Deep-learning models improve on community-level diagnosis for common congenital heart disease lesions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Prenatal diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), two serious congenital heart defects, improves outcomes and can in some cases facilitate in utero interventions. In practice, however, the fetal diagnosis rate for these lesions is only 30-50 percent in community settings. Improving fetal diagnosis of congenital

Management aspects of congenital adrenal hyperplasia during adolescence and transition to adult care

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 332-345, October 2024.
Abstract The adolescent period is characterised by fundamental hormonal changes, which affect sex steroid production, cortisol metabolism and insulin sensitivity. These physiological changes have a significant impact on patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).

Congenital hyperinsulinism: diagnostic and management challenges in a developing country – case report [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2017
Management of congenital hyperinsulinemia of infancy (CHI) is challenging. A 4-month-old female infant with persistent hypoglycemia and elevated insulin levels was diagnosed with CHI.

When rare meets common: Treatable genetic diseases are enriched in the general psychiatric population

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 194, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Mental illnesses are one of the biggest contributors to the global disease burden. Despite the increased recognition, diagnosis and ongoing research of mental health disorders, the etiology and underlying molecular mechanisms of these disorders are yet to be fully elucidated.

Topology-preserving augmentation for CNN-based segmentation of congenital heart defects from 3D paediatric CMR [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Patient-specific 3D printing of congenital heart anatomy demands an accurate segmentation of the thin tissue interfaces which characterise these diagnoses. Even when a label set has a high spatial overlap with the ground truth, inaccurate delineation of these interfaces can result in topological errors.

Toward improved inference for Krippendorff's Alpha agreement coefficient [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
In this article I recommend a better point estimator for Krippendorff's Alpha agreement coefficient, and develop a jackknife variance estimator that leads to much better interval estimation than does the customary bootstrap procedure or an alternative bootstrap procedure.

Hypoglycemia in CDG patients due to PMM2 mutations: Follow up on hyperinsulinemic patients

open access: yesJIMD Reports, 2020
Background Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2‐CDG) is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). Hypoglycemia has been reported in various CDG including PMM2‐CDG.

Monogenic diabetes in a Chinese population with young‐onset diabetes: A 17‐year prospective follow‐up study in Hong Kong

open access: yesDiabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 40, Issue 5, July 2024.
Abstract Aims Asians have a high prevalence of young‐onset diabetes, but the pattern of monogenic diabetes is unknown. We aimed to determine the prevalence of monogenic diabetes in Chinese patients with young‐onset diabetes and compare the clinical characteristics and outcome between patients with and without monogenic diabetes.

Automated Detection of Congenital Heart Disease in Fetal Ultrasound Screening [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Prenatal screening with ultrasound can lower neonatal mortality significantly for selected cardiac abnormalities. However, the need for human expertise, coupled with the high volume of screening cases, limits the practically achievable detection rates.

Visual interpretation, not SUV ratios, is the ideal method to interpret 18F-DOPA PET scans to aid in the cure of patients with focal congenital hyperinsulinism.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
IntroductionCongenital hyperinsulinism is characterized by abnormal regulation of insulin secretion from the pancreas causing profound hypoketotic hypoglycemia and is the leading cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infants and children.
