The Dynamics of Neurofilament Light Chain in Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Objective Newborn screening (NBS) for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) facilitates early diagnosis and treatment for affected individuals. However, fluid biomarkers that provide early insights into disease activity and outcomes in a neonatal cohort and those unable to access (due to reimbursement criteria) or deferring immediate treatment are lacking ...

Objective Pathogenic variants in GNAO1 cause a spectrum of epilepsy, movement disorders, and developmental impairment. Clinical heterogeneity complicates prognosis and therapeutic development. We present the first longitudinal natural history study of GNAO1‐related disorders (GNAO1‐RD) to delineate phenotypic trajectories. Methods Sixty‐six individuals

Twin pregnancies and the limits of the energetics of gestation and growth hypothesis
Abstract The “Energetics of Gestation and Growth” (EGG) hypothesis proposes that human birth timing and the associated secondary altriciality of human newborns is determined by limits in maternal metabolic capacity. According to this model, labor is triggered when the increasing fetal energy requirements exceed the expectant mother's maximum sustained ...
