Abstract:
Hypokalaemic periodic paralysis typically presents with intermittent mild-to-moderate weakness lasting hours to days. We report a case with an uncommon phenotype of late-onset myopathy without episodic paralytic attacks. Initial work-up including muscle biopsy was inconclusive. A subsequent review of the right deltoid biopsy, long exercise testing and repeated family history was helpful, followed by appropriate genetic testing. We identified a heterozygous pathogenic mutation in calcium ion channel (CACNA1S:c.1583G>A p.Arg528His) causing hypokalaemic periodic paralysis. Myopathy can present

Abstract:
Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (HyperPP) is an autosomal dominant muscle sodium channelopathy characterized by recurrentepisode of reversible paralysis with concomitant hyperkalemia. The diagnosis of HyperPP is suggested by a history of attacks ofparalysis, positive family history, and the presence of myotonia. A 19-year-old man presented with recurrent generalized limbweakness since childhood. The paralysis often followed by fatigue, exercise, and fasting. His parents were clinically unaffectedand had never experienced paralytic symptoms. Electromyographic evaluation demonstrated myotonic di

Abstract:
Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is characterized by recurrent episodes of muscle weakness and hypokalemia associated with thyroid hyperactivity. Reported predominantly among individuals of Asian descent, TPP is a rare manifestation of hyperthyroidism in western populations. We describe a typical case of TPP in a 33-year-old portuguese male, who presented with acute tetraparesis associated with hypokalemia (K+ 2.6 mEq/L). The patient had a 8-week history of several episodes of paraparesis of variable intensity; these attacks were usually nocturnal, preceded by strenuous exercise and resolve

Shreya, Kumar Nabin, Ahmad Ansari Fayaz, and Kumar Jha Anand. "Abstract Aim: To determine the impact of Botulinum Toxin on Cervical Dystonia and its influence on Quality of Life. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted in the Department of physical medicine and rehabilitation, ESIC Medical College, Bihta, Patna, Bihar, India. Male and female patients aged between 18 and 80 years who fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for primary CD, had good consciousness and comprehension of the HRQoL questionnaires, and could communicate in and understand Thai language were included in the study. All the patients were included and completed the study. To assess the disease-specific HRQoL, this study used the CDIP58 and CDQ-24. This study employed the SF-36 and the EQ-5D to assess patients' general HRQoL. Results: Mean duration of symptoms in enrolled patients was 5.0 years (range from 0 to 12 years). There were 16 cases of torticollis, two of laterocollis, one of anterocollis, and one of latrocollis included in the study. The previous mean number of botulinum toxin A injections received per patient was 8.85±5.32 injections, ranging from 1 to 22. After 24 weeks of treatment, the mean (SD) score of all eight domains of CDIP-58 including head and neck symptoms, pain and discomfort, upper limb activities, walking, sleep, annoyance, mood, and psychosocial functioning were significantly improved (P<0.001) (Table 2). The mean (SD) of each of the five categories of CDQ-24 was also significantly improved with P-values of 0.004, 0.001, 0.003, 0.001, and 0.0005 for stigma, emotional well-being, pain, activities of daily living, and social and family life, respectively (Table 2). After 24 weeks of treatment, the mean values of results of all eight domains of SF-36 did not significantly improved. The P-values for PF, RP, RE, VT, mental health, SF, BP, and GH are 0.726, 1.000, 0.505, 0.349, 0.115, 0.171, 0.427, and 0.380 respectively. The mean score of each category of EQ-5D including mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression revealed a nonsignificant change (P>0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, the quality of life of CD patients improved after multiple botulinum toxin A injections. Each injection of botulinum toxin A seems to have cumulative effects in multiple-injection patients. The direct mechanism behind an improvement in physical health is well understood; however, that behind mental health is less obvious. A relief of dystonia could make a positive difference to patients' relaxation state and stress level, which would account for mental improvement."

Aiming to make an intervention in both emerging Slow Cinema and classical Trauma Cinema scholarship, this thesis demonstrates the ways in which the post-trauma cinema of Filipino filmmaker Lav Diaz merges aesthetics of cinematic slowness with narratives of post-trauma in his films Melancholia (2008), Death in the Land of Encantos (2007) and Florentina Hubaldo, CTE (2012). Diaz has been repeatedly considered as representative of what Jonathan Romney termed in 2004 “Slow Cinema”. The director uses cinematic slowness for an alternative approach to an on-screen representation of post-trauma. Contr
