ABSTRACT Background and Aims Biallelic pathogenic variants in PLEKHG5 are associated with two distinct recessive phenotypes, including distal hereditary motor neuropathy AR type 4 and intermediate Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease type C (CMT). No South American cases have been previously reported.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Differentiating hereditary axonal polyneuropathies caused by distinct gene variants remains a clinical challenge. This comparative case study of DNAJB2‐ and HINT1‐related neuropathies aimed to broaden the phenotypic spectrum associated with these genes and to explore non‐motor symptoms and quality of life (QoL) in affected ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims In individuals with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) polyneuropathy, monitoring of disease progression and treatment response is crucial. The objective is to determine if serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) and serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (sGFAP) are reliable biomarkers of ATTRv polyneuropathy ...

Ultrasound Guidance to Augment Needle Electromyography Precision in the Complex Nerve Injury Setting
ABSTRACT The rise in popularity of nerve transfer surgery in individuals with peripheral nerve and spinal cord injuries has elevated the importance of the preoperative electrodiagnostic examination. Needle electromyography (EMG) provides peripheral nerve surgeons with precise information about donor and recipient muscle health, aiding in decisions ...

The Diverse Neuromuscular Spectrum of VPS13A Disease
ABSTRACT Objective VPS13A disease (chorea‐acanthocytosis) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by biallelic variants in VPS13A, typically presenting with hyperkinetic movement disorders, while neuromuscular signs are often mild. The aim of the project was to investigate the frequency and severity of neuromuscular impairment in VPS13A disease ...

Unusual presentation of hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies
Background Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP) is an autosomal-dominant painless peripheral neuropathy characterized by episodes of repeated focal pressure neuropathies at sites of entrapment/compression, with a considerable ...

INF2‐Related Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease in a Japanese Cohort: Genetic and Clinical Insights
ABSTRACT Background INF2 mutations cause focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT). Accurate genetic diagnosis is critical, as INF2‐related FSGS is typically resistant to immunotherapy yet rarely recurs after transplantation, and its associated neuropathy can mimic treatable immune‐mediated disorders such as ...

ABSTRACT Background Mitofusin 2 (MFN2) is a major causative gene for axonal Charcot – Marie – Tooth disease type 2A (CMT2A), with a wide phenotypic spectrum. Comprehensive large ‐ scale genotype – phenotype association studies are essential for understanding disease pathogenesis and improved clinical management.

ABSTRACT Recent technological advancements may now allow shorter reliable magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) scans of the brachial plexus (BP) even at 1.5 T. The objective of this study was to compare ultra‐fast bilateral coronal 3D T2w TSE STIR (3D‐IR) with unilateral sagittal 2D T2w TSE Dixon (2D‐DX) in terms of image quality, diagnostic ...
