Patterns of parenteral nutrition use in the inpatient setting: A retrospective cohort study
Abstract Background Parenteral nutrition (PN) supports patients unable to absorb sufficient nutrients from their gastrointestinal tracts. Yet, information about the patterns and extent of PN's in‐hospital use is lacking. Data on this topic should provide comparison points for nutrition support teams and hospital administrators examining PN use in their

Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a rare children neurodegenerative disease caused due to a point mutation in the IKBKAP gene that results in decreased IKK complex-associated protein (IKAP) protein production.

Effects of IKAP/hELP1 deficiency on gene expression in differentiating neuroblastoma cells: implications for familial dysautonomia. [PDF]
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a developmental neuropathy of the sensory and autonomous nervous systems. The IKBKAP gene, encoding the IKAP/hELP1 subunit of the RNA polymerase II Elongator complex is mutated in FD patients, leading to a tissue-specific ...

Surprise and the singular plural
Abstract Bodymind diversity, disability scholars argue, contributes to community and to ideals of human flourishing. Phenomenologists like Nancy and Arendt, meanwhile, foreground our human pluralism. But what does it mean to inhabit (and invent) a plural “we” across significant bodily difference? And why is the experience of surprise important to it? A

Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a rare neurodegenerative disease caused by a mutation in intron 20 of the IKBKAP gene (c.2204+6T>C), leading to tissue-specific skipping of exon 20 and a decrease in the synthesis of the encoded protein IKAP (also known as ...

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

This systematic review identifies and categorizes the spectrum of non‐epileptic paroxysmal events in Rett syndrome. Respiratory disturbances, behavioural episodes, and motor events were the most commonly reported. Improving clinician awareness and diagnostic clarity is key to avoiding unnecessary treatment and enhancing quality of life for individuals ...

Cardiac sympathetic denervation in 6-OHDA-treated nonhuman primates. [PDF]
Cardiac sympathetic neurodegeneration and dysautonomia affect patients with sporadic and familial Parkinson's disease (PD) and are currently proposed as prodromal signs of PD. We have recently developed a nonhuman primate model of cardiac dysautonomia by

Von Economo neurons (VENs) and fork cells are principally located in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and the frontoinsular cortex (FI). Both of these regions integrate inputs from the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and are involved in decision-making
