Higher complement C4 gene copy number constitutes a shared genetic risk factor for giant cell arteritis and IgA vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis: A shared phenotype across brain‐expressed sodium channelopathies

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis (NDEEMA) represents the most severe end of the gain‐of‐function (GOF) SCN1A disorder spectrum. Sporadic cases of congenital arthrogryposis have also been reported in individuals with SCN2A‐, SCN3A‐, and SCN8A‐related developmental and ...

Experimental Investigation of Sensitivity for Coal and Gas Outburst Risk Prediction Indexes in Raw and Tectonic Composite Coal Seams

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A comparative study was conducted on gas desorption laws of raw and tectonic coals. The sensitivity of regional and local outburst prediction indexes was compared. Gas content is more sensitive than gas pressure for composite coal seams. K1 can more accurately predict the outburst danger than Δh2 $\Delta {h}_{2}$ in composite coal seams.
