Impact of Virus‐Mediated Modifications in Bacterial Communities on the Accumulation of Soil Organic Carbon

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study illustrates the impact of viruses on carbon cycling in soils with different availabilities of carbon. In conditions of low carbon availability, viruses adopt a lysogenic lifestyle, integrate into the host genomes and facilitate the degradation of carbon.

Genetic predisposition to porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder: A functional genomic‐based, multigenerational family study

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...

Electrical storm refractory multiple antiarrhythmic medications was stopped by interatrial shunting procedure—A case report

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Electrical storm (ES) remains a major dilemma for clinicians, often presenting as a medical emergency associated with significant adverse outcomes. The mechanisms behind triggering ES are complex. Although the increased activation of the sympathetic nervous system was widely accepted as a major mechanism in initiating and maintaining ES, it's thought ...
