Exercise increases #Mitochondria biogenesis!!! Excellent talk on treatment of mitochondrial diseases by Dr. Michio Hirano #AANAM #AAN2024

Our poster this morning 13-005 #AANAM #AAN2024 on Critical illness #myopathy : longer CMAP duration correlates with the presence of #myosin loss! And probably prognosis Shahar Shelly M.D.

Made it to the #AANAM #AAN2024 ! It is nice to meet my former fellows, who are now big shots in their institute Shahar Shelly M.D & Grayson Beecher and of course my current super fellows, Mike Skolka & Brendan Putko.

World #Sarcoidosis Day (April 13, 2024): brining back our work on symptomatic #myopathy in sarcoidosis is not always #sarcoid myopathy. #IBM is not uncommon in this group of patients. academic.oup.com/rheumatology/a…

This study elucidates the pathologic features of myositis associated with anti-Ku antibodies, compared with immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy with anti–SRP and anti–HMGCR antibodies: bit.ly/3J9SXB0

One of the issues in inpatient #neuromuscular practice is how to distinguish between #rhabdomyolysis and Seronegative #NecrotizingAutoimmuneMyopathy . In my opinion, taking a good #history & serial #CK measurement are the keys! Mayo Clinic Neurology Residency
