Autism spectrum disorder in children with spinal muscular atrophy type 1: Case series

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was identified in 37.5% of children with SMA (n = 13). While IQ did not differ significantly between groups, adaptive functioning was reduced in those with co‐occurring ASD. Results support routine early neurodevelopmental screening in children with spinal muscular atrophy.

Effects of bed rest and immobilization on intramuscular and intermuscular adipose tissue: A systematic review

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle disuse caused by bed rest and immobilization is associated with muscle atrophy and insulin resistance, which might be related to increases in intramuscular fat (IntraMAT) and intermuscular fat (InterMAT) accumulation. In this systematic review, we compiled evidence on the effects of bed rest and unilateral lower‐limb immobilization on ...
