Myopathy associated with anti-signal recognition peptide antibodies: clinical heterogeneity contrasts with stereotyped histopathology.
Dimitri D, Andre C, Roucoules J, Hosseini H, Humbel RL, Authier FJ.
Muscle Nerve. 2007;35(3):389-95.
We report three patients with anti-signal recognition particle antibodies who had different presenting clinical pictures, mimicking acute polymyositis, limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, and acute rhabdomyolysis.

Muscle disease associated with renal failure.
Carleton H, Pitts W, Davidson W, Roth P.
