C9orf72 repeat expansions cause neurodegeneration in Drosophila through arginine-rich proteins [PDF]

, 2014
An expanded GGGGCC repeat in C9orf72 is the most common genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. A fundamental question is whether toxicity is driven by the repeat RNA itself and/or by dipeptide repeat proteins ...

Post protocol residual thickness as a negative predictor for pharmacological treatment in early pregnancy loss

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To determine the rate of pharmacological treatment failure in early pregnancy loss, assess post‐treatment residua thickness as a predictor of retained products of conception (RPOC), identify a clinically relevant cutoff, and evaluate additional clinical and sonographic predictors. Methods This retrospective cohort study was conducted
