Transient weakness and compound muscle action potential decrement in myotonia congenita

, 1998
Twenty-five Turkish patients with recessive myotonia congenita (RMC), 16 of whom had genetic confirmation, were studied. Nineteen had transient weakness. In the upper extremities, onset age of transient weakness was usually in the early teens.

Statin-induced necrotizing autoimmune myopathy: an extremely rare adverse effect from statin use

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2019
Statins are widely prescribed medications to prevent cardiovascular events. While self-limited statin myopathy is relatively common, statin-induced necrotizing autoimmune myopathy (SINAM) is extremely uncommon, with incidence of two cases per million per
