A 73‐Year‐Old Man With Several Years of Difficulty Climbing Stairs and Frequent Tripping
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A 73‐year‐old man presented with progressive weakness and atrophy predominantly affecting the distal finger flexors and quadriceps muscles. Electrophysiological studies demonstrated mixed myogenic and neurogenic features. Muscle MRI showed inflammatory changes, and muscle biopsy revealed granulomatous myositis with histologic features ...

Complementarity of Long‐Reads and Optical Mapping in Parkinson's Disease for Structural Variants
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Long‐read sequencing and optical genome mapping technologies have the ability to detect large and complex structural variants. This has led to the discovery of novel pathogenic variants in neurodegenerative movement disorders. Thus, we aimed to systematically compare the SV detection capabilities of OGM and ONT in Parkinson's disease.
