline myopathy. Patients with involvement of the nebulin (NEB) gene showed a consistent pattern of selective muscle involvement corresponding to clinical severity. In mild cases.

New mutations found by Next-Generation Sequencing screening of Spanish patients with Nemaline Myopathy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Nemaline Myopathy (NM) is a rare genetic disorder that encompasses a large spectrum of myopathies characterized by hypotonia and generalized muscle weakness. To date, mutations in thirteen different genes have been associated with NM. The most frequently

Modelling myopathies in zebrafish

open access: yes, 2016
Muscle diseases, or myopathies, are a group of rare congenital diseases that severely incapacitate the patients and in some cases are fatal. Most of these diseases result from mutations in genes that code for proteins of the sarcomere, the contractile ...

Nemaline myopathy type 6: clinical and myopathological features [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Nemaline myopathy (NEM) is one of the most common congenital myopathies. A unique subtype, NEM6, maps to chromosome 15q21-q23 in two pedigrees, but the causative gene has not been determined.
