As I have constructed these in recent years, this review runs “In reverse” from skeletal muscle retrograde to the motor neuron. All studies were published in 2019 or 2020, and within one year of preparation of this bulleted syllabus. I focus mainly on management issues but there is a bit of pathogenesis mixed in. I hope the review provides a framework for some of the advances in our field in the last year.

Hypothyroid Myopathy

Biopsy specimens of skeletal muscle and peripheral nerve from two dogs with primary hypothyroidism but without clinical neuromuscular disease were studied with histological, histochemical and morphometric techniques. The most prominent change in skeletal muscle was variation in fiber size associated with a pronounced reduction in mean diameter of type II fibers. Type II fiber loss was apparent in the specimen from one dog. No histological or morphometric differences were noted in nerves from either dog compared with an age-matched control. The myopathic findings suggest a preferential metabolic defect in type II muscle fibers.

Skeletal Muscle Weakness

Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a long-term neuromuscular disease that leads to varying degrees of skeletal muscle weakness. The condition is caused by breakdown in communication between nerves and muscles. The underlying defect is a decrease in the number of available acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) at neuro-muscular junctions due to an antibody mediated autoimmune attack.1 The most commonly affected mus-cles are those of the eyes, face and swallowing. The cause of this disease can be understood in view of Dhatavgnimaandhya, Vyana Vayu Vikriti. The present observation was conducted with an objective to find out the efficacy of Ayurvedic management in Myasthenia Gravis. Here is a case of 60 years old Hindu male who was diagnosed as Myasthenia Gravis (MG) reported with complaint of slurred speech, low pitch of voice, difficulty to open the mouth and to swallow food and difficulty in elevating right eyebrow since 6 months was registered in OPD of Panchakarma, IPGT & RA, Jamnagar. Considering the signs and symp-toms patient was treated on the line of Aavrita Vata Chikitsa, Sthanika Abhyanga with Bala Taila, Nasya with Anu Taila, Jihwa Pratisarana with Vacha Churna and Ghritapana before meal with Go Ghrita was administered. Treatment shows significant improvement in the symptoms without any side effects.
