Longitudinal Phenotypic Trajectories in GNAO1‐Related Disorders: Defining Disease Progression and Clinical Profiles

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Pathogenic variants in GNAO1 cause a spectrum of epilepsy, movement disorders, and developmental impairment. Clinical heterogeneity complicates prognosis and therapeutic development. We present the first longitudinal natural history study of GNAO1‐related disorders (GNAO1‐RD) to delineate phenotypic trajectories. Methods Sixty‐six individuals

Current evidence for a modulation of low back pain by human genetic variants

, 2009
The manifestation of chronic back pain depends on structural, psychosocial, occupational and genetic influences. Heritability estimates for back pain range from 30% to 45%. Genetic influences are caused by genes affecting intervertebral disc degeneration

Perioperative Intravenous Dexamethasone Improves Pain and Functional Outcomes After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the effect of perioperative dexamethasone on patient‐reported pain, functional outcomes, and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) achievement following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods Patients who underwent rotator cuff repair between 2013 and 2023 were identified and divided into groups.

Asymmetric syntheses of (+)- and (–)-collybolide enable reevaluation of kappa-opioid receptor agonism

, 2022
The fungal metabolite collybolide attracted attention as a non-nitrogenous, potent and biased agonist of the kappa-opioid receptor (KOR). Here we report a 10-step asymmetric synthesis of this complex sesquiterpene that enables facile access to either ...
