Growth Differentiation Factor 15 Elevation in the Central Nervous System Is Associated With Failure to Thrive in Alexander Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Alexander disease (AxD) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder caused by gain‐of‐function mutations in the gene for GFAP, which lead to protein aggregation and a primary astrocytopathy. Symptoms vary, but failure to thrive (FTT) and frequent emesis are common and cause significant morbidity. Here we investigate GDF15, a member of the

Contact angle of water on iron ore fines: Measurement and analysis [PDF]

Journal of Mining and Metallurgy. Section B: Metallurgy, 2015
The relative contact angle (θRCA) for seven iron ore fines was measured by using Washburn Osmotic Pressure method under laboratory conditions. By choosing cyclohexane as the reference that can perfectly wet iron ore particles, the relative ...

The equilibrium contact angle of ammonia-stainless steel interface

Results in Engineering, 2022
The knowledge of the wettability at the interface of different liquids and solid surfaces must be replenished in steps with material science. Wettability is a critical property in technologies where the interaction of fluid and solid substances is part ...

Scoliosis Surgery in a Patient With Advanced Friedreich's Ataxia—It Is Not Too Late

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Friedreich's ataxia is a multisystem disorder with scoliosis being the most common non‐neurological manifestation. While scoliosis surgery is typically performed in adolescent, ambulatory patients, few data exist on surgical outcomes in patients with advanced disease.

The Case of a 28‐Year‐Old Woman With Medically Refractory Focal Epilepsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present the case of a 28‐year‐old right‐handed woman with medically refractory focal epilepsy. Her seizure semiology and electroencephalography (EEG) indicated a seizure onset zone in the right central‐parietal area. However, both MRI and PET scans were unremarkable, showing no focal lesions or areas of altered metabolism.

Prevalence of Pincer Morphology in Early Adolescents From the General Population: A Population‐Based Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Pincer morphology can lead to femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and may be a modifiable risk factor for hip osteoarthritis (OA). Currently, no studies investigate the prevalence of pincer morphology in early adolescence, which is the period when this bony shape likely develops.

Adjustment and Measurement of Contact Angle with Electrowetting on a Quartz-Crystal Microbalance

Inventions, 2018
Electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) has been widely exploited as an actuating force to manipulate liquids by surface tension and modulation of the contact angle on a microscale.

Hip morphology‐based osteoarthritis risk prediction models: development and external validation using individual participant data from the World COACH Consortium

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives This study aims to develop hip morphology‐based radiographic hip osteoarthritis (RHOA) risk prediction models and investigates the added predictive value of hip morphology measurements and the generalizability to different populations. Methods We combined data from nine prospective cohort studies participating in the World COACH consortium ...
