Article Synopsis
- In utero exposure to maternal antibodies against fetal acetylcholine receptors can cause severe conditions like arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) and the milder fetal acetylcholine receptor inactivation syndrome (FARIS), but the full impact remains unclear.
- A study of 46 cases reveals that many affected mothers did not have prior diagnoses of myasthenia gravis, suggesting underreporting and missed preventative measures.
- Among the findings, significant long-term effects in surviving infants included various physical weaknesses, respiratory issues, and unexpected conditions like hearing loss; treatment with oral salbutamol showed promising improvement in symptoms for many children.

Background: Contrast-induced encephalopathy (CIE) is a rare transient, reversible abnormality in the structure or function of the nervous system caused by the intravascular use of contrast agents. CIE can present with a range of neurological manifestations, including focal neurological deficits (hemiplegia, hemianopia, cortical blindness, aphasia, and parkinsonism) and systemic symptoms (confusion, seizures, and coma). However, if not accurately diagnosed and treated in a timely manner, CIE can cause irreversible damage to patients, especially critically ill patients.
