Critical analysis on the present methods for brain volume measurements in multiple sclerosis
Objective The treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) has quickly evolved from a time when controlling clinical relapses would suffice, to the present day, when complete disease control is expected. Measurement of brain volume is still at an early stage to

A case report of Parry Romberg Syndrome initially presenting as periodontitis [PDF]
Parry Romberg Syndrome (PRS) is a rare disorder of progressive hemifacial atrophy, involving soft tissues, fat and occasionally bone. It can co-exist with presentations of Morphea.

The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Cerebellar atrophy with long-term phenytoin (PHT) use: Case report [PDF]
Cerebellar atrophy can be found with long-term phenytoin (PHT) use or acute phenytoin intoxication. PHT may cause cerebellar symptoms, such as nystagmus, diplopia, dysarthria and ataxia. Clinical manifestations may be persistent. We report a case of a 41-

We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Annual patterns of body, tissue, and organ mass variation in long-tailed ducks Clangula hyemalis
Temporal variation in resource availability, physiological demands, and other factors are associated with many phenotypic changes in organisms. For example, there are often predictable stages of atrophy and hypertrophy in animals’ organs to accommodate ...

Pathological correlates of potential autoimmune gastritis (AIG), defined by anti-parietal cell antibody (PCA) positivity in the absence of gastric atrophy, have never been described. We herein aimed to assess intraepithelial lymphocyte (IEL) infiltration

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Many species that run or leap across sparsely vegetated habitats, including horses and deer, evolved the severe reduction or complete loss of foot muscles as skeletal elements elongated and digits were lost, and yet the developmental mechanisms remain ...
