Two cases of neonatal hyperglycemia caused by a homozygous COQ9 stop‐gain variant
ABSTRACT Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a monogenic condition diagnosed <6 months of age with >40 genetic causes.

Abstract Developing non‐lethal techniques to estimate parasite infection is critical for studying disease ecology in wild animals. We tested the effectiveness of coelomic ultrasonographic examination and plasma enzyme markers to detect liver infection with bass tapeworms Proteocephalus ambloplitis (Leidy 1887) as well as the effectiveness of ultrasound

An anatomical investigation of alkaptonuria: Novel insights into ochronosis of cartilage and bone
Examination of an alkaptonuria body highlights the susceptibility of all cartilage types and associated perichondrium to ochronotic pigmentation and the heterogeneity of ochronotic pigment distribution both within and between tissues. In joints, calcified cartilage pigments before non‐calcified cartilage.
