Adverse Cardiovascular Risk Profile and Increased Diurnal Salivary Cortisol in Girls With Turner Syndrome: An Exploratory Study

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with Turner Syndrome (TS) and those exposed to high concentrations of glucocorticoids have a number of characteristics in common, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Pediatric TS patients underwent studies of salivary cortisol (SC) and cortisone (SCn), body composition, continuous glucose monitoring, vascular ...

Uniform 3D meshes to establish normative facial averages of healthy infants during the first year of life.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Three-dimensional (3D) surface imaging systems are replacing direct anthropometry as the preferred method for capturing facial soft-tissues. Aims of this study were: (1) to develop normative average 3D faces of healthy infants aged 3, 6, 9, and 12 months

Comparative analysis of short‐term and long‐term LL‐37‐induced rosacea‐like mouse models: Histopathological features and inflammatory immune responses

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The aim of this study was to improve the long‐term LL‐37 mouse model and compare the disease manifestations and pathophysiology of short‐term and long‐term LL‐37‐induced rosacea‐like models. The results show that the long‐term LL‐37 induced mouse model provides a practical animal model for further study of the pathological mechanism of severe rosacea ...

Effectiveness of endoscopic septoplasty in different types of nasal septal deformities: our experience with NOSE evaluation

Acta otorhinolaryngologica italica, 2018
SUMMARY Septal deviations are the most frequent cause of nasal obstruction, and represent a common complaint in rhinologic practice. Since the first description of Lanza et al. in 1991, the use of the endoscope for the correction of septal deformities is

Limb lengthening and deformity correction of congenital and acquired deformities in children using the Taylor Spatial Frame

Acta Orthopaedica, 2017
Background and purpose — Hexapod ring fixators such as the Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) have shown good outcomes. However, there have only been a few studies comparing the use of TSF with various etiologies of the deformity.

Impact of slug length in gas–liquid two‐phase flow on the structural stress characteristics of horizontal rigid pipelines

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Data collection and processing of slug length in two‐phase flow‐induced stress analysis. Abstract The intermittent passage of liquid slugs and gas pockets in slug flow generates substantial cyclic stress damage to piping systems and their supports. This issue poses significant challenges to the various industries in which this flow pattern is present ...

Absorbable Plate as a Perpendicular Strut for Acute Saddle Nose Deformities

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2012
Background Nasal pyramid fractures accompanied by saddle nose deformities are not easily corrected by closed reduction. We used an absorbable plate as a perpendicular strut to support the collapsed "keystone area" and obtained good results.

A head start: The relationship of placental factors to craniofacial and brain development

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, the importance of placental function for fetal neurodevelopment has become increasingly studied. This field, known as neuroplacentology, has greatly expanded possible etiologies of neurodevelopmental disorders by exploring the influence of placental function on brain development.
