Impact of Highly Effective Modulator Therapy on Olfactory‐Specific Gene Expression in People With Cystic Fibrosis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis is common in people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF). Highly effective modulator therapy (HEMT) has been shown to improve sinonasal outcomes. However, prior studies failed to show improvement in objective olfaction with HEMT, and the impact of HEMT on olfactory‐specific quality of life has yet to be studied ...

Cerebrospinal Fluid Cytokine Expression and Relationships With Neurological Measures in Virologically Controlled People With HIV

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Quantify cytokines in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of virologically suppressed people with HIV (PWH) and people without HIV (PWoH) and correlate these with neuroimaging, neuropsychometric (NP), and neurodegenerative measurements. Methods CSF samples were collected from virologically suppressed PWH and demographically matched PWoH under a natural

Over the edge: Empirical evidence for the cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection maintains that larger neonates and smaller birth canals confer a positive selective advantage until labor becomes obstructed and vaginal delivery is no longer possible, eliciting an abrupt reduction in fitness.

The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

The “costly son” hypothesis: Sons exacerbate obstetrical dilemmas in humans and other mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth has often been considered uniquely difficult among mammals, yet recent evidence suggests that obstructed labor and fetopelvic disproportion are widespread across placental mammals. Here, we propose the “costly son” hypothesis: because male offspring are typically larger at birth, they impose greater obstetric risk on mothers ...

Elevated Serum Levels of Pregnancy-Associated Plasma Protein-A in Type 2 Diabetics Compared to Healthy Controls: Associations with Subclinical Atherosclerosis Parameters

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica, 2015
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with increased inflammation and accelerated atherosclerosis. The association of the pro-inflammatory and potentially pro-atherosclerotic molecule, pregnancy associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) with diabetes and ...
