مستخلص: Background: Late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) patients may still need ventilation support at some point of their disease course, despite regular recombinant human alglucosidase alfa treatment. This suggest that other pathophysiological mechanisms than muscle fibre lesion can contribute to the respiratory failure process. We investigate through neurophysiology whether spinal phrenic motor neuron dysfunction could contribute to diaphragm weakness in LOPD patients.
Material and Methods: A group of symptomatic LOPD patients were prospectively studied in our centre from January 2022 to April 2023. We collected both demographic and clinical data, as well as neurophysiological parameters. Phrenic nerve conduction studies and needle EMG sampling of the diaphragm were perfomed.
Results: Eight treated LOPD patients (3 males, 37.5%) were investigated. Three patients (37.5%) with no respiratory involvement had normal phrenic nerve motor responses [median phrenic compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude of 0.49 mV; 1st-3rd interquartile range (IQR), 0.48-0.65]. Those with respiratory failure (under nocturnal non-invasive ventilation) had abnormal phrenic nerve motor responses (median phrenic CMAP amplitude of 0 mV; 1st-3rd IQR, 0-0.15), and were then investigated with EMG. Diaphragm needle EMG revealed both myopathic and neurogenic changes in 3 (60%) and myopathic potentials in 1 patient. In the last one, no motor unit potentials could be recruited.
Conclusions: Our study provide new insights regarding respiratory mechanisms in LOPD, suggesting a contribution of spinal phrenic motor neuron dysfunction for diaphragm weakness. If confirmed in further studies, our results recommend the need of new drugs crossing the blood-brain barrier.
