ABSTRACT Background No consistent genetic etiology has been found for a group of six different conditions in humans with multiple malformations called “recurrent constellations of embryonic malformations” (RCEM). Recent studies indicate hypoxia/reoxygenation and generation Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) as an underlying mechanism for RCEM with the ...

Results of the implantation of bone-anchored hearing aids in patients with treacher-collins syndrome
Summary Introduction: Treacher-Collins syndrome is characterized by craniofacial malformations, narrowing of the external auditory canal (EAC), and, in 30% of cases, agenesis of the canal and ossicular chain defects. The use of hearing aids (

The Role of the U5 snRNP in Genetic Disorders and Cancer
Pre-mRNA splicing is performed by the spliceosome, a dynamic macromolecular complex consisting of five small uridine-rich ribonucleoprotein complexes (the U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 snRNPs) and numerous auxiliary splicing factors.

ABSTRACT Whole exome sequencing (WES) has been widely used in the pediatric setting to increase diagnostic yield, provide treatment options, and to estimate reoccurrence risks. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the utility of this technology in adults with neurodevelopmental disabilities.

Choanal atresia: A review of surgical outcomes in a tertiary medical center
Abstract Introduction Choanal atresia (CA) is a congenital narrowing or obliteration of the posterior nasal aperture. The condition is rare with an incidence of approximately 1 in 5000 to 9000 live births. Objective The aim of this work was to assess the results of treating this condition at the Otolaryngology Department in Oslo University Hospital ...

Perinatal Airway Management Mandibular Anomalies: A National Inpatient Cohort Analysis
Mandibular anomalies can present with airway obstruction at birth and if patency is not quickly established, neonatal hypoxic complications or death occur. Advanced mobilization or airway intervention during sustained placental support can mitigate risk; however, the techniques can increase risks to the pregnant person.
