Survivorship of Individuals With Double Heterozygosity for Achondroplasia and Type 2 Collagenopathy
ABSTRACT Historically, double heterozygosity, or a diagnosis of two separate, dominant genetic conditions, was often thought to be lethal in individuals with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias. In previously published studies of individuals with dual dysplasia diagnoses of achondroplasia and type 2 collagenopathy, infants died of respiratory ...

Spinal involvement in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome): presentation, diagnosis and management. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA), also known as Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome, is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulphate sulphatase (GALNS). MPS IVA is multisystemic but manifests

Computational Discovery of a Novel Yttrium Silicide as an Ambient Pressure Superconductor
We predict a tetragonal YSi₆ whose dumbbell‐silicon network strengthens electron‐phonon coupling, yielding a record 8.4 K critical temperature for binary yttrium silicides. The finding broadens silicide superconductivity design space and spotlights YSi₆ as a candidate material for quantum‐circuit and qubit technologies.

Objective JAK inhibition (JAKi) is effective in seronegative spondyloarthropathy (SpA) spectrum disorders, but Tyk2 inhibition failed in SpA spectrum ulcerative colitis, and tofacitinib showed minimal benefit in Crohn disease, which highlights the complex role for JAK/STAT signaling in different inflammatory processes.
