We present a 4-year-old girl with persistent anterior fontanelle and narrow sloping shoulders. The X-ray imaging revealed widely open anterior fontanelle, supernumerary teeth, and absence of clavicles. Therefore, the diagnosis was cleidocranial dysplasia, which is a rare autosomal dominant skeletal disease, caused by the mutation in the gene on 6p21 ...

Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (OMIM 242900) is an uncommon autosomal-recessive multisystem disease caused by mutations in SMARCAL1 (swi/snf-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a-like 1), a gene encoding a ...

Case of Monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia in the hand [PDF]
A case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia in the proximal phalanx of an otherwise healthy, twenty-five year old is discussed. Fibrous dysplasia in the hand is rarely seen. Our patient presented with a swelling in his proximal phalanx.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Craniometaphyseal and craniodiaphyseal dysplasia, head and neck manifestations and management [PDF]
Craniometaphyseal and craniodiaphyseal dysplasia are rare genetic disorders of bone due to modelling errors of long bones and skull bones. These syndromes present with multiple ENT symptomatology from an early age.

In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Ectodermal dysplasias are a heterogeneous group of rare inherited disorders. Molecular findings and clarification of cell signaling processes and ectodermal-mesenchyme interaction enabled the development of a clinical-functional model, which in turn helps to explain clinical signs, with variability in severity, associated non-ectodermal abnormalities ...

Elastic scattering spectroscopy accurately detects high grade dysplasia and cancer in Barrett's oesophagus [PDF]
Background and aims: Endoscopic surveillance of Barrett’s oesophagus currently relies on multiple random biopsies. This approach is time consuming, has a poor diagnostic yield, and significant interobserver variability. Elastic scattering spectroscopy is
