De Novo Complex Genomic Rearrangement Spanning 2q31.1 in a Proband With Congenital Malformations: Genotype–Phenotype Correlation and Development of a CGR Detection Pipeline

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2q31 region is commonly associated with pathogenic alleles of the HOXD cluster leading to various clinical phenotypes related to skeletal development. We present a proband with tetralogy of Fallot and multiple congenital anomalies. Genomic variant screening including an in‐house CGR detection pipeline pairing genome sequencing (GS ...

Canine brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome as a model for studying the effects of obstructive sleep apnea during pregnancy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We observed a negative effect of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) in a staggered manner based on the severity of the condition on respiratory and cardiac patterns, glycemia, acid–base balance, fetal growth, and uterine artery hemodynamics, thus requiring adaptations within the fetal–placental unit. Severely affected bitches had uterine

Ixekizumab With Tirzepatide Achieved Greater Disease Control Than Ixekizumab Alone in Adults With Psoriatic Arthritis and Overweight or Obesity: Results From a Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Overweight or obesity is prevalent in 72% to 82% of individuals with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). We assessed the efficacy and safety of ixekizumab (IXE) concomitantly administered with tirzepatide (TZP) compared with IXE alone in adult participants with active PsA and overweight with at least one weight‐related comorbidity or obesity.

What Is the Pterygomandibular Raphe? A Confluence of Fasciae Rather Than a Discrete Structure

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pterygomandibular raphe (PMR) has traditionally been described as a fibrous or tendinous band connecting the bucinator (BM) and superior pharyngeal constrictor (SPCM) muscles. However, recent evidence has questioned its existence. This study aimed to reevaluate the anatomy of the pterygomandibular region by preserving fascial continuity ...
