Myopathies Turkington, Carol A.
Definition

Myopathies are diseases of skeletal muscle which are not caused by nerve disorders. These diseases cause the skeletal or voluntary muscles to become weak or wasted. Description
There are many different types of myopathies, some of which are inherited, some inflammatory, and some caused by endocrine problems. Myopathies are rare and not usually fatal. Typically, effects are mild, largely causing muscle weakness and movement problems, and many are transitory. Only rarely will patients become dependent on a wheelchair. However, muscular dystrophy (which is technically a form of myopathy) is far more severe. Some types of this disease are fatal in early adulthood. Causes and symptoms
Myopathies are usually degenerative, but they are sometimes caused by drug side effects, chemical poisoning, or a chronic disorder of the immune system.
Genetic myopathies Among their many functions, genes are responsible for overseeing the production of proteins important in maintaining healthy cells. Muscle cells produce thousands of proteins. With each of the inherited myopathies, a genetic defect is linked to a lack of, or problem with, one of the proteins needed for normal muscle cell function. There are several different kinds of myopathy caused by defective genes:
  • Central core disease
  • Centronuclear (myotubular) myopathy
  • Myotonia congenita
  • Nemaline myopathy
  • Paramyotonia congenita
  • Periodic paralysis (hypokalemic and hyperkalemic forms)

Myopathies
The EMG shows typical changes in cases of myopathy. The classical EMG abnormalities have been interpreted as beeing signs of loss of muscle fibres but also other changes take place in the motor unit in myopathies. SFEMG recordings indicate that local concentration of muscle fibres in a given motor unit, the so called fibre density is increased . At the same time the total size of the motor unit, investigated with Macro EMG is unchanged or small. These findings indicate that also regenerative processes are present. This picture changes with time related to the dynamic changes in the motor unit. In early stages of myopathy there is increased signal amplitudes in some type of EMG recordings (Macro EMG). This may be due to compensatory fibre hypertrophy and subsequent splitting in inherently weak muscle fibres, or hypertrophy after overuse of noninvolved muscle groups. In later stages, findings compatible desynchronisation of the electrical acitivity (polyphasic and complex MUPs) may reflect fibre diameter variation, a typical biopsy findings. With progression, many parameters indicate more profound changes in motor unit topography such as loss of fibres in certain areas of the motor unit (Scanning EMG) and local regenerative processes with splitting, innervation of sequestered muscle fibres or regenerating muscle fibres. In Scanning EMG, in which an electrode, e.g a concentric needle electrode is pulled through the muscle in small steps (50um), the electrical cross section of the motor unit is obtained. In myopathies this technique has revealed silent areas indicating focal loss of fibres in the motor unit.

Autoimmune myopathies are a group of diseases that involve inflammation of the muscles and may be associated with diseases of internal organs. Diseases affecting muscles include polymyositis, dermatomyositis and inclusion body myositis. The main symptom is muscle weakness in the upper arms, upper legs and neck, muscle pain, fatigue, joint pain and swelling, rashes over the face and knuckles, fevers, swallowing difficulty and shortness of breath. CAUSE The cause of myopathies is unknown, but environmental factors (such as viral infections) and genetic predisposition are felt to be important in some cases. HEALTH IMPACT
  • Only about 1 new case per 100,000 is diagnosed each year. Myopathies occur two to three times more frequently in women than men. Severity of disease varies from a mild form with almost no symptoms to a severe, life-threatening disease.
DIAGNOSIS Diagnosis is attained through a history and physical exam, certain laboratory tests, muscle biopsy and electromyography (a study of the electrical activity of muscle). Other diseases or conditions such as hypothyroidism, toxin exposure, drug reactions and genetic disorders may also affect muscles and need to be ruled out.

    Douglas Zochodne Abstract: Myopathies that occur in the intensive care unit can be divided into preexisting myopathies or newly acquired myopathies that develop in the intensive care unit. Myotonic dystrophy is an example of a preexisting myopathy that may render patients susceptible to acute respiratory failure following surgical procedures and anaesthesia. A group of myopathies that develop within the intensive care unit have been labelled acute necrotizing myopathy of intensive care, thick filament myopathy and acute steroid myopathy. Corticosteroids and nondepolarizing muscle blocking agents may play a role in their development. Can. J. Neurol. Sci. 1998; 25: S41 - S42
