Association of Hospital-Diagnosed Infections and Antibiotic Use With Risk of Developing Guillain-Barre Syndrome

Lotte S. Levison et al.

Summary: The study found a strong temporal association between community antibiotic use, especially infections necessitating hospitalization, and the risk of subsequent GBS. The risk of GBS was highest in the first month after infection, but remained increased even in the fifth month after infection, highlighting the importance of recognizing the relationship between infection and GBS.

Motor unit reserve capacity in spinal muscular atrophy during fatiguing endurance performance

Laura E. Habets et al.

Summary: The study investigated motor unit reserve capacity in SMA patients during submaximal performance intensities in endurance shuttle tests. The findings showed decreased median frequencies and increased amplitudes in patients, indicating potential therapeutic targets for reducing fatigability in individual SMA patients. Differences in sEMG responses were observed between patients and healthy controls during endurance testing.
