Transcriptome‐wide RNA m6A methylation profiles in an endemic osteoarthropathy, Kashin‐Beck disease [PDF]
Abstract Kashin‐Beck disease (KBD) is a chronic degenerative, disabling disease of the bones and joints and its exact aetiology and pathogenesis remain uncertain. This study is to investigate the role of m6A modification in the pathogenesis of KBD. Combined analysis of m6A MeRIP‐Seq and RNA‐Seq were used to analyse human peripheral blood samples from ...

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Depression in Patients With Endemic Osteoarthritis Kashin–Beck Disease [PDF]
Background: Kashin–Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteoarthropathy, which occurs in children aged 3–12, with similarity to osteoarthritis (OA). Previous studies have shown significant depression symptoms in OA patients, yet no comparable research has been conducted in KBD patients. Methods: We conducted a field investigation in KBD areas in Northwest
