Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease: A case report initially manifested by bilateral vocal cord paralysis.
Respir Med Case Rep
January 2025
Children's Medical Center, Pediatric Center of Excellence, Tehran, Iran.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth is an inherited disorder involving multiple genes, causing progressive nerve damage affecting sensation and movement. The complexity of the condition often leads to various possible diagnoses along with neuropathic diseases, sometimes resulting in significant delays in diagnosis and treatment. Thorough clinical examinations, suspicion based on symptoms, electromyography, nerve conduction tests, and specific genomic testing can expedite diagnosis.

Front Hum Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Kowloon, Hong Kong SAR, China.
Background: Bimanual motor training is an effective neurological rehabilitation strategy. However, its use has rarely been investigated in patients with paralysis caused by spinal cord injury (SCI). Therefore, we conducted a case study to investigate the effects of robot-assisted task-oriented bimanual training (RBMT) on upper limb function, activities of daily living, and movement-related sensorimotor activity in a patient with SCI.

Int J Surg Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Vascular Surgery, Royal Perth Hospital, Perth 6000, Australia; University of Western Australia, School of Surgery, Perth 6000, Australia. Electronic address:
Introduction: We present a unique case of acute aortic occlusion secondary to infective endocarditis (IE).
Presentation Of Case: An Aboriginal Australian woman with systemic lupus erythematosus presented with fever, confusion, tachycardia, and tachypnoea and had cold, pulseless, insensate, and paralysed lower limbs. Computed tomography angiography revealed multifocal occlusion of the distal aorta and lower limb vessels.
Ultrasound Evaluation of Upper Limb Sublesional Muscle Morphology in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury.
Muscle Nerve
January 2025
International Collaboration on Repair Discoveries (ICORD), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Introduction/aims: Upper limb paralysis is arguably the most limiting consequence of cervical spinal cord injury (cSCI). There is limited knowledge regarding the early structural changes of muscles implicated in grasp/pinch function and upper extremity nerve transfer surgeries. We evaluated: (1) muscle size and echo intensity (EI) in subacute cSCI (2-6 months) and (2) the influence of lower motor neuron (LMN) damage on these ultrasound parameters.

The left-handed women in her 20s developed 'fast micrographia' after a traumatic brain injury from a traffic accident, showing bilateral subdural haematomas and frontal lobe contusions, but she had no paralysis and extrapyramidal symptoms. Neuropsychological tests showed reduced processing speed and memory deficits, aligning with frontal lobe damage.
