Myasthenia Gravis and Ischemic Stroke: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Study
CONCLUSION: Bidirectional MR analysis did not provide evidence to support a causal relationship between genetically predicted MG and IS, although observational studies have found such a potential link.PMID:37403387 | DOI:10.2174/1567202620666230703122140

Bilateral medial medullary stroke: A rare stroke syndrome masquerading as myasthenia crisis in a young diabetic lady
J R Coll Physicians Edinb. 2022 Mar;52(1):30-33. doi: 10.1177/14782715221088914.ABSTRACTBilateral medial medullary stroke is a rare stroke syndrome. The clinical presentation of bilateral medial medullary stroke is heterogenous and often overlaps with other non-stroke neurology emergencies such as Guillain-Barrésyndrome, myasthenic crisis and acute vestibular syndrome, leading to misdiagnosis. We wish to present a case of a young lady with type 1 diabetes mellitus, who had presented with subacute neuromuscular weakness which was erroneously treated as myasthenic crisis. Her case was subsequently diagnosed as bilateral med...

The Potential for Treg-Enhancing Therapies in Nervous System Pathologies
Clin Exp Immunol. 2022 Aug 30:uxac084. doi: 10.1093/cei/uxac084. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWhile inflammation may not be the cause of disease, it is well known that it contributes to disease pathogenesis across a multitude of peripheral and central nervous system disorders. Chronic and overactive inflammation due to an effector T cell-mediated aberrant immune response ultimately leads to tissue damage and neuronal cell death. To counteract peripheral and neuroinflammatory responses, research is being focused on regulatory T cell enhancement as a therapeutic target. Regulatory T cells are an immunosuppressive subpopulat...

Neuropathy and Muscle Cramps in Autologous and Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Survivors
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a critical part of the armamentarium in the treatment of many hematologic malignancies. However, both allogeneic and autologous HCT may be associated with high morbidity in survivors. Neurological complications of HCT that may have long-term impact on quality of life (QOL) are often overlooked.1 Both the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) can be involved with CNS complications including infections, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), seizures, and stroke being more prominent in the acute post-HCT period,2 and PNS complications such a...
