Article Synopsis
- HyperCKaemia, or elevated serum creatine kinase (CK), is frequently seen in various myopathies but can also occur in neurological disorders, making diagnosis challenging.
- A case of a 58-year-old man illustrates the complexity, as he had a long history of muscle cramps and high CK levels, and was diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A through genetic testing.
- Further genetic testing revealed a new variant related to dystrophinopathy, emphasizing the need to thoroughly investigate high CK levels in patients, even those with neurogenic disorders, to ensure proper monitoring for possible myopathy-related complications.
Detailed studies of microbial growth in bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are required for their suitable design and operation. Here, we report the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) as a tool for in situ and noninvasive quantification of biofilm growth on electrodes (bioanodes). An experimental platform is designed and described in which transparent electrodes are used to allow real-time, 3D biofilm imaging.
