Non‐Functional Paraganglioma of the Urinary Bladder: A Rare Cause of Bladder Tumor
ABSTRACT Introduction Paragangliomas of the urinary bladder (PUBs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors, representing less than 0.06% of all bladder neoplasms. While most are functional and associated with catecholamine excess, approximately 15% are non‐functional, often presenting asymptomatically and discovered incidentally.

ABSTRACT Purpose Infants with cancer are rare and face unique challenges. Our study aims to describe the incidence of infantile cancers in Canada and to compare treatment‐related mortality (TRM) and their outcomes with those of older children. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Cancer in Young People in Canada database ...

Abstract Background Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are aggressive soft tissue sarcomas with a 5‐year survival rate of approximately 50%, secondary to their metastatic potential and resistance to therapy. MPNSTs can arise sporadically, as a late toxicity from therapeutic radiotherapy, or in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1).

Assessing Executive Functions in Children With Developmental Dyslexia: A Comprehensive Approach
ABSTRACT Developmental dyslexia (DD) is frequently associated with executive function (EF) deficits, particularly in inhibition, working memory and cognitive flexibility. This study assessed EF in 40 children with DD, aged 7–16, using both performance‐based tests and rating measures, and examined the role of co‐occurring attention deficit hyperactivity

Dynamic causal modelling of working memory fMRI in individuals with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) revealed altered frontoparietal connectivity. NF1 participants showed increased endogenous self‐connectivity in left dlPFC and IPG. During working memory, NF1 participants showed increased self‐connectivity in left vlPFC but decreased self‐connectivity in

In children potentially fulfilling the criteria for developmental coordination disorder (DCD), phenotypical assessment does not sufficiently predict the diagnostic outcome (i.e. DCD or an alternative diagnosis). Due to the lack of distinguishing clinical and diagnostic features and the high prevalence of genetic diagnoses in these patients, additional ...

Merlin Phosphorylation by p21-activated Kinase 2 and Effects of Phosphorylation on Merlin Localization [PDF]
The Nf2 tumor suppressor gene product merlin is related to the membrane-cytoskeleton linker proteins of the band 4.1 superfamily, including ezrin, radixin, and moesin (ERMs). Merlin is regulated by phosphorylation in a Rac/cdc42-dependent fashion.
