Improving Medication Safety Following Neonatal Discharge: A Feasibility Study of a Parent Medication Education Intervention in Ireland

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Neonates discharged home on medications remain at risk of medication errors. The PADDINGToN programme previously developed parent co‐designed resources to support safer medication administration following discharge. The aim of this study, PADDINGToN‐2, is to evaluate the feasibility of recruiting and retaining parents in a study assessing ...

Comprehensive Assessment of the KDM2B‐Associated Neurodevelopmental Disorder and the 12q24.31 Microdeletion Syndrome

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We set out to characterize genotype–phenotype correlations in the recently delineated KDM2B‐associated neurodevelopmental disorder. We observe a highly penetrant CxxC domain‐related phenotype with distinct facial features supported by GestaltMatcher. In contrast, our findings point to variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of loss‐of‐function ...

From Multiple Congenital Anomalies to Pituitary Gland Malformation: Wide Spectrum of Clinical Features in a Family With FOXA2 Variant

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1452-1457, June 2026.
ABSTRACT FOXA2 (hepatocyte nuclear factor‐3β, HNF‐3β) encodes a transcriptional activator involved in early embryogenesis, particularly in the patterning and differentiation of midline structures such as the neural tube, foregut, and pituitary gland. Its role in human pathogenesis was first suspected when patients with deletion of chromosome 20p11.2 ...

Clinical Report and Genetic Analysis of a Patient With Congenital Hyperinsulinism Hyperammonemia Caused by a Novel Missense Mutation in the Structural Domain of the Isoform of the GLUD1 Gene

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
This patient was admitted to the hospital 43 h after birth with convulsions and hypoglycemia, presenting as recurrent refractory hypoglycemia that was difficult to control with conventional medication. Whole exome sequencing detected the GLUD1 (NM_005271.3:c.1495G>T, p.Gly499Cys) variant, which was a de novo variant in the patient and was not detected ...

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 6, Page 539-555, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 10, Page 2197-2218, May 2026.
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Transjugular Leadless Pacemaker Implantation in an Adolescent With Central Hypoventilation Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 606-609, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Permanent pacing in pediatric patients is complicated by small body size, vascular access limitations, and the need for durable long‐term management. Leadless pacemakers offer an emerging alternative that minimizes infection and lead‐related complications, yet vascular access remains a key challenge in young patients.

Contrasting Effects of Chronic Glucokinase Activation and Inhibition on Pancreatic Beta‐Cell Function

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
In the non‐diabetic beta‐cell (top left) activation of glucokinase (bottom left) leads to inhibition of mitochondrial metabolism and thereby impairs insulin secretion. The effect is similar to that of chronic hyperglycaemia as seen in the diabetic beta‐cell (top right).

From the cytosol to the inner membrane: biogenesis of the mitochondrial carrier family

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Mitochondrial carrier proteins are essential for cellular physiology as they are active in a wide range of metabolic pathways including production of cellular energy, amino acid synthesis, redox balance and ion homeostasis. The double membrane of mitochondria provides a tightly gated environment through which carrier proteins facilitate the ...
