Transmission factors and exposure to infections at work and invasive pneumococcal disease

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 65-74, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Working in close contacts with coworkers or the general public may be associated with transmission of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). We investigated whether crowded workplaces, sharing surfaces, and exposure to infections were factors associated with IPD.

Two SOX11 variants cause Coffin–Siris syndrome with a new feature of sensorineural hearing loss

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 1, Page 183-189, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Coffin‐Siris syndrome (CSS, OMIM#135900) is a rare congenital disorder associated with neurodevelopmental and dysmorphic features. The primary cause of CSS is pathogenic variants in any of 9 BAF chromatin‐remodeling complex encoding genes or the genes SOX11 and PHF6. Herein, we performed whole‐exome sequencing (WES) and a series of analyses of

Clinical overview on RASopathies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, Volume 190, Issue 4, Page 414-424, December 2022., 2022
Abstract RASopathies comprise a group of clinically overlapping developmental disorders caused by genetic variations affecting components or modulators of the RAS‐MAPK signaling cascade, which lead to dysregulation of signal flow through this pathway.

Neuroimaging for differential diagnosis of transient neurological attacks

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Rapid yet comprehensive neuroimaging protocols are required for patients with suspected acute stroke. However, stroke mimics can account for approximately one in five clinically diagnosed acute ischemic strokes and the rate of thrombolyzed mimics can be as high as 17%.

Autosomal recessive hyper‐IgE syndrome due to DOCK8 deficiency: An adjunctive role for omalizumab

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Immunology and Allergy, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 222-226, December 2022., 2022
We report a rare case of AR‐HIES with DOCK8 deficiency in a young male that was successfully treated by infection management, skincare, diet elimination, and omalizumab. Abstract Autosomal recessive hyper‐IgE syndrome (AR‐HIES) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by high serum IgE levels, recurrent viral skin infections, severe ...

De novo putative loss‐of‐function variants in TAF4 are associated with a neuro‐developmental disorder

open access: yesHuman Mutation, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 1844-1851, December 2022., 2022
Abstract TATA‐binding protein associated factor 4 (TAF4) is a subunit of the Transcription Factor IID (TFIID) complex, a central player in transcription initiation. Other members of this multimeric complex have been implicated previously as monogenic disease genes in human developmental disorders.

Subjective Fatigue in Children With Unaided and Aided Unilateral Hearing Loss

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 133, Issue 1, Page 189-198, January 2023., 2023
Objectives Fatigue is frequently observed in children with chronic diseases and can affect the quality of life (QoL). However, research in children with unilateral hearing loss (UHL) is scarce. Subsequently, no studies investigated the effects of hearing aids on fatigue in children.

The importance of definitions in the measurement of long‐term health conditions in childhood. Variations in prevalence of long‐term health conditions in the UK using data from the Millennium Cohort Study, 2004–2015

open access: yesInternational Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research, Volume 31, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives To explore the impact of various measurements of long‐term health conditions (LTCs) on the resulting prevalence estimates using data from a nationally representative dataset. Methods Children and young people in the Millennium Cohort Study were followed at ages 3, 5, 7, 11, and 14 years (N = 15,631).

Structures and functions of cilia during vertebrate embryo development

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 89, Issue 12, Page 579-596, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Cilia are hair‐like structures that project from the surface of cells. In vertebrates, most cells have an immotile primary cilium that mediates cell signaling, and some specialized cells assemble one or multiple cilia that are motile and beat synchronously to move fluids in one direction.

Use of optical coherence tomography otoscopy to overcome cerumen and other view obstructions during ear examination and assessment

open access: yesTranslational Biophotonics, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
Childhood ear infections are highly prevalent and diagnosed with the otoscope. Frequently, however, this view is obstructed by cerumen, complicating clinician assessment and appropriate and effective management. An optical coherence tomography (OCT) otoscope capable of capturing both depth‐resolved OCT images and digital color surface images was used ...
