Distinct brain atrophy progression subtypes underlie phenoconversion in isolated REM sleep behaviour disorder [PDF]
BackgroundSynucleinopathies include a spectrum of disorders varying in features and severity, including idiopathic/isolated REM sleep behaviour disorder (iRBD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).

Dasatinib-induced nephrotic syndrome: a case of phenoconversion?
We present the case of a 33-year-old chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) female patient, in whom the occurrence of nephrotic syndrome, during the treatment with tyrosine kinase activity inhibitors (TKIs), was potentially influenced by transient phenoconversion.

Factors related to genetic testing in adults at risk for Huntington disease: the prospective Huntington at-risk observational study (PHAROS) [PDF]
Huntington disease (HD) is a late onset ultimately fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by a cytosine-adenine-guanine ( CAG) triplet repeat expansion in the Huntingtin gene which was discovered in 1993. The PHAROS study is a unique observational study

A retrotransposon storm marks clinical phenoconversion to late-onset Alzheimer’s disease
AbstractRecent reports have suggested that the reactivation of otherwise transcriptionally silent transposable elements (TEs) might induce brain degeneration, either by dysregulating the expression of genes and pathways implicated in cognitive decline and dementia or through the induction of immune-mediated neuroinflammation resulting in the ...

Clinical pharmacogenetics implementation consortium guideline (CPIC) for CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 genotypes and dosing of tricyclic antidepressants: 2016 update [PDF]
CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 polymorphisms affect the exposure, efficacy and safety of tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), with some drugs being affected by CYP2D6 only (e.g., nortriptyline and desipramine) and others by both polymorphic enzymes (e.g., amitriptyline,

Autonomic dysfunction and phenoconversion in idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder
REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a common finding among patients with synucleinopathies. We aimed to determine the degree of autonomic dysfunction in patients presenting with idiopathic RBD (iRBD), and the predictive value of autonomic dysfunction for phenoconversion to a defined neurodegenerative disease.We searched our electronic medical record ...
