Successful treatment with tocainide of recessive generalized congenital myotonia.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Serum urate levels have been associated with risk for and progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). Urate-related compounds are therapeutic candidates in neuroprotective efforts to slow PD progression. A urate-elevating agent is currently under investigation as a potential disease-modifying strategy in people ...
