Emerging Upper Extremity Muscle Ultrasound Patterns as a Diagnostic Aid in TTN‐Related Myopathies

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 111-120, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Biallelic pathogenic variants in TTN cause rare forms of early‐onset myopathy, manifesting with variable severity, distribution, and progression of muscle weakness, often associated with respiratory insufficiency and potentially cardiomyopathy. The large size of TTN and phenotypic heterogeneity in TTN‐related myopathy (TTN‐RM)

Shear Wave Elastography to Assess Respiratory Muscle Function in Congenital Myopathies

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 103-110, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Respiratory muscle dysfunction is prevalent in congenital myopathies and often leads to respiratory failure. Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) measures tissue elasticity and has been proposed as an alternative to invasive measures of respiratory muscle contractility.

Acute Effect of Percussive Massage on Cross‐Section Area, Muscle Strength, and Late Muscle Pain of the Quadriceps Muscle Following a Fatigue Protocol in Physically Active Men: Randomized Clinical Trial

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose The massage gun is widely used to alleviate delayed‐onset muscle soreness (DOMS); however, empirical evidence regarding its physiological effects remains limited. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the acute effects of percussive massage on the quadriceps muscle's cross‐sectional area (CSA), strength performance ...

Myosin Post‐Translational Modifications Associated With Critical Illness Myopathy

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Critical illness myopathy is a common and devastating consequence of critical care, causing dramatic loss of muscle mass and function in intensive care unit patients. Functional deficits often exceed the loss in muscle mass and myosin content.

The Molecular Diagnosis of Myopathies: Integrating Genomic, Proteomic, and Pathological Insights Toward Precision Medicine

Clinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 15-28, July 2026.
Advances in genomic, proteomic, and transcriptomic technologies are transforming the diagnosis of genetic myopathies. When integrated with traditional muscle pathology, multi‐omics approaches improve diagnostic yield, clarify disease mechanisms, and support more precise, mechanism‐based therapeutic strategies for patients with neuromuscular disorders ...

Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 54-67, July 2026.
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...
