Skeletal Muscle Channelopathies [PDF]
Skeletal muscle channelopathies are rare genetic neuromuscular conditions that include the nondystrophic myotonias and periodic paralyses. They cause disabling muscle symptoms and can limit educational potential, work opportunities, socialization, and quality of life. Effective therapy is available, making it essential to recognize and treat this group

Editorial: Skeletal Muscle Immunometabolism [PDF]
Skeletal muscle inflammation is triggered by multiple physiological and pathological processes. Resident immune cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells respond to the inflammatory state of skeletal muscle, and circulating immune cells can be recruited to muscle tissue (Pillon et al., 2013).

Skeletal muscle ultrasound [PDF]
Muscle ultrasound is a convenient technique to visualize normal and pathological muscle tissue as it is non-invasive and real-time. Neuromuscular disorders give rise to structural muscle changes that can be visualized with ultrasound: atrophy can be objectified by measuring muscle thickness, while infiltration of fat and fibrous tissue increases muscle
