open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Surviving motor units in neurogenic diseases demonstrate collateral reinnervation. Scanning electromyography (EMG) reveals normal motor unit corridor length, but with “silent regions,” suggesting that reinnervation does not result in increased motor unit size but may increase motor unit complexity.

Factors Affecting Immune Reconstitution Post‐Allogeneic HSCT in Children: The Case for an Individualized Approach to Vaccination

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is increasingly used to treat malignant and non‐malignant diseases.
