Nomogram for estimating specific consanguinity risks
SUMMARY This paper describes a nomogram to estimate the chance of consanguinity for specific autosomal recessive diseases, taking into account the gene frequencies (q) of the recessive alleles and the coefficient of inbreeding (F) of the family of the ...

Bacteroides fragilis is associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) arterial calcification and can be activated by macrophage‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs). BF takes up EVs via receptor‐mediated endocytosis, and activation is induced by EV‐derived Mef2d, thereby inhibiting ArsR family transcriptional regulator transcription.

ABSTRACT Recent experiments by Nunes et al. have demonstrated that unprecedented control of chemical reactions is possible by narrowband infrared vibrational photo‐excitation at low temperatures in inert matrices. The generated higher energy level conformers may then undergo rotamerisation and tautomerisation reactions which provide extremely useful ...

The Bazaar as a Model for Knowledge Work
ABSTRACT This paper presents fieldwork that extends existing metaphors of knowledge work as a process shaped by hierarchical or market forces. A qualitative, ethnographic study of six knowledge‐intensive businesses in two countries identifies striking parallels with the Middle Eastern bazaar in contrast to Western impersonal markets and hierarchies. We

Background Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a rare and devastating tauopathy with limited global data. Given India's large population, genetic diversity, and clinical heterogeneity, large multicenter datasets are crucial to enrich global understanding of PSP. Objective To characterize the demographic, clinical, and phenotypic profiles of a large

Presynaptic Congenital Myasthenic Syndromes
ABSTRACT Presynaptic congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) encompass a large number of rare neurologic disorders caused by impaired release of acetylcholine (ACh) from motor nerve terminals. There are two main groups of presynaptic CMS: one in which the amount of ACh in synaptic vesicles (SV) is diminished and another in which the mechanism of synaptic
