Myostatin/Smad3 in Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Biomarkers of Disease Severity and Treatment Response

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Given the role of Myostatin (MSTN) in muscle homeostasis and its modulation by current spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) therapies, we investigated serum MSTN and, for the first time, its downstream effector Smad3 as candidate non‐invasive biomarkers in SMA patients undergoing disease‐modifying therapies (DMTs).

Molecular Diagnosis in Children With Febrile Seizures: Beyond the Conventional Clinical Classification

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Febrile seizures (FS) are currently classified as simple or complex primarily to describe seizure characteristics, with limited ability to identify the underlying etiology. We evaluated whether molecular diagnosis could complement conventional classification and improve the diagnosis and management of FS.

Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring Schemes for Global Navigation Satellite Systems

, 2014
The accuracy of the navigation solutions can be greatly improved by using modernized GNSS with more visible satellites and multiple civilian frequencies. Another important performance criterion is integrity, which is defined to guarantee the safety of the navigation solution for such applications as civil aviation in which safety is of paramount issue.

Thermal Cycle–Microstructure–Property Relationships in Rail Steel Heat‐Affected Zone Simulated by Gleeble

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Microstructural evolution of premium rail steel during flash butt welding (FBW), comparing physically simulated heat‐affected zones with actual weld regions. Thermal cycles induce phase transformations and microstructural heterogeneity that influence weld quality and mechanical performance. These findings provide insights into optimizing FBW parameters
