Abstract Exposure to microgravity is associated with stature increases, moderate‐to‐severe back/neck pain and elevated lumbar and cervical intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation risk post‐flight. Whilst lumbar pathophysiology has been investigated, little attention has been placed on the cervical spine.

Children With Short Stature Display Reduced ACE2 Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells
BackgroundThe cause of short stature remains often unknown. The renin-angiotensin system contributes to growth regulation. Several groups reported that angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)-knockout mice weighed less than controls.

ABSTRACT Objective Individual responses to recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy vary widely among children with idiopathic growth hormone deficiency (iGHD) and idiopathic short stature (ISS), making accurate prediction of treatment outcomes clinically important.

ABSTRACT Objective Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) diagnosis typically requires the performance of two sequential stimulation tests. Glucagon stimulation test (GST) and arginine stimulation test (AST) are widely used. This study aimed to determine the most suitable order of tests.

The identification of a patient carrying a novel homozygous p.(Gln206Ter) POC5 variant revealed a metabolic phenotype associated with POC5 deficiency. POC5 deficiency disrupts centriolar architecture and ciliary organization, leading to impaired proliferation, premature cellular senescence, and reduced insulin signaling.

ABSTRACT Classical homocystinuria (OMIM #236300), a rare inherited metabolic disorder caused by cystathionine beta‐synthase (CBS) deficiency, is characterized by markedly elevated homocysteine levels and associated multisystem complications. While the role of homocystinuria in venous thromboembolism is well recognized, there is limited evidence of ...
