Adult Survival in SMA Type 1: A 23‐Year Journey With Home Ventilation and Multidisciplinary Support
Diffuse brain atrophy and calvarial hyperostosis in a long‐term survivor of very early onset SMA type 1. ABSTRACT Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) type 1 is a severe autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by loss‐of‐function variants in the SMN1 gene, typically leading to death within the first two years without intervention. Long‐term survival

ABSTRACT Background Several studies show that large language models (LLMs) struggle with phenotype‐driven gene prioritization for rare diseases. These studies typically use Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms to prompt foundation models such as GPT and LLaMA to predict candidate genes.

Dystonia Scales for Children: Challenges and Obstacles in DBS Practice
Abstract Background Dystonia in pediatric patients often coexists with other movement disorders and neurodevelopmental issues. Current rating scales for evaluating pediatric deep brain stimulation (DBS) candidates are not universally applicable and often require a non‐validated combination of the existing scales.

Leiomodin-3-deficient mice display nemaline myopathy with fast-myofiber atrophy
Nemaline myopathy (NM) is one of the most common forms of congenital myopathy, and affects either fast myofibers, slow myofibers, or both. However, an animal model for congenital myopathy with fast-myofiber-specific atrophy is not available. Furthermore,

ABSTRACT Background Monoclonal gammopathy‐associated myopathies (MGAMs) include light chain (AL) amyloid myopathy, sporadic late‐onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM), and vacuolar myopathy with monoclonal gammopathy and stiffness (VAMMGAS). These subtypes usually occur separately, although rare overlap has been described. We report a patient with monoclonal

Incidence and Prevalence of Congenital Myopathies ‐ A Population‐Based Study From Western Sweden
Objective Congenital myopathies are a group of rare genetic muscle disorders. Previous studies have estimated point prevalences which only include surviving individuals. Our aim was to perform an epidemiological study with strict inclusion criteria, using modern diagnostic technology to present both incidences and prevalences, and to describe the ...
