Psoas Muscle Volume as a Predictor of Postoperative Complications in Patients Undergoing Emergency Surgery for Strangulated Small Bowel Obstruction: A Retrospective Single‐Center Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study identified low preoperative psoas muscle volume, measured by computed tomography, as an independent predictor of postoperative complications in patients undergoing emergency surgery for strangulated small bowel obstruction. Low psoas muscle volume, particularly in older adults, was associated with cardiopulmonary and systemic ...

The Novel ACTC1 p.Gly50Ser Variant Is Associated With Arrhythmia and Secondary Features of HCM Without Hypertrophy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The key diagnostic criterion for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the presence of otherwise unexplained hypertrophy. Current definitions of HCM rely on specific thresholds to establish a diagnosis, while guideline directed risk stratification algorithms take its magnitude into consideration.

Expanding the Phenotype of TUFM‐Related Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency 4

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 4 (COXPD4) is a rare mitochondrial condition caused by biallelic deleterious variants in the nuclear‐encoded gene TUFM. To date, most individuals with COXPD4 have presented with encephalopathy, hypotonia, and abnormal brain imaging. Many of the reported individuals died in infancy. We aim to expand

Novel MYL1 Intron Variant With Expanded Phenotype

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital myopathy‐14 (CMYO14) is an ultrarare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic variants in MYL1, with only four patients reported to date. We describe what is likely the fifth reported patient, a neonate with severe hypotonia, respiratory insufficiency, and skeletal anomalies showing distinct histological changes of skeletal ...

Cytosolic Phosphoenoylpyruvate Carboxykinase Deficiency: Clinical, Biochemical, and Genetic Features of Five Non‐Finnish Patients

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cytosolic phosphoenoylpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK‐C) is an essential, rate‐limiting enzyme in the gluconeogenesis pathway. PEPCK‐C deficiency presents with hypoglycaemia, hyperlactataemia and hepatopathy, and was first reported in association with bi‐allelic PCK1 variants in 2014.

Arginine metabolism in uricotelic species = Metabolismo da arginina em espécies uricotélicas

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2010
Due to the lack of a complete urea cycle, uricotelic species, such as broilers, are not able to synthesize de novo arginine (Arg), thus depending exclusively on dietary Arg.
