Nanometer Layer Coating to Lactose Particles for Optimization of Dexamethasone Pulmonary Delivery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanometer layer coating (NLC) was investigated and its mechanism illustrated by advanced characterization techniques. The effects and application for the inhalation of dexamethasone (DEX) were demonstrated through in vitro and in vivo evaluation. This approach increased DEX bioavailability and enabled the dose to be reduced to 1/30 of the intravenous ...

Clinical significance of regional constructive and wasted work in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundPrevious studies have shown that global constructive work (CW) and wasted work (WW) predict response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). This study evaluated the predictive value of regional CW and WW for reverse remodeling and clinical

A Novel Pak1 Activator Ameliorates ER Stress for HFpEF Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic metabolic stress is a major contributor to HFpEF progression. Under prolonged metabolic stress, Pak1 activity becomes impaired, contributing to disrupted ER proteostasis, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Mechanistically, Pak1 overexpression activates the ERK1/2–MNK1–eIF4E signaling axis, promotes translational ...

Routine orthostatic LVOT gradient assessment in patients with basal septal hypertrophy and LVOT flow acceleration at rest: please stand up

Echo Research and Practice, 2019
A 70-year-old female with exertional dyspnoea was found to have basal septal hypertrophy (BSH), or a ‘basal septal bulge’, with evidence of mild left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOT) at rest on her initial echocardiogram.

Defining Features of Gabriele‐de Vries Syndrome in Adults: A Case Report and Literature Review

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gabriele‐de Vries syndrome (GADEVS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the YY1 gene. Like most rare genetic syndromes, the adult manifestations of GADEVS remain poorly defined. Here, we describe the oldest patient reported to date with GADEVS—a 63‐year‐old woman with a c.1177_1179del YY1 variant ...

Streamlining Diagnosis of Bardet–Biedl Syndrome: New Diagnostic Algorithm With Updated Criteria

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Considerable advances have been made in our understanding of Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS), particularly in its core clinical features and molecular genetics, warranting an update to the existing diagnostic criteria framework. Using a rigorous, evidence‐based, and consensus‐driven process, a multidisciplinary group of international experts and ...

De Novo 2.2 Mb 19q13.42–q13.43 Microdeletion Encompassing U2AF2: Support for a Haploinsufficiency Model

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 2 (U2AF2) is an essential pre‐mRNA splicing factor involved in the early stages of pre‐mRNA splicing. To date, multiple individuals have been reported with predominantly heterozygous missense variants presenting intellectual disability, speech and motor delays, seizures, hypotonia, and thin or hypoplastic ...
