Development and Retrospective Application of Novel Outcome Measure: Sturge–Weber Syndrome Acute Crisis (SWAC) Index

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) symptoms frequently overlap in neurological acute crises (ACs) presenting with seizures, stroke‐like episodes (SLE), and headaches. Recent efforts to develop a prospective drug trial highlighted the need for a new outcome measure capable of quantifying these symptoms during an SWS AC.

The β integrin modulates serotonin sensitivity via NPxY motifs to regulate egg laying and mechanosensation behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Integrin is an αβ heterodimeric receptor to the extracellular matrix; its binding to the matrix recruits focal adhesions to two NPxY motifs, the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain. Studies found that replacing tyrosines (Y) with phenylalanines (F) in the motif of β1 integrin displayed little developmental or ...

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

Secretopathies emerge as a new class of neurocristopathies

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic population of cells that give rise to a wide range of structures, including craniofacial cartilage and bone, peripheral neurons and glia, as well as components of the cardiac outflow tract, among others.

Proteomic profiling of Elp1‐deficient trigeminal ganglia reveals disruption of neurotrophic and metabolic pathways in a familial dysautonomia mouse model

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Elp1, a subunit of the Elongator complex, is essential for tRNA modification and neuronal development. Mutations in ELP1 underlie familial dysautonomia (FD), a disorder marked by sensory and autonomic neuropathy. While loss of Elp1 disrupts trigeminal ganglion formation and survival, the downstream molecular consequences remain ...

Validation of a handheld smartphone markerless gait‐analysis tool using an estimated groundline in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A handheld smartphone‐based computer vision algorithm (RealHorse® [RH]) offers accessible alternatives for equine gait analysis but requires validation against a gold‐standard three‐dimensional multicamera optical motion capture system (Qualisys® [QS]).

Making care audible: Musical gifts and affective reciprocity in the clinic

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract In clinical settings, music therapy is frequently received as a gift—a voluntary offering that invites but does not demand participation. Drawing on ethnographic research with music therapists and patients in Canadian and American hospitals, this article examines how clinical care is co‐constituted through practices of giving, receiving, and ...

Exposure of Healthy Individuals to Pleasant Odours During Sleep: Effects on Odour Identification and Sleep Quality

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
Sleeping with pleasant odours was associated with improved cued odour identification, particularly in the sandalwood group. Subjective night‐time awakenings showed a descriptive decrease. EEG data did not reveal robust changes in sleep architecture, though exploratory analyses suggested potential benefits for individuals with poorer baseline sleep ...
