O'Connell, Laura J. Niedernhofer

Summary: Cardiomyopathy is a progressive disease of the myocardium leading to impaired contractility. This study shows that endogenous genotoxic stress contributes to the development of cardiomyopathy by activating the p53 pathway and increasing oxidative stress, leading to cardiac myocyte apoptosis, dilated cardiomyopathy, and sudden death.

Clinical Spectrum and Prognosis in Patients With Acute Nutritional Axonal Neuropathy

Johanna I. Hamel, Eric L. Logigian

Summary: This study retrospectively reviewed cases from 1999 to 2020 to describe the clinical, micronutrient, and electrophysiologic spectra and prognosis of acute nutritional axonal neuropathy (ANAN). The results showed that ANAN has a wide spectrum of manifestations and specific micronutrient deficiencies or risk factors do not predict neuropathy subtype. The prognosis of ANAN is guarded due to slow recovery of independent ambulation and residual neuropathic pain.

SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination and Autoimmune Neuropathies: Rebalancing the Risk

Jeffrey A. Allen

Summary: With every influenza vaccination, the question of previous Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) history is asked, and vaccination is typically advised against for those with GBS. The topic is widely discussed with strong opinions for or against vaccination within patient and physician networks. The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened concerns among the inflammatory neuropathy community and clinicians caring for GBS and CIDP patients, given the global scale of SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy

Anthony Matta, Clement Delmas, Francesco Campelo-Parada, Thibault Lhermusier, Frederic Bouisset, Meyer Elbaz, Vanessa Nader, Stephanie Blanco, Jerome Roncalli, Didier Carrie

Summary: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a clinical condition related to heart failure, with sympathetic nerve stimulation and catecholamine storm playing a role in its development. While the clinical course of the disease is generally mild, life-threatening complications can occur. Coronary angiography, left ventriculogram, transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging are key tools for diagnosis. Treatment usually involves conventional heart failure therapy, unless the patient is in critical condition or experiencing complications.

Nunez-Gil, Ingo Eitel, Thomas Stiermaier

Summary: The type of trigger for Takotsubo syndrome influences the clinical conditions and mortality rate of patients. Patients with emotional triggers are younger, more likely to be female, and have a lower prevalence of comorbidities, while patients with physical triggers are the opposite. Age, gender, diabetes, malignancy, neurological disorders, chest pain, and treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers are predictors of long-term mortality in patients with Takotsubo syndrome.
