Surrogate Endpoints in Regulatory Decision‐Making
ABSTRACT To support approval, FDA requires substantial evidence of effectiveness that demonstrates a drug improves meaningful clinical outcomes as measured by how a patient feels, functions, or survives. Effectiveness is measured directly (e.g., by patient‐reported outcome or other clinical outcome assessment) or indirectly (i.e., by use of a surrogate

ABSTRACT Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by progressive heterotopic ossification (HO) and congenital malformation of the great toes. This case describes a 5‐year‐old Caucasian girl who initially presented with painless neck and back swelling as well as severe limitation of movement in the neck and ...

A Retinoid Antagonist Attenuates Bone Growth Inhibition Caused by Growth Plate Injury in Mice
ABSTRACT Growth plate injury, which may trigger growth plate fusion or arrest, is a common occurrence in pediatric orthopaedics that can lead to angulation of the limb and limb length discrepancy. Growth plate injuries are currently treated palliatively, with surgical intervention when severe limb length discrepancy or angulation is found during follow‐

ABSTRACT Myositis ossificans (MO) is a benign soft tissue lesion, characterized by ectopic ossification due to inappropriate fibroblast differentiation, most commonly affecting skeletal muscles. It often occurs in young adults after muscle trauma, predominantly in male patients and very rarely in children. We describe the case of a previously healthy 3‐

Post‐COVID‐19 Exacerbation of a Stable Fibrous Dysplasia: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare, benign fibro‐osseous lesion characterized by replacement of normal bone with extensive fibrous stroma due to abnormalities in osteoblast differentiation. After puberty and during adulthood, FD lesions usually become quiescent. However, some cases show signs of regrowth and reactivation.

ABSTRACT Introduction Childhood interstitial and diffuse lung diseases (chILD) comprise a diverse group of rare disorders. Identifying the underlying cause is crucial for treatment, prognosis, and estimating recurrence risk. The objective of this study was to assess the utilization of genetic testing for subjects enrolled in the United States National ...

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, a rare genetic disorder caused by ACVR1 mutations, leads to soft tissue ossification. Recent advancements, including food and drug administration‐approved palovarotene, show promise despite safety concerns. Therapies like tofacitinib and imatinib demonstrate potential, but larger, controlled trials are essential ...

ECSIT‐X4 is the predominant cardiac isoform of ECSIT, encoded by the Ecsit‐X4 transcript variant in adult cardiomyocytes. The splicing junction of exon 9 generates the mouse Ecsit‐X4 isoform, resulting in a recognizable C‐terminal sequence. It is shown that ECSIT‐X4 interacts with STAT3, enhancing the activity of complex I, thereby promoting ...
