Cervical extensor muscle activity during neck tasks in individuals with and without neck pain: A systematic review.
Ann Phys Rehabil Med
January 2025
Department of Physical Activity and Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Liège, Allée des Sports, 2, 4000 Liège, Belgium.
Background: In the context of neck pain, neck muscle activity adapts through diverse regional coordination modifications during tasks. Although patterns of cervical flexor muscle impairment are well-documented, patterns in the cervical extensor muscles are less clear, hindering assessment and treatment. Despite studies revealing adaptations in the cervical extensor muscles, outcome measure heterogeneity complicates interpretation, particularly between superficial and deep muscles.

The authors aimed to characterize the incidence of syrinxes and the pattern of congenital anomalies in pediatric patients with VACTERL association, with a specific focus on the presence of idiopathic syrinxes in this population.
Methods: An institutional database was retrospectively queried for all pediatric patients with VACTERL association.
Exercise-Induced Oxygen Desaturation and Outcomes After Nintedanib Therapy for Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease in Patients Without Dyspnea.
J Clin Med
December 2024
Division of Respirology, Neurology and Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Kurume University School of Medicine, Asahi-Machi 67, Kurume 830-0011, Japan.
The degree of exercise-induced oxygen desaturation and outcomes following antifibrotic drug therapy in asymptomatic patients with fibrosing interstitial lung disease (FILD) remain unclear. We compared clinical data, incidence of annual FILD progression, overall survival, and tolerability after initiating nintedanib between 58 patients with dyspnea and 18 patients without. Annual FILD progression was defined as >10% decrease in forced vital capacity (FVC), >15% decrease in diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (D), developing acute exacerbations, or FILD-related death within 1 year of starting nintedanib.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne)
January 2025
Baoding Hospital, Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated with Capital Medical University, Baoding, China.
Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the clinical presentation and underlying genetic etiology of a Chinese child diagnosed with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP).
Methods: Clinical data from a pediatric patient with ICPP, including medical history, physical examination findings, laboratory results, and imaging studies, were collected and analyzed. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed to identify potential pathogenic genetic variants underlying the patient's ICPP.
Electrical storm in a patient with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease treated with radiofrequency ablation and subsequent serious complication of implantable cardioverter defibrillator implantation: a case report.
Eur Heart J Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine and Cardiology, Faculty of Medicine, University Hospital Ostrava, University of Ostrava, 17. listopadu 1790, 708 52 Ostrava, Czech Republic.
Background: Charcot-Marie-Tooth is the most common inherited neuromuscular disorder. Rarely, it can be associated with heart failure and various arrhythmic disturbances. This case illustrates the challenges of making decisions to prevent sudden cardiac death in a patient with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
