Optimization of the Cell‐Based Assay Methodology to Study Degradation of Acetylcholine Receptors (Antigenic Modulation) by Antibodies From Myasthenia Gravis Patients

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Degradation of cell‐surface acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) by antigenic modulation is a key pathogenic mechanism of myasthenia gravis (MG) autoantibodies, yet standard assays primarily detect antibody binding rather than functional effects.

Urinary Dysfunction in Myasthenic Syndromes: A Scoping Review of Clinical Features and Treatment‐Related Associations

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urinary dysfunction has been reported in association with myasthenic syndromes, including myasthenia gravis (MG), Lambert–Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS), and congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS), but evidence regarding its prevalence, clinical impact, pathophysiology, and management remains limited.

Enabling Functional Independence: A Scoping Review of Upper Extremity Assistive Devices for Adults With Progressive Neuromuscular Diseases

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
This scoping review summarizes the spectrum of upper extremity assistive devices for adults with progressive neuromuscular diseases, ranging from low‐tech supports to advanced robotics, exoskeletons, and brain‐computer interface systems. While these technologies show promise for improving enabling function, current evidence is largely limited to ...

Imaging of Facial Muscles in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy: An Exploratory Study Comparing Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasound

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a genetic progressive muscle disorder often presenting with facial weakness. However, imaging studies specifically evaluating facial muscle involvement and its relationship with clinical severity remain limited. This preliminary study explored magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound

Diagnostic Performance of the Strength‐Duration Test for Bedside Screening of Critical Illness Polyneuropathy and/or Myopathy: A Prospective, Cross‐Sectional Study

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Critical illness polyneuropathy and/or myopathy (CIP/CIM) is a major cause of weakness in the intensive care unit (ICU). The availability of conventional electrodiagnostic testing may be limited. Alternative electrophysiologic methods, including the strength‐duration test (SDT) and the stimulus electrodiagnosis test (SET ...

Urinary Incontinence and Risk of All‐Cause Mortality: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Observational Studies

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Urinary incontinence (UI) is a prevalent condition among adults and imposes a substantial societal burden, yet its association with all‐cause mortality remains uncertain. This study systematically reviewed and quantified the association between UI and mortality risk.
