GWAS for systemic sclerosis identifies multiple risk loci and highlights fibrotic and vasculopathy pathways

Nature Communications, 2019
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease that shows one of the highest mortality rates among rheumatic diseases. We perform a large genome-wide association study (GWAS), and meta-analysis with previous GWASs, in 26,679 individuals and identify ...

Risk Prediction of a Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. The progression and severity of MS varies by individual, but it is generally a disabling disease. Although medications have been developed to slow the disease progression and help manage symptoms, MS research has yet to result in a cure. Early diagnosis and

Serum VEGF levels are related to the presence of pulmonary arterial hypertension in systemic sclerosis

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2009
Background The association between systemic sclerosis and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is well recognized. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been reported to play an important role in pulmonary hypertension.

Multifractal organization of EEG signals in Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]

Biomedical Signal Processing and Control 91, 105916 (2024)
Quantifying the complex/multifractal organization of the brain signals is crucial to fully understanding the brain processes and structure. In this contribution, we performed the multifractal analysis of the electroencephalographic (EEG) data obtained from a controlled multiple sclerosis (MS) study, focusing on the correlation between the degree of ...
