Whole genome sequencing in adults with clinical hallmarks of hypophosphatasia negative for ALPL variants [PDF]
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare disease caused by deficient activity of tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (ALP), encoded by the ALPL gene. The primary objective was to explore novel ALPL variants by whole genome sequencing (WGS) in patients with ...

Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is an inherited metabolic disease caused by loss-of-function mutations in the tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) gene. Reduced activity of TNAP leads to the accumulation of its substrates, mainly inorganic pyrophosphate and pyridoxal-5′-phosphate, metabolic aberrations that largely explain the musculoskeletal and ...

Impact of Restricted Phosphorus, Calcium-adjusted Diet on Musculoskeletal and Mental Health in Hypophosphatasia [PDF]
Context Impairments in musculoskeletal and mental health are common in adults with Hypophosphatasia (HPP). Restricted phosphorus intake has been suggested to positively affect symptoms in HPP, but there is a lack of interventional evidence.

Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...
