Generalized arterial calcification of infancy in a neonate with acute kidney injury: A rare case report

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI) is a rare condition characterized by diffuse arterial calcification within the internal elastic lamina associated with intimal proliferation leading to stenosis of great and medium-sized vessels, which

Behavioral adjustments of endangered Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) living at the edge of an agricultural landscape in Morocco

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 85, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023
Relationships between anthropogenic disturbances and Barbary macaques' diets and activity budgets. Abstract Transition zones between natural and human‐altered spaces are eroding in most terrestrial ecosystems. The persistence of animals in shared landscapes depends in part on their behavioral flexibility, which may involve being able to exploit human ...

Twin‐twin transfusion syndrome recipient with arterial calcification and heterozygous variant in ABCC6: Evidence of a gene‐environment interaction?

Prenatal Diagnosis, Volume 43, Issue 8, Page 1092-1095, July 2023., 2023
Abstract We report a case of a twin‐twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) recipient who, after successful fetoscopic surgery, developed a large pericardial effusion and calcifications of the aorta and main pulmonary artery. The donor fetus never had cardiac strain and never developed cardiac calcifications. A heterozygous likely pathogenic variant in ABCC6 (

Generalized arterial calcification of infancy and pseudoxanthoma elasticum: two sides of the same coin

Frontiers in Genetics, 2012
Generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI) is associated with biallelic mutations in ENPP1 in the majority of cases, whereas mutations in ABCC6 are known to cause pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE).

Case Report: Coexistence of generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI) and maternal infections with cytomegalovirus and Toxoplasma gondii-unexpected fatal complication in a newborn

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
Generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI) is an extremely rare autosomal recessive condition characterized by the storage of calcium at the level of internal elastic membrane of arteries.

ENPP1 enzyme replacement therapy improves blood pressure and cardiovascular function in a mouse model of generalized arterial calcification of infancy

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2018
Generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI) is a rare, life-threatening disorder caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1), which normally hydrolyzes extracellular ATP ...

A Grey System Approach for Estimating the Hölderian Regularity with an Application to Algerian Well Log Data

Fractal and Fractional, 2021
The Hölderian regularity is an important mathematical feature of a signal, connected with the physical nature of the measured parameter. Many algorithms have been proposed in literature for estimating the local Hölder exponent value, but all of them lead
