    Title translation Miopatia por deficiência de carnitina palmitoiltransferase II: atualizando os aspectos genéticos da primeira publicação no Brasil.
    Abstract Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (CPT II) deficiency is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder related to lipid metabolism affecting skeletal muscle. The first cases of CPT II deficiency causing myopathy were reported in 1973. In 1983, Werneck et al published the first two Brazilian patients with myopathy due to CPT II deficiency, where the biochemical analysis confirmed deficient CPT activity in the muscle of both cases. Over the past 40 years since the pioneering publication, clinical phenotypes and genetic loci in the

    Title translation Miastenia gravis triplo-soronegativa: características clínicas e epidemiológicas.
    Abstract Background:
    Objective:  This study aims to describe the frequency and clinical and epidemiological characteristics of patients with triple-SN MG.
    Methods:  This was a retrospective cross-sectional study carried out through the analysis of medical records. Descriptive and analytical statistical analysis was performed comparing subgroups of myasthenic patients, classified according to serological profile.
    Results:  The sample population consisted of 93 MG patients: 85 were positive for antibodies, 80 (86%) with AChR-Abs, 5 (5.4%) with MuSK-Abs, and no MG patients with LRP4-Abs. Eight patients (8.6%) had triple-SN MG; they had a median age at disease onset of 30 years (21-45). Their most common initial symptoms were ptosis, diplopia, and generalized weakness. Most patients presented with mild symptoms at their last visit, reflecting a median MG composite scale score of 4 (0-6), and 75% of patients had an adequate response to treatment.
    Conclusion:  Our study showed a low frequency of triple-SN MG in Brazilian MG patients. Triple-SN MG was predominant in females, who presented with ptosis, diplopia, and generalized weakness, and most patients had an adequate response to immunosuppressive treatment. There was no significant difference between triple-SN MG and the other subgroups.

    Title translation Experiência de um único centro em distrofia muscular de cinturas do tipo autossômica recessiva: série de casos e revisão de literatura.
    Abstract Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a group of myopathies that lead to progressive muscle weakness, predominantly involving the shoulder and pelvic girdles; it has a heterogeneous genetic etiology, with variation in the prevalence of subtypes according to the ethnic backgrounds and geographic origins of the populations. The aim of the present study was to analyze a series of patients with autosomal recessive LGMD (LGMD-R) to contribute to a better characterization of the disease and to find the relative proportion of the different subtypes in a Southern Brazil cohort. The sample population consisted of 36 patients with LGMD-R. A 9-gene targeted next-generation sequencing panel revealed variants in 23 patients with LGMD (64%), and it identified calpainopathy (LGMD-R1) in 26%, dysferlinopathy (LGMD-R2) in 26%, sarcoglycanopathies (LGMD-R3-R5) in 13%, telethoninopathy (LGMD-R7) in 18%, dystroglicanopathy (LGMD-R9) in 13%, and anoctaminopathy (LGMD-R12) in 4% of the patients. In these 23 patients with LGMD, there were 27 different disease-related variants in the

    Abstract We report a patient with early-onset hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1A (HSAN-1A) who developed a distinct phenotype, with tongue fasciculation and atrophy, due to a mutation at serine 331 in the SPTLC1 gene. HSAN-1A manifestation causing tongue fasciculation and atrophy have been rarely found. Our report adds to the growing evidence of the existence of an overlap between hereditary neuropathy and motor neuron disease caused by pathogenic p.S331Y variant in SPTLC1 gene.

    Abstract The authors present a review of the current use of somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) in neurological practice as a non-invasive neurophysiological technique. For this purpose we have reviewed articles published in English or Portuguese in the PubMed and LILACS databases. In this review, we address the role of SSEPs in neurological diseases that affect the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system, especially in demyelinating diseases, for monitoring coma, trauma and the functioning of sensory pathways during surgical procedures. The latter, along with new areas of research, has become one of the most important applications of SSEPs.
