Accelerated fetal growth in early pregnancy and risk of severe large‐for‐gestational‐age and macrosomic infant: a cohort study in a low‐risk population [PDF]
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2017 AbstractIntroductionOur objective was to examine the association between fetal growth in early pregnancy and risk of severe large‐for‐gestational‐age (LGA) and macrosomia at birth in a low‐risk population.Material and methodsCohort study that included 68 771 women with non‐anomalous singleton pregnancies, without history of diabetes or hypertension ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carpenter syndrome type 2 (CRPT2) is a rare autosomal recessive disease mainly characterized by craniosynostosis and polysyndactyly. CRPT2 is the rarer subtype of Carpenter syndrome (CRPTS) and is caused by biallelic variants in the multiple epidermal growth factor‐like domains 8 gene (MEGF8).

β-Cell failure in type 2 diabetes: a case of asking too much of too few? [PDF]
, 2013 The islet in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is characterized by a deficit in β-cells, increased β-cell apoptosis, and extracellular amyloid deposits derived from islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP). In the absence of longitudinal studies, it is unknown if the low β-

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.We identified 45% HFD as the optimal formulation to establish a juvenile rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty. It elicits robust phenotypic (early vaginal opening, obesity), histological (advanced ovarian development), and endocrine (elevated HPG axis hormones) alterations, with leptin‐mediated GnRH secretion as a core mechanistic driver ...

Equine models in translational medicine: A comparative approach to human health
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.This diagram summarizes and contrasts rodent and equine models, outlining their strengths, limitations, and applications. Horses offer naturally occurring diseases, genetic and physiological similarities to humans, and suitability for longitudinal and clinical‐scale studies.
