ABSTRACT Substantial data supports the use of rapid exome and genome sequencing (rES/rGS) in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU), but fewer studies have examined the impact of rES/rGS in other pediatric critical care units. We evaluated the impact on diagnostic yield and time to diagnosis following a single‐center hospital policy change allowing ...

Multisystem Features in Adult-Onset Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1: An Integrative Case Analysis [PDF]
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), or Steinert disease, is the most common adult-onset muscu-lar dystrophy, characterized by multisystem involvement affecting neuromuscular, cardiac, endocrine, respiratory, and cognitive domains.

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Cushing’s Myopathy in Dogs: Prevalence, Clinical Abnormalities, and Response to Treatment
A distinct myotonia is a muscle disorder that may occur secondary to excess corticosteroids (hyperadrenocorticism, HAC, or Cushing’s disease) and is associated with electrodiagnostic abnormalities on electromyography (EMG).

Super‐response to Guselkumab. ABSTRACT Background Guselkumab, a selective interleukin (IL)‐23 inhibitor, is approved for the treatment of moderate‐to‐severe plaque psoriasis. While randomized clinical trials have introduced the concept of “super‐responders” (SRe)—patients achieving complete skin clearance (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index [PASI] 100 ...

The nondystrophic myotonias are a heterogeneous set of rare diseases that demonstrate clinical myotonia, electrical myotonia, or both. These disorders are distinguished from myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM-1), the more recently described proximal myotonic myopathy/myotonic dystrophy type 2 (PROMM/DM-2), and proximal myotonic dystrophy (a variant of DM-2)

In vivo assessment of muscle membrane properties in myotonic dystrophy [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Myotonia in myotonic dystrophy types 1 (DM1) and 2 (DM2) is generally attributed to reduced chloride channel conductance. We used muscle velocity recovery cycles (MVRCs) to investigate muscle membrane properties in DM1 and DM2, with ...

The myotonias are a group of uncommon disorders. All display a characteristic electromyographic picture and some of the disorders have systemic manifestations. They are important to the anaesthetist for several reasons. Anaesthetic and surgical interventions may induce myotonia which, when initiated, may complicate the course of anaesthesia and be ...
