Distinct Effects of Complement C4A and C4B Copy Numbers in Systemic Sclerosis Serological and Clinical Subtypes

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Complement component 4 (C4), encoded by C4A and C4B within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6, regulates the immune response and clears immune complexes. The variable copy number (CN) of C4 genes and retroviral human endogenous retrovirus K (HERV‐K) element influence its function.

Rare variant contribution to the heritability of coronary artery disease

open access: yesNature Communications
Whole genome sequences (WGS) enable discovery of rare variants which may contribute to missing heritability of coronary artery disease (CAD). To measure their contribution, we apply the GREML-LDMS-I approach to WGS of 4949 cases and 17,494 controls of ...

Multimodal Integration of Protein Interactomes With Genomic and Molecular Data Discovers Distinct Rheumatoid Arthritis Endotypes

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease characterized by clinical and molecular heterogeneity, notably in the presence of anti–cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies. Patients with CCP+ RA exhibit more severe disease progression and distinct treatment responses compared to patients with CCP− RA.

Does the Extreme Male Brain Hypothesis of Autism Apply More to Females Than Males? A Systematic and Meta‐Analytic Approach

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extreme male brain (EMB) hypothesis posits that autism risk is mediated by high systemizing and low empathizing. This hypothesis has accrued extensive support, but the degree to which it applies in females compared to males, and the relative extent to which autism is associated with empathizing compared to systemizing, is unclear ...

How far behind in number are socioeconomically disadvantaged pupils when they start school in England?

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper examines the gap in number skills between socioeconomically disadvantaged and non‐disadvantaged children in the first year of compulsory schooling in England. Past research mostly relies on statutory assessment data collected towards the end of the first year of school and does not show the attainment gap associated with ...

The myth of the metabolic baseline: sleep–wake cycles undermine a foundational assumption in organismal biology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Basal and standard metabolic rate (BMR and SMR) are cornerstones of physiological ecology and are assumed to be relatively fixed intrinsic properties of organisms that represent the minimum energy required to sustain life. However, this assumption is conceptually flawed. Many core maintenance processes underlying SMR are temporally partitioned
