Successful catheter ablation of a  left posterolateral accessory bypass tract and periinterventional management in a patient with MELAS syndrome
AbstractMELAS syndrome is defined as a  combination of mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes resulting from mutations in mitochondrial DNA. All medical interventions in these patients appear challenging due to a high risk of lactate acidosis or anesthesiological complications. Of note, previou s reports suggest that these patients have a higher incidence of Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome. Here, a case of successful catheter ablation of a posteroseptal bypass tract using analgosedation in a patient with MELAS syndrome combined with WPW syndrome is presented.

Prior Alcohol Use does not Enhance Skeletal Muscle Atrophy and Force Decrements Induced by Cancer Cachexia
CONCLUSIONS: Tumor-bearing mice produced less force during a tetanic stimulation and fatigue protocol, in accordance with significant muscle atrophy of the triceps surae. The prior consumption of EtOH did not worsen cancer-induced deficits in skeletal muscle contraction. As it has been shown previously that the continuation of EtOH throughout the progression of cancer enhances cancer cachexia, these data exemplify the clinical benefits of stopping EtOH consumption as early as possible.PMID:35556305 | DOI:10.1096/fasebj.2022.36.S1.R2968

Apnea with ketamine sedation in a patient with severe anorexia nervosa: A case report
CONCLUSIONS: This case describes apnea after ketamine sedation in a patient with severe anorexia nervosa. It supports the importance of a thorough pre-procedure review of a patient's underlying medical problems and the consideration of how sedatives may interact with these conditions. We aim to alert those who care for this complex population of the possible altered neurotransmitters, myopathy, and adverse response to sedation, anesthetics, and analgesics.PMID:33788180 | DOI:10.1007/s40519-021-01176-7

Combined Muscle Biopsy and Comprehensive Electrophysiology in General Anesthesia is Valuable in Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Disease in Children
Conclusion Results supporting a neuromuscular abnormality were found in 15 of 24. In six patients (25%), we confirmed a genetic diagnosis and 12 had a clinical neuromuscular diagnosis. The study suggests that combined use of neurophysiology and muscle biopsy in cases where genetic testing does not provide a diagnosis can be useful in children with delayed motor milestones and clinical evidence of a neuromuscular disease.

Anaesthesia challenges of a parturient with paramyotonia congenita and terminal filum lipoma presenting for labour and caesarean section under epidural anaesthesia – a case report
Paramyotonia congenita is a rare autosomal dominant myopathy which presents with periodic weakness due to cold and exercise. It is caused by mutations of the SCN4 gene which encodes the sodium channel in skele...

Anesthetic management of achild with Marinesco Sjogren syndrome for cataract surgery.
We report the anesthetic management of a child diagnosed with Marinesco Sjogren syndrome (MSS) scheduled for bilateral lens aspiration.MSS is an autosomal recessive multisystem disorder clinically characterized by cerebellar ataxia, cataract, myopathy,global developmental delay, and variable intellect first described by Marinesco et al in 1931.1-3 The neuro-radiologic hallmarks include cerebellar hypoplasia and a small posterior fossa.1 Sixty percent of patients have been found to have SIL1 gene mutation linked to chromosome 5q31.

Neuromuscular Blockade Applicability in Early Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Papazianet al.1 reported in 2010 that use of neuromuscular blocking agents within 48  h of development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) had a positive effect on survival in patients with severe disease (Pao2/Fio2 less than 120 mmHg) compared with management with deep sedation alone. Supporting this survival benefit, a retrospective study by Steingrubet al.2 reported lower in-hospital mortality when mechanically ventilated patients with severe sepsis and a respiratory source of infection received neuromuscular blocking agents within the first two hospital days (treated: 31.9%, untreated: 39.3% in-hospital mor...

Critical Illness and the Frailty Syndrome: Mechanisms and Potential Therapeutic Targets.
Abstract Frailty is a syndrome characterized by decreased reserves across multiple physiologic systems resulting in functional limitations and vulnerability to new stressors. Physical frailty develops over years in community-dwelling older adults but presents or worsens within days in the intensive care unit (ICU) because common mechanisms governing age-related physical frailty are often exacerbated by critical illness. The hallmark of physical frailty is a combined loss of muscle mass, force, and endurance. About one-third of ICU patients have frailty before hospitalization, which increases their risk for both sh...

The R168G heterozygous mutation of tropomyosin 3 (TPM3) was identified in three family members and has manifestations ranging from asymptotic to serve scoliosis and respiratory complications
Publication date: Available online 25 January 2020Source: Genes & DiseasesAuthor(s): Haoyue Xu, Hang Liu, Tao Chen, Bo song, Jin Zhu, Xing Liu, Ming Li, Cong LuoAbstractAccording to existing reports, mutations in the slow tropomyosin gene (TPM3) may lead to congenital fiber-type disproportion (CFTD), nemaline myopathy (NM) and cap myopathy (CD). They are all congenital myopathies and are associated with clinical, pathological and genetic heterogeneity. A ten-year-old girl with scoliosis was unable to wean from mechanical ventilation after total intravenous anesthesia. The girl has scoliosis, respiratory insufficiency, moti...
