Clinical Outcome Assessments for Functional Performance in Spastic Paresis: Systematic Review, Critique, and Recommendations

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spastic paresis, resulting from central nervous system lesions, significantly impairs functional performance. In the framework of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health, functional performance was defined as functioning at the activity level in relation to the impairment of body functions and ...

Emerging Upper Extremity Muscle Ultrasound Patterns as a Diagnostic Aid in TTN‐Related Myopathies

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Biallelic pathogenic variants in TTN cause rare forms of early‐onset myopathy, manifesting with variable severity, distribution, and progression of muscle weakness, often associated with respiratory insufficiency and potentially cardiomyopathy. The large size of TTN and phenotypic heterogeneity in TTN‐related myopathy (TTN‐RM)

Shear Wave Elastography to Assess Respiratory Muscle Function in Congenital Myopathies

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Respiratory muscle dysfunction is prevalent in congenital myopathies and often leads to respiratory failure. Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) measures tissue elasticity and has been proposed as an alternative to invasive measures of respiratory muscle contractility.

Congenital Myopathies and Muscular Dystrophies: A Single Tertiary Center Experience and Factors Associated With Long‐Term Outcomes

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Data on respiratory, feeding, ambulatory outcomes and prognostic factors for congenital myopathies (CM) and congenital muscular dystrophies (CMD) remain limited. Therefore, in this study, we report the characteristics of a large single‐center cohort of patients with CM and CMD, focusing on long‐term outcomes and aiming to ...

Muscle Ultrasound in Inclusion Body Myositis: Integrating Qualitative and Quantitative Approaches With Clinical and MRI Findings

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Inclusion body myositis (IBM) is an inflammatory myopathy with an insidious onset, often making diagnosis challenging. Although neuroimaging has recently been included in diagnostic criteria, the role of muscle ultrasound—despite being a rapid and cost‐effective tool—in IBM has been less extensively characterized.

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 ...

A case of yogurt central line‐associated bloodstream infection in a child with intestinal failure

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Central line‐associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) are a significant cause of morbidity in children with intestinal failure (IF). Probiotic therapy is discouraged in patients with IF because of the increased risk of bacteremia with the probiotic organism.
