Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are a group of rare but often treatable inherited disorders neuromuscular transmission characterized by fatigable skeletal muscle weakness. In this paper we present the largest phenotypic analysis to date cohort patients carrying pathogenic variant c.1327delG in CHRNE gene, leading CHRNE-CMS.

Myotonic Dystrophy is the most common form of muscular dystrophy in adults, affecting an estimated 10 per 100,000 people. It a multisystemic disorder multiple generations with increasing severity. There are currently no licenced therapies to reverse, slow down or cure its symptoms. In 2009 TREAT-NMD (a global alliance mission improving trial readiness for neuromuscular diseases) and Marigold Foundation held workshop key opinion leaders agree minimal dataset patient registries myotonic...
