Diagnosis of Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome by ultraviolet spectrophotometry
Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is an autosomal recessive disorder due to an inborn error of cholesterol metabolism, characterized by congenital malformations, dysmorphism of multiple organs, mental retardation and delayed neuropsychomotor development ...

The 3‐Hit Metabolic Signaling Model for Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Summary
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable yet environmentally sensitive neurodevelopmental condition whose biological heterogeneity has resisted a unifying causal explanation for over 100 years. The 3‐hit metabolic signaling model proposes that ASD arises from abnormal persistence of an evolutionarily conserved stress‐response ...

Asymmetric Reduction of Unactivated Alkenes
Unactivated alkenes rank among the most inert functional groups in synthesis and their selective reduction remains challenging. This Review charts the evolution from classical metal‐catalyzed hydrogenation to radical hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and emerging biocatalytic concepts, highlighting how complementary mechanistic strategies, including the ...

Elevated autophagy and mitochondrial dysfunction in the Smith–Lemli–Opitz Syndrome
Smith–Lemli–Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) is a congenital, autosomal recessive metabolic and developmental disorder caused by mutations in the enzyme which catalyzes the reduction of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) to cholesterol.

Direct analysis of sterols from dried plasma/blood spots by an atmospheric pressure thermal desorption chemical ionization mass spectrometry (APTDCI-MS) method for a rapid screening of Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome. [PDF]
Here is proposed a rapid and sensitive method involving atmospheric pressure thermal desorption chemical ionization mass spectrometry (APTDCI-MS) for specific laboratory screening of the Smith– Lemli–Opitz syndrome (SLOS), an inherited defect of ...

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the additional clinical value of nuchal translucency (NT) measurement at the first‐trimester anomaly scan (FTAS) in a setting with first‐tier non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Method This nationwide prospective cohort study, part of the IMITAS study on FTAS implementation, included all pregnancies with increased NT

The Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE): Coexisting systemic disorders 2007–2023
Abstract Purpose To analyse the frequency and type of coexisting systemic disorders in children operated on for cataract in Sweden. Methods Data were retrieved from the Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE) for children operated between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2023 (n = 975), including follow‐ups at age 1, 2, 5 and 10 ...
