Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy, but their efficacy continues to be limited by immune‐related adverse events. Among these, ICI‐induced cardiac arrhythmias are increasingly recognised as a major adverse reaction, encompassing a broad spectrum of clinical phenotypes, including conduction blocks, atrial fibrillation and

Delayed Diagnosis of Atypical Presentation of Myasthenia Gravis
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disorder affecting the neuromuscular junction, resulting in muscle fatiguability and weakness. The pathological characteristics of the disorder include ocular weakness resulting in diplopia and/or ptosis.

ABSTRACT Thymoma‐associated myasthenia gravis (TAMG) is frequently refractory, particularly when complicated by myasthenic crisis in advanced invasive disease. Complement C5 inhibitors and neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) inhibitors have expanded the treatment of acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibody‐positive generalized myasthenia gravis; however, their ...

Defining Features of Gabriele‐de Vries Syndrome in Adults: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Gabriele‐de Vries syndrome (GADEVS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the YY1 gene. Like most rare genetic syndromes, the adult manifestations of GADEVS remain poorly defined. Here, we describe the oldest patient reported to date with GADEVS—a 63‐year‐old woman with a c.1177_1179del YY1 variant ...

Medical and surgical treatment for ocular myasthenia
Background Approximately 50% of people with myasthenia gravis present initially with purely ocular symptoms, so called ocular myasthenia and between 50 to 60% of these people will progress to develop generalized disease.

ABSTRACT Thymoma is the most common tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Approximately 20%–30% of patients with a thymoma develop myasthenia gravis (MG), and an additional one third may possess positive acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies without MG.

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) is a validated technique for assessing muscle pathology, yet its role in disorders primarily affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) remains unclear. This pilot study aimed to explore whether QMUS is associated with structural muscle changes in patients with acquired or genetic NMJ ...

INtraVESical immunoTherapy (INVEST) prior to radical cystectomy for bladder cancer: trial protocol
Background High‐risk non‐muscle‐invasive bladder cancer (HRNMIBC) has a variable prognosis, managed predominantly by local surgical resection and intravesical Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG), or radical cystectomy (RC). Current treatments are poorly tolerated, have supply limitations and often fail to control the disease.
