Botulinum toxin type A for the treatment of limb myokymia: Experiences of three children
Sedat IşıkayAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2022 25(5):928-930 Myokymia is a rare neuromuscular disorder and limb involvement is not common in this disease. To the best of our knowledge, isolated peroneus longus muscle myokymia was not reported before in the literature; and for that reason treatment protocols were not established. Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A), which is used in the treatment of a variety of neurologic disorders, was also defined as a treatment option in myokymia. Herein, we will report three cases of peroneus longus muscle myokymia in children in the absence of any other ne...

Spectrum of cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction and 24-hour blood pressure variability in idiopathic Parkinson & #39;s disease
Conclusions: Timely detection of AD may be helpful not only in recognizing IPD in its pre-motor stages but also in optimizing management for this population of patients. BP variability and abnormal dipping patterns on ABPM can be a potential marker of dysautonomia. (Source: Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology)

18F-FDG PET/CT and 99mTc-TRODAT scan findings in the variants of progressive supranuclear palsy and correlation with clinical findings
Conclusion: The characteristic patterns of hypometabolism observed in the different subgroups were more apparent on quantification and based on visual analysis alone, it may not be possible to differentiate the different subtypes of PSP. A good correlation was seen between some of the core clinical features and hypometabolic clusters. (Source: Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology)
