A Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

Managing Transition in Patients Treated with Growth Hormone

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
Growth hormone (GH) promotes growth in children, but is also essential for bone strength, body composition, metabolic factors, such as lipid profile, and maintenance of quality of life. The Merck KGaA (Germany) funded “360° GH in Europe” meeting, held in

The EXPLAIN Study: Exploring Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita in Adults in Norway — A Description of Demographic, Medical, and Neurological Findings

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) encompasses several hundred conditions with diverse genetic, pathophysiological, and clinical origins. The overarching EXPLAIN study explores underlying causes and implications of AMC and represents the largest clinical cohort of adults with AMC reported to date.

Prevalence of Hypothalamic–Pituitary Abnormalities in Pediatric Patients with Growth Hormone Deficiency

open access: yesSage Open Pediatrics
Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is a key differential diagnosis in children with proportionate short stature. While brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is recommended for all confirmed GHD cases to rule out hypothalamic-pituitary anomalies, its universal application remains debated We conducted a retrospective, single-center ...

Animal stroke models and outcome evaluation: A review

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Rodents are the preeminent stroke model species. Large animal models exist too, but are poorly standardized. Ischemic and hemorrhagic experimental models are available, with the intraluminal filament model being predominant. Outcomes are evaluated via quantifying subjects' sensorimotor impairment, cognitive memory faculties, degree of cellular ...

Cortical bone distribution in the human mandibular symphysis: Ontogenic and morphometric approaches in archeological context

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The human mandibular symphysis concentrates multiaxial loads during function and remodels throughout growth, but the precise mechanisms underlying cortical bone shape during growth remain relatively unexplored. Approaches based solely on thickness or external cortical contours provide only partial insights and do not capture the functional ...

Positive influence of long-term growth hormone therapy on circulating stem cells in pediatric patients with growth hormone deficiency

open access: yesScientific Reports
Very small embryonic/epiblast‐like stem cells (VSELs), present in circulating blood, are small, non-hematopoietic cells that express markers of pluripotent embryonic and primordial germ cells.

Pelvic breadth and juvenile locomotor energetics: Implications for the obstetrical dilemma hypothesis across human growth in past and present humans

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The obstetrical dilemma hypothesis (ODH) proposes an evolutionary trade‐off between obstetric requirements and locomotor performance. However, whether external pelvic breadth measures influence walking energetics during human growth remains poorly understood.
