Article Abstract

The neuromuscular patients may experience the need for respiratory support due to the onset of respiratory failure. Some skills are essential to achieve therapeutic success. In addition to technical knowledge, it is essential to have knowledge relating to individual neuromuscular diseases. The availability of alternative respiratory supports and various interfaces can be a valuable weapon at different moments in the course of the neuromuscular disease. Furthermore, the doctor-patient relationship plays a key role as does taking care of the patient's psychological sphere.

Autoimmune nodopathies: emerging insights and clinical implications.

Curr Opin Neurol

October 2025

Neuromuscular Diseases Unit, Department of Neurology, IR SANT PAU, Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, CIBERER, Barcelona, Spain.

Purpose Of Review: Autoimmune nodopathies (AN) are a recognized distinct group of immune-mediated peripheral neuropathies with unique immunopathological features and therapeutic implications. This review synthesizes recent advances in their pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management, which have refined their clinical classification and informed targeted treatment strategies.

Recent Findings: AN are characterized by autoantibodies targeting surface proteins in the nodal-paranodal area (anti-contactin-1, anti-contactin-associated protein 1, anti-neurofascin-155, anti-pan-neurofascin), predominantly of IgG4 subclass.

Objectives: This study aims to develop recommendations on reporting baseline features and outcomes from axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) clinical trials based on the recently updated instrument set of the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) core outcome set (COS).

Methods: A steering group (SG) convened a workgroup (WG), consisting of 13 ASAS members including rheumatologists, methodologists, epidemiologists, and 2 Young ASAS members. Recommendations on reporting axSpA trials baseline features and outcomes were developed in 3 steps: (1) the SG identified relevant baseline features from key axSpA clinical trials and formulated a proposal on how outcomes related to the instruments in the ASAS COS should be presented.

Polyneuropathy in Kidney Transplant Recipients: Accuracy of a New Clinical Diagnostic Scoring System.

J Peripher Nerv Syst

September 2025

Department of Neurology, University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, Groningen, the Netherlands.

Background And Aims: Polyneuropathy is highly prevalent among kidney transplant recipients (KTR), underscoring the need for an accurate yet easy-to-perform diagnostic method to improve understanding and enable early identification of treatable cases.

Methods: This study included KTR at least 12 months post-transplant at the University Medical Centre Groningen, the Netherlands. An expert panel assessed polyneuropathy through a structured neurological examination, quantitative sensory testing, and nerve conduction studies.

Despite extensive research, the pathogenesis of Post-Polio Syndrome (PPS) remains unclear. We investigated 251 participants from Northern Italy: long-term polio survivors with PPS, long-term polio survivors with stable polio, family members of both groups, subjects with neurological disorders other than poliomyelitis, and healthy controls. This study investigated whether persistent viral activity or the existence of viral reservoirs contributes to causing PPS.
