Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...

Meibomian Glands and Tear Film Findings in Type 2 Diabetic Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study
BackgroundThe characteristics of the meibomian gland and tear film in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with different glycemic control levels and diabetic durations remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to identify the association of dry eye and

ABSTRACT There is limited integrated evaluation of nitrogen (N) and irrigation management strategies for improving maize yield and productivity using crop models. The effects of N and irrigation on maize yield and productivity under centre pivot (CPI) and subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) using the CERES‐Maize model were investigated. N treatments were (

Abstract Background Intracerebral gene therapy is effective for amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency, but relationships between anatomical putaminal coverage, metabolic dynamics, and clinical recovery remain poorly understood. Objectives Assess safety, long‐term efficacy, and clinical–radiological correlations in a genetically diverse European ...

Cross‐Cohort Evidence Links KCNJ6 rs702859 to Impulsive–Compulsive Phenotypes in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Impulse control disorders (ICDs) and related compulsive behaviors (CBs) are frequent non‐motor complications of Parkinson's disease (PD) with a probable genetic contribution. Objective To investigate whether genetic variants involved in reward and punishment processing are associated with impulsive–compulsive phenotypes in PD ...
