Presentation
Dysferlinopathy refers to a muscular dystrophy that is caused by mutations in the dysferlin gene regardless of the clinical presentation. [jain-foundation.org]
In s-IBM, distinct quadriceps weakness and atrophy should be present. [neupsykey.com]
Cardiac disease may be present in up to 33%. [emedicine.medscape.com]
We hold monthly meetings with educational presentations and we do offer Continuing Education Units (CEUs) through the State of Ohio EMS Commission and the Ohio Board of Nursing. [oh-1dmat.org]
The clinical presentation is that of progressive/relapsing and remitting muscle weakness present for more than 2 months, symmetrical proximal and distal extremity weakness and hyporeflexia. [neuroweb.us]

Prognosis
Beyond that, the different limb-girdle muscular dystrophies have very little in common in terms of inheritance pattern, age of onset, severity of symptoms, prognosis, genetic mutations, or biochemical abnormalities in the muscle cells. [jain-foundation.org]
Prognosis Most patients become wheelchair-bound after 15-20 years of disease onset. About 5% of patients have atypical early involvement of the quadriceps muscle resulting in earlier non-ambulation. [orpha.net]
The course of AMSAN is typically fulminant and the prognosis is generally poor. Median time to regain ability to walk 5 meters with assistance is 1 month. Iv immunoglobulin are less effective than in GBS. [neuroweb.us]

Etiology
Etiology GNE myopathy is caused by biallelic mutations in the GNE gene (9p13.3) which encodes a bi-functional enzyme involved in the sialic acid biosynthetic pathway. [orpha.net]
[…] genetic testing Genetic etiology is informative for diagnosis, genetic counseling and increasingly to guide therapy 54. [slideshare.net]
Thus, the filamentous inclusions occur in different neuromuscular conditions with different etiologies. These findings further raise the question of the specificity of the filamentous inclusions in IBM. [link.springer.com]

Prevention
We describe nine mutations in the dysferlin gene in nine families; five are predicted to prevent dysferlin expression. [moh-it.pure.elsevier.com]

Issuing strict instructions to curb exam malpractices, the High Court directed APDMC to install optimal mark recognition (OMR) scanners at examination centres so as to prevent any tampering with answer sheets at a later stage. [thewire.in]
Treatment of manifestations: Physiotherapy to prevent or treat tightening of the tendo Achilles is helpful. In more advanced cases, lightweight splinting of the ankle (e.g., with an ankle-foot orthosis) can be useful. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
