A Study of Spontaneous Self-Injurious Behavior and Neuroimaging in Rhesus Macaques

Research
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) demonstrates escalating prevalence among adolescents as a maladaptive behavior characterized by deliberate self-harm, yet its neurobiological underpinnings remain elusive.

Bridging the Loneliness Gap: Depression, Connectivity, and Isolation in Pediatric Oncology Patients and Their Peers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

An Accurate Model for Genetic Hitchhiking [PDF]

Genetics, 2008
AbstractWe suggest a simple deterministic approximation for the growth of the favored-allele frequency during a selective sweep. Using this approximation we introduce an accurate model for genetic hitchhiking. Only when Ns < 10 (N is the population size and s denotes the selection coefficient) are discrepancies between our approximation and ...

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

Forward and reverse genomic screens enhance the understanding of phenotypic variation in a large Chinese rhesus macaque cohort

Nature Communications
Combining genotype and phenotype data promises to greatly increase the value of macaque as biomedical models for human disease. Here we launch the Macaque Biobank project by deeply sequencing 919 captive Chinese rhesus macaques (CRM) while assessing 52 ...

Global knockdown of glutamate decarboxylase 67 elicits emotional abnormality in mice

Molecular Brain, 2021
Reduced expression of glutamate decarboxylase 67 (GAD67), encoded by the Gad1 gene, is a consistent finding in postmortem brains of patients with several psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder.
