Incidence, Prevalence, and Geographical Clustering of Motor Neuron Disease in the Netherlands

Adriaan D. de Jongh et al.

Summary: The study observed an increasing trend in MND incidence and prevalence in the Netherlands from 1998 to 2017. There were differences in mortality rates between men and women, with higher rates occurring at a later age for men. Geographic variability in MND risk was also identified, implying potential roles of environmental or demographic factors.

Global, regional, and national burden of Guillain-Barre syndrome and its underlying causes from 1990 to 2019

Nicola Luigi Bragazzi et al.

Summary: This study provides the first detailed analysis of the prevalence and disability burden of Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) from 1990 to 2019 worldwide. The prevalence of GBS continues to increase globally, with higher rates in males across age groups. Geographical differences and strategies for preventing infectious diseases should be considered in future health policy planning and decision-making processes. The study has limitations that need to be addressed in future research.

Myasthenia Gravis in Poland: National Healthcare Database Epidemiological Study

Ewa Sobieszczuk et al.

Summary: The study conducted in Poland for the first time looked into the epidemiology of Myasthenia gravis (MG) using data from the National Health Fund (NFZ) database. Results showed that as of January 1, 2019, there were 8,702 MG patients receiving symptomatic treatment, with a female to male ratio of 1.65:1. The incidence of MG was 2.36 per 100,000, with different age groups showing variations in prevalence and onset of the disease. This information can be valuable for evaluating healthcare resources needed for MG patients.

The prevalence of hereditary neuromuscular disorders in Northern Norway

Kai Ivar Mueller et al.

Summary: The aim of the study was to investigate the point prevalence of hereditary neuromuscular disorders in Northern Norway on January 1, 2020. The study found a total prevalence of 111.9/100,000, with higher rates for myotonia congenita and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. The prevalence of Charcot-Marie-Tooth polyneuropathy was higher compared to most European studies.
