Anterior interosseous syndrome is a medical condition in which damage to the anterior interosseous nerve (AIN), a distal motor and sensory branch of the median nerve, classically with severe weakness of the pincer movement of the thumb and index finger, and can cause transient pain in the wrist (the terminal, sensory branch of the AIN innervates the bones of the carpal tunnel).
Disuse is a common cause of muscle atrophy and can be local (due to injury or casting) or general (bed-rest). The rate of muscle atrophy from disuse (10–42 days) is approximately 0.5–0.6% of total muscle mass per day although there is considerable variation between people. [5]
Central core disease (CCD), also known as central core myopathy, is an autosomal dominant inherited [1] muscle disorder present from birth that negatively affects the skeletal muscles. It was first described by Shy and Magee in 1956. [2] [3] It is characterized by the appearance of the myofibril under the microscope. [4]

alpha sarcoglycan Left side-normal muscle /right side LGMD2 There is a variety of research underway targeted at various forms of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Among the treatments thought to hold promise is gene therapy, which is the delivery of genetic material, often a copy of a healthy gene, into cells.
