Effects of pregnancy on neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder and predictors of related attacks

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1918-1925, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Our study aimed to investigate the influence of pregnancy on the course of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and to explore the independent predictors of pregnancy‐related attacks. Methods We performed a retrospective study of patients with NMOSD based on the Wingerchuk 2006 or the revised Wingerchuk 2015 criteria ...

Romiplostim use in pregnant women with immune thrombocytopenia

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 31-40, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Treatment for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in pregnancy is hampered by the lack of fetal safety evidence of maternally‐administered medications. The Pregnancy Surveillance Program (PSP) collected patient information from 2017–2020 for pregnancy, birth outcomes, and adverse events (AEs) for 186 women exposed to romiplostim from 20 days before ...

Elemental models of primate nursing and weaning revisited

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 180, Issue 1, Page 216-223, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objectives Intra‐tooth patterns of trace elements barium (Ba) and strontium (Sr) have been used to infer human and nonhuman primate nursing histories, including australopithecine and Neanderthal juveniles. Here, we contrast the two elemental models in first molars (M1s) of four wild baboons and explore the assumptions that underlie each ...

Shape-aware Segmentation of the Placenta in BOLD Fetal MRI Time Series [PDF]

Machine.Learning.for.Biomedical.Imaging. 2 (2023), 2023
Blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) MRI time series with maternal hyperoxia can assess placental oxygenation and function. Measuring precise BOLD changes in the placenta requires accurate temporal placental segmentation and is confounded by fetal and maternal motion, contractions, and hyperoxia-induced intensity changes.

Q fever outbreak in the terraced vineyards of Lavaux, Switzerland

New Microbes and New Infections, EarlyView., 2014
Abstract Coxiella burnetii infection (Q fever) is a widespread zoonosis with low endemicity in Switzerland, therefore no mandatory public report was required. A cluster of initially ten human cases of acute Q fever infections characterized by prolonged fever, asthenia and mild hepatitis occurred in 2012 in the terraced vineyard of Lavaux ...

Intranuclear Crosstalk between Extracellular Regulated Kinase1/2 and Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 Regulates JEG-3 Choriocarcinoma Cell Invasion and Proliferation

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
Invasiveness of trophoblast and choriocarcinoma cells is in part mediated via leukemia inhibitory factor- (LIF-) induced activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3).

The immunolocalization of HIF‐2α, GLUT1 and CAIX in porcine oviduct during the estrous cycle

The Anatomical Record, Volume 306, Issue 1, Page 176-186, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Oxygen (O2) rates in the oviduct are essential to human and animal reproduction. These rates are regulated by the activity of hypoxia markers such as the hypoxia‐inducible factors (HIFs), the glucose transporters (GLUT), and the carbonic anhydrase (CA).
