Abstract: Introduction In hypokalemic paralysis, hypokalemia-induced inactivity of the muscle fibre Na+K+ ATPase pump is supposed to be responsible for motor inexcitability, resulting reduced or non-recordable CMAP amplitudes. Hence, nerve conduction studies (NCS) mainly includes reversible… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/2054358119871594
Abstract: Rationale: Hypokalemia is a common finding. Typically asymptomatic presentations of neuromuscular weakness emerge at levels below 2.5 mmol/L. Causes include gastrointestinal losses, renal losses, or intracellular shift, with gastrointestinal losses and diuretics accounting for the… read more here.

Abstract: Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) primarily involves exocrine glands, and renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is seen in one-third of the cases. RTA with hypokalemic paralysis as a presenting feature of pSS is described in few case… read more here.

DOI: 10.55519/jamc-04-10918
Abstract: Acute hypokalemic paralysis (AHP) is a life-threatening emergency. It is exceptionally unusual for hypothyroidism to present with AHP. This association can be either primary or secondary through distal renal tubular acidosis. We report two cases… read more here.
