K-means clustering algorithms: A comprehensive review, variants analysis, and advances in the era of big data

Abiodun M. Ikotun et al.

Summary: Advances in data collection techniques have enabled the accumulation of large quantities of data. The K-means algorithm, while popular, has challenges such as determining the number of clusters and detecting non-Euclidean shapes. Research efforts have been made to improve its performance and robustness.

Intrinsic motor neuron excitability is increased after resistance training in older adults

Lucas B. R. Orssatto et al.

Summary: This study examined the effects of high-intensity resistance training on motor neuron persistent inward current (PIC) estimates in older adults. The results showed that PIC amplitudes increased after resistance training, resulting in increased motor neuron discharge rates and improvements in strength and functional capacity. These findings suggest that increased motor neuron excitability mediated by enhanced PIC amplitudes is a potential mechanism underlying the benefits of resistance training in older adults.

Nusinersen in Adults with 5q Spinal Muscular Atrophy: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Maria Gavriilaki et al.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the efficacy and safety of nusinersen in patients older than 12 years with 5q spinal muscular atrophy (5q-SMA). The results showed significant improvements in motor function and upper limb function in patients, but no changes in walking ability and pulmonary function. Despite the low quality of evidence, the study confirmed that nusinersen is a valuable treatment option for adult 5q-SMA patients.

Systematic Review of Motor Function Scales and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Spinal Muscular Atrophy

Jennifer W. Wu et al.

Summary: This article systematically reviewed the utility and limitations of motor function scales and patient-reported outcomes in evaluating patients with spinal muscular atrophy. The study identified 15 commonly used motor function scales and patient-reported outcomes, each with its own strengths and limitations. When selecting appropriate assessment tools, it is important to consider the patient population, treatment goals, and outcomes of interest.

Motor unit recovery following Smn restoration in mouse models of spinal muscular atrophy

Laura H. Comley et al.

Summary: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a childhood motor neuron disease caused by anomalies in the SMN1 gene. Restoration of Smn levels can reduce neuromuscular junction pathology, but the recovery is incomplete. This study is of great significance for improving the treatment effect.

Summary: This study detected specific motor unit (MU) abnormalities in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using high-density surface electromyography (HD-SEMG). The results showed that ALS patients had abnormal MU firing behavior compared to controls, and these abnormalities were correlated with disease severity.

Risdiplam in Type 1 Spinal Muscular Atrophy

Giovanni Baranello et al.

Summary: In a study involving 21 infants with type 1 spinal muscular atrophy, treatment with oral risdiplam resulted in increased levels of functional SMN protein in the blood. Infants in the high-dose group were more likely to sit without support for at least 5 seconds, and the higher dose of risdiplam was selected for the second part of the study.

Safety, Tolerability, and Effect of Nusinersen Treatment in Ambulatory Adults With 5q-SMA

Bakri Elsheikh et al.

Summary: The study found that nusinersen treatment is safe and well-tolerated in ambulatory adults with spinal muscular atrophy, resulting in improved motor function and muscle strength. The 6-min walk test showed significant increases at 2, 6, and 10 months post-treatment, while the maximal voluntary isometric muscle contraction testing demonstrated stability.

Bakri Elsheikh et al.

Summary: The study investigated the safety, tolerability, and treatment effect of nusinersen in non-ambulatory adults with SMA. The results showed that nusinersen treatment, including C1/C2 delivery, was overall safe and well-tolerated. Although motor outcomes remained stable, there were increases in motor unit and CMAP size observed.

Motor unit changes in children with symptomatic spinal muscular atrophy treated with nusinersen

Didu Kariyawasam et al.

Summary: The study showed that intrathecal nusinersen treatment in children with symptomatic spinal muscular atrophy increased CMAP, MUNE, and N50, with a greater impact seen in children with shorter disease durations. This suggests that nusinersen therapy may improve functional innervation in SMA by promoting recovery of smaller motor units, potentially providing insights for novel targets in disease modification for motor neuropathies.

Update on Biomarkers in Spinal Muscular Atrophy

Megan G. Pino et al.

Summary: The availability of disease modifying therapies for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) has created a need to identify clinically meaningful biomarkers, which can provide insight into disease progression and reveal biologic, physiologic, or pharmacologic phenomena occurring prior to clinical detection. Efforts to identify such biomarkers have resulted in the discovery of various molecular and physiologic markers that can evaluate biological media or nervous system function, with some showing potential for predicting disease severity and treatment response.
