Cardiomyocyte‐Specific Plakophilin‐2 Loss Is Sufficient to Induce Aging and Senescence of Nonmyocytes: Relevance to Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background Pathogenic variants in PKP2 are the most common cause of familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. This study tests whether plakophilin‐2 (PKP2) deficiency only in cardiomyocytes is sufficient to provoke premature aging and ...

RETINOPATHY OF PREMATURITY AND MATERNAL AGE [PDF]
To determine the risk factors, especially maternal risk factors, associated with the development of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in premature babies.A matched case-control study involving premature patients was undertaken retrospectively. The case group consisted of premature babies with the subsequent development of ROP.
