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 ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) is a validated technique for assessing muscle pathology, yet its role in disorders primarily affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) remains unclear. This pilot study aimed to explore whether QMUS is associated with structural muscle changes in patients with acquired or genetic NMJ ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Critical illness polyneuropathy and/or myopathy (CIP/CIM) is a major cause of weakness in the intensive care unit (ICU). The availability of conventional electrodiagnostic testing may be limited. Alternative electrophysiologic methods, including the strength‐duration test (SDT) and the stimulus electrodiagnosis test (SET ...

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