This review focuses on the clinical features, molecular mechanisms, treatment methods, and preventive measures of the VZV, with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for the development of new treatment and prevention methods for HZ. ABSTRACT Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a ubiquitous human herpesvirus that establishes lifelong latency and causes ...

Schematic representation of the gut‐brain axis and microbial triggers in Guillain–Barré Syndrome. Post‐infectious immune responses, particularly through molecular mimicry by pathogens, such as Campylobacter jejuni and Haemophilus influenzae, lead to demyelination and subsequent neuromuscular paralysis.

Abstract Introduction/Aims Previous studies have suggested that treatments targeting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) may play a role in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, factors impacting repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS), a technique to evaluate NMJ function, have yet to be fully elucidated.

Guillain‐Barré syndrome: a comprehensive review
Abstract Guillain‐Barré syndrome (GBS) is a potentially devastating yet treatable disorder. A classically postinfectious, immune‐mediated, monophasic polyradiculoneuropathy, it is the leading global cause of acquired neuromuscular paralysis. In most cases, the immunopathological process driving nerve injury is ill‐defined.

Abstract Coxsackievirus B1 (CVB1), an enterovirus with multiple clinical presentations, has been associated with potential long‐term consequences, including hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), in some patients. However, the related animal models, transmission dynamics, and long‐term tissue tropism of CVB1 have not been systematically characterized ...

Peripheral nervous system and neuromuscular disorders in the emergency department: A review
Abstract Introduction Acute presentations and emergencies in neuromuscular disorders (NMDs) often challenge clinical acumen. The objective of this review is to refine the reader's approach to history taking, clinical localization and early diagnosis, as well as emergency management of neuromuscular emergencies.

Practical approach to the child presenting with acute generalised weakness
Acute generalised muscle weakness in children is a paediatric emergency with a broad differential diagnosis. A careful history and neurologic examination guides timely investigation and management. We review some of the more common causes of acute generalised muscle weakness in children, highlighting key history and examination findings, along with an ...

To enhance the understanding of subtype‐specific features and pathophysiological aspects of hereditary neuropathies due to mutations in the myelin protein zero (MPZ), we performed neuropathological analyses of archival nerve and muscle biopsies as well as autopsy material and present them along with clinical and genetic data.
