Article Synopsis
- * The article discusses a genetically confirmed case of a young woman with progressive muscle weakness and eye movement problems, linked to a novel mutation in the ORAI-1 gene.
- * Muscle imaging revealed fatty infiltration and a biopsy indicated congenital fiber-type disproportion, expanding the known symptoms of ORAI-1-related myopathy to include these specific features.
Background: Congenital myopathies (CMs) though considered distinct disorders, simultaneous occurrence of central nucleus, nemaline rods, and cores in the same biopsy are scarcely reported.
Objective: A retrospective reassessment of cases diagnosed as CMs to look for multiple pathologies missed, if any, during the initial diagnosis.
Materials And Methods: Enzyme histochemical, and immunohistochemical-stained slides from 125 cases diagnosed as congenital myopathy were reassessed.
Background: The interest in oral candidosis has waxed and waned from the period of Hippocrates. The acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic has certainly bolstered these figures on oral candidosis, with diabetes and oral cancer being no exception. A need for rapid detection of Candida is made possible by the use of Calcofluor - White (CFW) stain when examined under a fluorescence microscope.
