The Evolving Landscape of CHD Genetics: A Contemporary Guide to Genetic Testing and Management

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, affecting an estimated 9.4/1000 infants globally. The genetics of CHD is complex, with most cases thought to have multifactorial aetiology, implicating both genetic and environmental factors.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL exacerbates orthotopic allograft transplantation vasculopathy via impairment of endothelial cell function

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthotopic allograft transplantation (OAT) is a significant approach to addressing organ failure. However, persistent immune responses to the allograft affect chronic rejection, which induces OAT vasculopathy (OATV) and organ failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis can infiltrate remote organs via the bloodstream, thereby intensifying the severity ...

Pigmented Birthmarks and Spinal Neurofibromas in KRAS Mosaicism—Not to Be Confused With NF1

open access: yesPediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a child presenting with pigmentary skin lesions and spinal neurofibromas who was diagnosed molecularly with KRAS mosaicism. We review the previous literature of two cases of congenital skin lesions and neurofibromas and spinal nerve root hypertrophy caused by KRAS variants and highlight this presentation as an important differential ...

Genetic Diagnoses Among Congenital Anomaly Cases in Europe: Data From the EUROCAT Network

open access: yesPaediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
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.

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...
