Early detection of myocardial involvement by T1 mapping of cardiac MRI in idiopathic inflammatory myopathy
ConclusionT1 mapping of cardiac MRI is valuable to detect subclinical myocardial involvement in PM/DM patients, and both myocardial native T1 and ECV could serve as early imaging markers for myocardial impairment in PM/DM.Level of Evidence: 2Technical Efficacy: Stage 3J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2018.

Non-invasive differentiation of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with cardiac involvement from acute viral myocarditis using cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging T1 and T2 mapping
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) is a group of autoimmune diseases with systemic myositis which may involve the myocardium. Cardiac involvement in IIM, although often subclinical, may mimic clinical mani...

What Is in the Myopathy Literature?
We review the development of exon 51 skipping therapy with eteplirsen for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, including the recent report of long-term, sustained dystrophin production. Studies of the late-life health profile of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, early detection of left ventricular systolic dysfunction, and caregiver burden are also covered. A study of skeletal muscle magnetic resonance imaging in dysferlinopathies provides an extensive, detailed map of the involved muscles and consistency across phenotypes. Regarding the category of autoimmune myopathies, we discuss an article on the clinical and laborato...

Acute flaccid quadriplegic myopathy and encephalopathy with extensive muscle magnetic resonance imaging changes in thyroid storm
Boby Varkey Maramattom, Nibu Dominic, Surya JosephAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2020 23(3):342-344
Thyroid storm (TS) is a rare hyperthyroidism associated multisystem decompensation and can mimic a systemic inflammatory response syndrome. It is diagnosed in the presence of fever with cardiovascular, central nervous system, and gastrointestinal complications. Only a few reports of acute flaccid quadriplegic thyrotoxic myopathy (TM) with TS have been reported. However, muscle magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in TM have not been yet been reported. Our patient underwent muscle MRI and showed some unusual feat...

Children’s Multisystem inflammatory syndrome with myopathy
This report describes a case of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in a child that evolved with a pattern of toxic shock syndrome with coronary artery ectasia and neurological involvement, documented by magnetic resonance imaging, with changes in the corpus callosum and myopathy in the pelvic girdle and paravertebral musculature.

A Case of Inflammatory Myopathy in Graft vs Host Disease - A Potential Role for Ibrutinib
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies are a group of systemic autoimmune conditions with dominant manifestations on skeletal muscle and include the subgroups dermatomyositis, polymyositis, inclusion body myositis and necrotising myopathy. These subgroups share the clinical features of skeletal muscle weakness, raised serum levels of creatine kinase (CK), myopathic changes on electromyography and magnetic resonance imaging, but are distinguished by autoantibody profiles, and importantly by muscle histopathology which reflects the distinct pathogenetic mechanisms [1].

Brachio-cervical inflammatory myopathy associated with systemic sclerosis. Case series and review of literature
This study was aimed at describing a case series of brachio-cervical inflammatory myopathy (BCIM) associated with systemic sclerosis (SSc), due to its rarity and limited coverage in published data. Another aim was to provide a literature review. We reported four cases of BCIM-SSc from our tertiary center. In addition, we researched the literature and found six articles featuring 17 patients who fit this phenotype. We pooled all cases and reported their features. Most patients were female and had limited SSc, and the median time of BCIM presentation was three years after SSc diagnosis. Asymmetric muscle involvement, scapula...
