Diagnostic value of the Dutch version of the MCclean Screening instrument for BPD (MSI-BPD) [PDF]
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) often goes unrecognized, and therefore a short but accurate screening tool is desired. The present study investigated the psychometric properties of the 10-item McLean Screening Instrument for BPD (MSI-BPD) in 159 ...

Impulse oscillometry identifies peripheral airway dysfunction in children with adenosine deaminase deficiency. [PDF]
Adenosine deaminase-deficient severe combined immunodeficiency (ADA-SCID) is characterized by impaired T-, B- and NK-cell function. Affected children, in addition to early onset of infections, manifest non-immunologic symptoms including pulmonary ...

Differentiation of Uterine Natural Killer Cells in Pregnant SCID (scid/scid) Mice
To determine whether functional T- and B-cells can affect differentiation and/or proliferation of uterine natural killer (uNK) cells, their numbers in SCID mice (genotype, C.B.-17/Icr-scid/scid) were compared with those of control mice (genotype, C.B.-17/Icr-+/+) on days 8, 12 and 16 of pregnancy.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Meets Severe Combined Immunodeficiency [PDF]
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is classified as a primary immunodeficiency, which is characterized by impaired T-lymphocytes differentiation. IL2RG, IL7Ralpha, JAK3, ADA, RAG1/RAG2, and DCLE1C (Artemis) are the most defective genes in SCID.
