Genetics of inclusion-body myositis

open access: yesMuscle and Nerve, 2007
AbstractSporadic inclusion‐body myositis (sIBM) is the most common acquired muscle disease in Caucasians over the age of 50 years. Pathologically it is marked by inflammatory, degenerative, and mitochondrial changes that interact in a yet‐unknown way to cause progressive muscle degeneration and weakness.

Inclusion body myositis in twins

open access: yesNeurology, 1998
Sporadic inclusion body myositis (s-IBM) is characterized by late onset of slowly progressive weakness that involves the quadriceps and volar forearm muscles early in the course of the disease. There are hereditary forms of inclusion body myopathy (h-IBM) that histologically resemble s-IBM.

Long-term observational study of sporadic inclusion body myositis

open access: yesBrain, 2011
We describe a long-term observational study of a large cohort of patients with sporadic inclusion body myositis and propose a sporadic inclusion body myositis weakness composite index that is easy to perform during a clinic.

Inclusion Body Myositis

Continuum, 2022
This article highlights the clinical and diagnostic features of inclusion body myositis (IBM) and provides recent insights into the pathomechanisms and therapeutic strategies of the disease.IBM is an often-misdiagnosed myopathy subtype. Due to the insidious onset and slow progression of muscle weakness, it can often be dismissed as a sign of aging as ...

Inclusion body myositis

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1989
Inclusion body myositis (IBM) was suspected on light microscopic grounds in 48 of 170 consecutive patients with inflammatory myopathies. One or more vacuoles containing membranous material, groups of atrophic fibres, and an autoaggressive endomysial inflammatory exudate occurred in 100, 96 and 92% of the muscle specimens.

Inclusion body myositis

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1999
Sporadic inclusion body myositis is a severely disabling muscle disease that mainly affects elderly individuals. The typical distribution of muscle weakness, poor response to immunosuppressive treatment, pathological accumulation of various proteins in vacuolated muscle fibres, inflammatory reaction and mitochondrial changes have all been subjects of ...

INCLUSION BODY MYOSITIS

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1994
IBM remains a poorly understood form of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, although great progress in the areas of clinical recognition and pathophysiology have been made recently. The question of whether therapy can favorably influence short- and/or long-term outcome is still unanswered.
