Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.Reducing radiation exposure to staff performing coronary angiography and intervention is an occupational health and safety priority for hospitals. We demonstrate that a larger lead acrylic shield, with lead rubber pleats on the lower edge will reduce radiation exposure to the cardiologist performing the procedure by approximately 40%. We recommend that

A Novel Slit Lamp‐Based System for 3D Ultrasound of the Eye
Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.Objectives This study aims to develop and evaluate a novel slit‐lamp‐based system to acquire 3‐dimensional (3D) ultrasound volumes using conventional ultrasound probes. Methods A slit‐lamp adapter was 3D printed and connected with a linear actuator and graphical user interface (GUI) system to control movement and create volumes of 2‐dimensional scans ...

Airway Involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle Syndrome: A Novel Clinical Manifestation
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.We report the first documented case of airway involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle syndrome (CDPX2), an X‐linked dominant form of chondrodysplasia punctata caused by pathogenic variants in EBP. A 2‐month‐old female with genetically confirmed CDPX2 developed severe subglottic stenosis and persistent respiratory distress requiring CPAP; cross ...

Loss‐of‐Function Variants in CPT1C: No Support for a Causal Role in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Movement Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Background Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by lower‐limb spasticity. Pathogenic variants in CPT1C have been implicated in HSP. Objective The objective of this study was to assess whether CPT1C loss‐of‐function (LOF) variants are causally associated with HSP.

Mydriasis as a Secondary Effect in Patients With HLA‐B27–Associated Uveitis
Medicine Advances, EarlyView.HLA‐B27‐associated acute anterior uveitis causes significant inflammation of the iris and anterior chamber, which disrupts normal parasympathetic control and results in increased sympathetic tone leading to pupil dilation (mydriasis). This finding can sometimes resemble herpetic uveitis, making a clinical context and careful evaluation crucial for ...
