Causal analysis of trade loss from pathogens: A global study of foot and mouth disease impacts on meat exports

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

Infantile‐Onset Ascending Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia due to a Homozygous ALS2 Exons 24–25 Deletion: Expanding the Genotypic Spectrum

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe a novel homozygous intragenic deletion in the ALS2 gene in an 8‐year‐old boy with Infantile‐onset Ascending Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (IAHSP) and oculomotor apraxia, thereby contributing to the expanding genetic landscape of ALS2‐related disorders.

The Voice of Cantú: Lower Voice Pitch Is a New Phenotypic Feature of Cantú Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cantú syndrome (CS) is a rare genetic condition caused by pathogenic variants in either ABCC9 or KCNJ8, leading to gain‐of‐function of KATP‐channels. The main clinical features are hypertrichosis and cardiovascular abnormalities. This study investigates the voice characteristics in individuals with CS, an aspect that has received little ...
