Clinica Chimica Acta, 2026
BACKGROUND: Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder of the neuromuscular junction caused by antibodies against the acetylcholine receptor (AChR) or muscle-specific kinase (MuSK). Although these antibodies enable diagnosis, they correlate poorly with disease activity and prognosis. Emerging data suggest that MG involves broader neuroimmune mechanisms beyond the peripheral synapse. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), a marker of astroglial activation, and neurofilament light chain (NfL), a marker of neuroaxonal injury, have been proposed as circulating biomarkers in several neurological diseases. This study aimed to evaluate serum GFAP and NfL concentrations in MG patients and to assess its potential diagnostic utility. METHODS: In this retrospective case-control study, 137 patients with confirmed MG and 338 healthy controls were enrolled. Clinical classification followed MGFA criteria. Anti-AChR and anti-MuSK antibodies were measured by ELISA. Serum GFAP and NfL concentrations were quantified using a fully automated chemiluminescent immunoassay (Lumipulse G1200). Group comparisons were performed using non-parametric tests, correlations using Spearman analysis, and independent determinants assessed with multivariable linear regression. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate diagnostic performance. RESULTS: Serum GFAP concentrations were higher in MG patients than controls (44.6 vs 29.6 pg/mL) and strongly correlated with age (r = 0.64, p < 0.0001), but not with antibody titers. In multivariable regression, age was the main independent determinant of GFAP (β = 0.00827, p < 0.0001), whereas MG status was not. GFAP showed moderate diagnostic performance (AUC = 0.704). In an age- and sex-matched analysis, NfL concentrations were modestly higher in MG patients compared with controls (30.2 vs 15.5 pg/mL; p = 0.047). A moderate positive correlation between GFAP and NfL was observed in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: Circulating GFAP levels are elevated in MG but are primarily driven by age and sex rather than disease-specific mechanisms, limiting their diagnostic utility. NfL shows a modest increase, suggesting subtle neuroaxonal involvement; however, its clinical relevance remains uncertain. Together, these findings indicate that GFAP and NfL reflect non-specific neurobiological processes rather than robust biomarkers of MG.

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2026
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a multimodal assessment including clinical rating scales, brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs), pattern reversal visual evoked potentials (p-VEPs), and serum biomarkers as candidate measures of disease severity in longstanding Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA). METHODS: In a prospective, monocentric cohort, we conducted a cross-sectional baseline assessment of 29 genetically confirmed adult FRDA patients. Disease severity was rated with modified Friedreich Ataxia Rating Scale (mFARS). All underwent BAEPs and/or p-VEPs; available serum markers (NfL, NfH, GFAP, IL-6) were assayed. Associations with mFARS were tested using correlations and multiple linear regression adjusted for age and disease duration. RESULTS: = 0.83), with disease duration (β = 0.62, p = 0.001) and N75 latency (β = 0.45, p = 0.005). Patients with abnormal BAEPs had higher mFARS than those with normal BAEPs (U = 35.0, p = 0.03). mFARS differed across BAEP grades (H(4,N = 28) = 10.22, p = 0.04) and p-VEP grades (H(4,N = 27) = 11.39, p = 0.02). Serum biomarkers showed no consistent association with mFARS. CONCLUSIONS: BAEPs and p-VEPs are highly prevalent and closely associated with clinical severity in chronic FRDA, outperforming tested serum biomarkers. SIGNIFICANCE: Evoked potentials provide accessible, non-invasive, quantitative candidate biomarkers for severity assessment and longitudinal monitoring in FRDA, supporting their use in clinical practice and trial design when fluid markers are inconclusive.

Neurology and Therapy, 2026
INTRODUCTION: Generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) is a rare chronic autoimmune disorder of the neuromuscular junction caused by pathogenic autoantibodies directed against a postsynaptic target. The therapeutic landscape of gMG has recently expanded with the introduction of FcRn inhibitors. This study aimed to assess the real-world effectiveness and safety of efgartigimod (EFG) in AChR-positive gMG patients who failed or were intolerant to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg). METHODS: EFG was administered as four consecutive weekly intravenous infusions at 10 mg/kg. Treatment efficacy was evaluated using the Myasthenia Gravis Activity of Daily Living (MG-ADL) and Myasthenia Gravis quantitative (QMG) scales at baseline and after 4 weeks. Incidence of adverse events and prednisone use were collected at each time point. RESULTS: Thirteen patients (6 women and 7 men, mean age 52.9 years) received EFG following IVIg therapy. After one treatment cycle, both MG-ADL and QMG scores showed significant clinical improvement. MG-ADL responder rate (MG-ADL reduction > 2) was 84.6% while 69.2% on QMG (QMG reduction > 3). Minimal symptom expression was reached in one patient, accompanied by a mean reduction in daily prednisone dose of 6.9 mg. CONCLUSION: In this real-world cohort, efgartigimod demonstrated a rapid and meaningful clinical benefit with a favorable tolerability profile in patients with AChR-positive gMG after IVIg failure or intolerance. These findings support the potential role of EFG as an effective therapeutic option in this difficult-to-treat population.

European Journal of Neurology, 2026
Background The F64L variant is among the most frequent TTR mutations in Italy, typically associated with a predominantly neurologic phenotype and limited cardiac involvement. Methods Data from 181 ATTRv patients in the multicenter Patisiranitaly database treated with Patisiran since 2020 were analyzed. Neurologic impairment scores, Norfolk QoL‐DN, and cardiac parameters were compared between F64L ( n = 56), V30M ( n = 37), and non‐F64L ( n = 125) patients at baseline and during follow‐up. Cluster analysis was applied to identify patient subgroups based on these variables. Results F64L represented 30.9% of the cohort. Compared to non‐F64L patients, F64L patients had a higher prevalence of neurologic onset and neurologic phenotype, a thinner interventricular septum, and lower NT‐proBNP levels. Cluster analysis segregated patients into two distinct groups, predominantly reflecting F64L vs. non‐F64L status and corresponding neurologic severity. F64L patients showed milder cardiac involvement compared to V30M patients. Longitudinal repeated‐measures ANOVA showed stable clinical and instrumental measures. Conclusions F64L is characterized by predominant neurologic involvement and milder cardiac involvement in this Patisiran‐treated cohort. Mutation‐specific diagnostic and follow‐up strategies are essential to capture its natural history and treatment response.

Nerve Ultrasound in Pediatric Polyneuropathies: A Systematic Review
Simona Maccora, Vincenzo Di Stefano, Filippo Brighina, Sabrina Sacconi, Angela Puma
Neuropediatrics, 2026
The diagnosis of peripheral polyneuropathy in children and the differential diagnosis among its various forms often present a challenge, also because electrodiagnostic studies can be painful and sometimes yield inconclusive results. This systematic review examines the role of nerve ultrasound (n-US) in the diagnosis and follow-up of pediatric polyneuropathies. We searched PubMed and Embase from 1975 to April 1, 2025. Included studies assessed patients aged ≤ 18 years with clinically and neurophysiologically confirmed polyneuropathy, providing pediatric-specific qualitative or quantitative n-US findings. Eighteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Six focused on acquired inflammatory polyneuropathies (three on Guillain–Barré Syndrome [GBS], three on Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy [CIDP]), eight on Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT), two on lysosomal storage disorders, one on Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix–Saguenay (ARSACS), and one on mixed etiologies. Most (n = 7) were case reports. Cross-sectional area and nerve enlargement (NE) distribution were the main parameters evaluated. Marked, diffuse NE was found in demyelinating CMT and lysosomal disorders; CIDP showed diffuse and multifocal NE; GBS presented mild and proximal NE. No NE was reported in axonal CMT or ARSACS. Few studies assessed echogenicity or fascicular structure; none evaluated vascularization. n-US shows promise in differentiating demyelinating conditions such as CMT, CIDP, GBS, and certain metabolic syndromes in children. However, further age-matched control studies are needed, given that nerve growth and myelination peak between 15 and 17 years. Future research should explore n-US as an early diagnostic, screening, and follow-up tool.

Epilepsy and Behavior, 2026
People with Epilepsy exhibit low levels of physical activity compared with the general population, despite evidence suggesting potential benefits for seizure control, physical fitness and psychosocial well-being. Persistent barriers such as fear of seizures, limited access to supervised programs, transportation difficulties, and time constraints contribute to sedentary behaviour. Telecoaching (TC), which delivers structured exercise programs through digital technologies, may help overcome these barriers. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the feasibility and potential effects of TC-based training physical activity interventions in individuals with epilepsy, focusing on adherence, QoL, physical fitness and psychological outcomes. A systematic search of PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus identified 1086 records, of which 7 studies involving 342 participants met the inclusion criteria. Interventions included remotely delivered aerobic, resistance, flexibility, and combined exercise programs. Study quality ranged from "fair" to "good". TC-based interventions were generally safe and feasible, with no major adverse events reported. Evidence suggest potential benefits for physical fitness and psychosocial outcomes, particularly in paediatric populations, although the limited number and heterogeneity of studies preclude definitive conclusions, especially regarding seizure-related outcomes. Future research should focus on standardized TC programs, long-term follow-up, and adequately powered randomized trials to confirm effectiveness and sustainability.

Healthcare Switzerland, 2026
Background: Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by fluctuating skeletal muscle weakness and fatigue, leading to reduced functional independence and impaired quality of life (QoL). Although exercise has historically been discouraged due to concerns about symptom exacerbation, emerging evidence suggest that structured exercise programs may be safe and beneficial in clinically stable patients. This systematic review critically evaluates current evidence on exercise and physical activity interventions in MG, focusing on effectiveness, safety, and impact on functional outcomes, fatigue, and QoL. Materials and Methods: A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Searches were performed in PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus and ScienceDirect for studies published between 2015 and 2025. Keywords included MG, physical activity, aerobic training, resistance training, and respiratory muscle training. Methodological quality was assessed using the Downs and Black checklist. Results: Eight controlled studies met the inclusion criteria, encompassing aerobic, resistance, combined, and respiratory muscle training interventions. Sample sizes ranged from small pilot studies to moderate-size randomized controlled trials. Overall, exercise interventions were well tolerated, with no evidence of sustained symptoms exacerbation. Aerobic and combined programs consistently improved functional capacity, muscle strength, and activities of daily living. Respiratory muscle training demonstrated improvements in pulmonary function and inspiratory muscle strength, although findings were more heterogeneous. Study quality ranged from poor to excellent, with common limitations including small sample size, short follow-up duration, and heterogeneity in exercise programs. Conclusions: Current evidence supports the safety and potential efficacy of individualized, symptom-guided exercise interventions in clinically stable MG. Regular physical activity exercise may reduce secondary deconditioning, improve functional outcomes, and enhance QoL. However, larger, high-quality randomized controlled trials with standardized programs and longer follow-up periods are required to strengthen clinical recommendations and clarify long-term effects.

Erj Open Research, 2026
<title>Extract</title> Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare, autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by reduced survival motor neuron (SMN) protein due to mutations in the SMN1 gene [1]. In humans, this protein is also produced by a “backup” gene, SMN2. Two drugs, nusinersen and risdiplam, are available, which lead to the production of more full-length, functional SMN protein from the SMN2 gene [2].
