LRRC6 mutation causes primary ciliary dyskinesia with dynein arm defects. [PDF]
Despite recent progress in defining the ciliome, the genetic basis for many cases of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) remains elusive. We evaluated five children from two unrelated, consanguineous Palestinian families who had PCD with typical clinical ...

Case series: Joubert syndrome and eosinophilic esophagitis
Abstract Joubert syndrome (JS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by developmental abnormalities, particularly in the brainstem and cerebellar vermis, alongside multisystem manifestations such as kidney and liver anomalies, polydactyly, cleft lip or palate, and tongue defects.

COVID-19 Vaccinations: Perceptions and Behaviours in People with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disease that causes recurrent respiratory infections. People with PCD may be at higher risk of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and therefore vaccination against severe acute respiratory ...

Impact of Obesity on the Structured Histopathology of Chronic Rhinosinusitis Patients
ABSTRACT Objectives Obesity is an established risk factor for asthma, which shares common inflammatory pathways with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). However, the link between obesity and CRS remains poorly understood. By identifying trends in the structured histopathology (SHP) of obese patients with CRS, we aim to better understand how changes in the ...

Elexacaftor–Tezacaftor–Ivacaftor Reduces Revision Sinus Surgery in People With Cystic Fibrosis
Elexacaftor–tezacaftor–ivacaftor (ETI) was associated with a significant decrease in the frequency and rate of endoscopic sinus surgeries in patients with cystic fibrosis. These findings suggest an improvement in CF‐related chronic rhinosinusitis outcomes following ETI and may influence future CF treatment decisions.
