Nocturnal Hypoxemia Burden Correlates With Vestibular Dysfunction in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a potential contributor to vestibular dysfunction, though specific correlating parameters remain unclear. This study aimed to determine whether hypoxemia severity indices correlate quantitatively with caloric slow‐phase eye velocity (SPV), a marker of vestibular function. Methods In a retrospective

NEMO‐NDAS: Case Report and Review of the Literature

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT NEMO‐deleted exon 5 autoinflammatory syndrome (NEMO‐NDAS) is the result of a gain‐of‐function IKBKG pathogenic variant leading to dysregulated NF‐κB signaling and systemic inflammation. We present a case of NEMO‐NDAS in a 2‐year‐old female presenting with recurrent fevers, subcutaneous nodules, lymphadenopathy, and splenomegaly.
