Opportunities and Challenges of Population Pharmacogenomics
ABSTRACT Pharmacological responses can vary significantly among patients from different ethnogeographic backgrounds. This variability can, at least in part, be attributed to population‐specific genetic patterns in genes involved in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, as well as in genes associated with drug‐induced toxicity ...

Decreased dentin tubules density and reduced thickness of peritubular dentin in hyperbilirubinemia-related green teeth [PDF]
It is stated anecdotally that patients with liver diseases in childhood who develop green teeth have increased risk for rampant caries, which may be secondary to changes in dental structure.

Postprandial Hyperglycaemia Screening and Pregnancy Outcomes‐Lessons From COVID ‐19
ABSTRACT Background During COVID‐19, the diagnosis and treatment of GDM differed from conventional criteria. In Australia, during the alternative testing period, women with fasting glucose < 4.7 mmol/L were not diagnosed with GDM. Aim To describe the maternal and neonatal outcomes of pregnant women with fasting blood glucose < 4.7 mmol/L for whom the ...

Factors Affecting the Relationship Between Total and Unbound Bilirubin in Preterm and Term Infants
ABSTRACT Aim Newborn infants universally experience jaundice, most of which is physiologic, but in some high‐risk situations, it may lead to neurological dysfunction or death. Unbound bilirubin (Bf) may be the best predictor of bilirubin toxicity in this population. The goal of the study is to examine the relationship between total serum bilirubin (TSB)

Summary We describe a patient with sickle cell disease (SCD) and elevated antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) who developed multi‐organ failure resembling catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome. Autoimmune screening revealed several autoantibodies characteristic of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Notably, routinely housed and unmanipulated transgenic

Successful Pregnancy Outcome In Maternal Crigler Najjar Syndrome Type II. [PDF]
Estimated incidence of Crigler-Najjar syndrome(CNS) is 1 case per 1,000,000 births(1 million). The overall prevalence of CN syndrome is unknown, with only several hundred people reported to have this disease.

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and Rhesus disease of the newborn: incidence and impairment estimates for 2010 at regional and global levels. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Rhesus (Rh) disease and extreme hyperbilirubinemia (EHB) result in neonatal mortality and long-term neurodevelopmental impairment, yet there are no estimates of their burden.
