Recurrent Orbital Myositis: A Case Report

open access: yes, 2007
Nonspesific orbital inflammatory syndromes (orbital pseudotumor) are a heterogeneous group of conditions. Orbital myositis is a subtype of this group involving one or more orbital muscles. It is quite rare in children. Corticosteroids are the mainstay of

In adult onset myositis, the presence of interstitial lung disease and myositis specific/associated antibodies are governed by HLA class II haplotype, rather than by myositis subtype.

open access: yes, 2005
The aim of this study was to investigate HLA class II associations in polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM), and to determine how these associations influence clinical and serological differences.

Patients on statins with elevated transaminases: Frequency of follow‐up creatine kinase testing and gastroenterology referral

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To quantify how often creatine kinase (CK) is measured after newly elevated aminotransferases in statin users, and whether absent CK data are associated with gastroenterology (GI) referrals. Methods Retrospective chart review of adult outpatients on statins with a first alanine/aspartate aminotransferase (ALT/AST) elevation during a 5 ...

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...

Nonbacterial Myositis

open access: yesCurrent Infectious Disease Reports, 2010
Infectious myositis is defined as an infection of a skeletal muscle. Infectious myositis is most commonly caused by bacteria; however, a variety of viral, parasitic, and fungal agents may also cause myositis. The pathogenesis of nonbacterial infectious myositis is via direct or hematogenous infection of the musculature or immune mechanisms.
