Intestinal Atresia in Finland: Maternal Risk Factors, Prevalence, Associated Anomalies and Survival
ABSTRACT Aim We aimed to investigate prevalence, associated anomalies and survival of congenital intestinal atresia and to examine maternal risk factors for jejunoileal atresia (JIA). Methods All children born with, or pregnancies terminated because of, JIA or colonic atresia (CA) in Finland during 1987–2019 were identified from the Finnish Register of

The Current Status of Liver Transplantation. [PDF]
More than thirty patients have now undergone liver transplantation in Denver, some more than once, and survivals of up to two and a half years have been achieved. Through this and other experience it has been learned that graft viability is more critical

Moderate overexpression of wild‐type Met in hepatocytes (Alb‐R26Met mouse model) boosts a strong antioxidant response dependent on the glutathione system while impairing TGF‐β signaling in the liver. This leads to improved liver regeneration and protects against DDC‐induced injury, a model for cholestatic disease sharing features with primary ...

Genetic Diagnoses Among Congenital Anomaly Cases in Europe: Data From the EUROCAT Network
ABSTRACT Background Surveillance of congenital anomaly prevalence over time can identify new teratogens. Anomalies with a genetic cause are excluded from the monitoring. Objectives We examined temporal changes in the proportion of genetic diagnoses among cases with a congenital anomaly.

ABSTRACT Biallelic pathogenic variants in AKR1D1 cause Δ4‐3‐oxosteroid 5β‐reductase deficiency, disrupt bile acid synthesis, and result in Congenital Bile Acid Synthesis defect type 2 (CBAS2). CBAS2 presents in infancy with cholestasis, coagulopathy, and failure to thrive.
