Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Modulate the Course of Peritoneal Inflammation Through Metabolic and Epigenetic Regulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MSC‐EVs alleviate peritoneal inflammation and fibrogenesis by disrupting the H3K18la‐CCL2 axis and crosstalk between mesothelial cells and Ly6c2⁺ macrophages. Model cartoons are constructed using the Biorender website (https://www.biorender.com/), and a usage license is obtained. Abstract Peritoneal dialysis (PD), as a renal replacement therapy, relies

Prognostic Utility of the Preoperative Cachexia Index in Patients Undergoing Emergency Laparotomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The preoperative cachexia index, incorporating muscle mass, nutritional status, and inflammation, predicts in‐hospital and one‐year mortality in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy. This simple index may aid in risk stratification and perioperative decision‐making in high‐risk surgical patients. ABSTRACT Aim Emergency laparotomy is associated with

A Confirmatory Case of Severe Spondylocostal Dysostosis Caused by Biallelic Loss‐of‐Function of DMRT2

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spondylocostal dysostosis (SCDO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal development of the axial skeleton, resulting in malformations of the vertebrae and ribs that often impair lung development and lead to significant respiratory morbidity.

An OGT Missense Variant With Impaired Enzyme Activity in a Child With Severe Developmental Delay and Hepatoblastoma

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT O‐GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and its antagonist O‐GlcNAcase (OGA) regulate protein O‐GlcNAcylation, a highly conserved post‐translational modification involved in metabolic sensing. Pathogenic variants in the OGT gene cause an X‐linked congenital disorder of glycosylation (OGT‐CDG) presenting developmental delay, hypotonia, intellectual ...

De Novo Heterozygous ZFX Frameshift Variant in a Female With an X‐Linked Neurodevelopmental Disorder

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germline ZFX variants are associated with an X‐linked neurodevelopmental disorder, with 14 males and 16 females reported to date. We describe a 20‐year‐old female with a heterozygous ZFX frameshift variant, p.(Met666Valfs*2), identified by genome sequencing, previously reported in an affected male.
