Gene Expression Biomarkers for Breast Ductal Carcinoma in Situ Recurrence Prediction

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is often overtreated due to a lack of robust prognostic and predictive tools. This study aimed to evaluate gene expression in a well‐characterised DCIS cohort to determine their clinical utility as biomarkers for ipsilateral recurrence. RNA was extracted from microdissected tissues from primary DCIS.

Body weight in autism spectrum disorder: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence on the relationship of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to overweight/obesity and underweight is mixed. Moreover, it is unclear how this relationship changes with age. Methods We carried out a systematic review (SR) with meta‐analysis on the association between ASD and obesity, overweight and underweight across the life span.

Mapping Allergen B‐ and T‐Cell Epitopes: Technological Advances and Their Role in Precision Allergy Therapy

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic diseases arise from aberrant immune recognition of otherwise harmless environmental proteins and are driven by epitope‐specific interactions between allergens and the adaptive immune system. Although component‐resolved diagnostics have improved molecular characterisation of sensitization, they remain limited to whole‐allergen ...
