Clinical Variability and Genotype Driven Outcomes in an International Cohort of 14 Pediatric FIG4 Patients

BACKGROUND: Biallelic FIG4 variants classically cause distinct conditions characterized by peripheral neuropathy (Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4J) or skeletal dysplasia (Yunis-Varón syndrome). However, central nervous system involvement is increasingly recognized. The prevale...

Serum p-tau181 and p-tau217 levels in adolescents and adults with 5q spinal muscular atrophy

Abstract Background Reliable blood biomarkers for longitudinal monitoring in adolescent and adult 5q spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) are lacking. Phosphorylated tau (p-tau) species are elevated in serum in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), where they may reflect peripheral nerve...

Clinical Variability and Genotype‐Driven Outcomes in CHRND ‐Related Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome

BACKGROUND: Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) caused by pathogenic variants in CHRND, encoding the δ-subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR), are rare, and data on genotype-phenotype correlations and long-term outcomes are limited. METHODS: We performed a retro...
