Brachial plexopathy:a case-control study of the relation to physical exposures at work [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Work-related upper limb disorders constitute a diagnostic challenge. However, patterns of neurological abnormalities that reflect brachial plexus dysfunction are frequent in limbs with pain, weakness and/or numbness/tingling. There is limited

ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic yield of pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) using whole genome sequencing (WGS) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A systematic search of three databases (2000–2024) was conducted, and two reviewers independently ...

Venous thoracic outlet syndrome and hemodialysis
Central venous stenotic disease is reported in 7%–40% of patients needing a central venous catheter for dialysis and in 19%–41% of hemodialysis patients who have had a prior central venous catheter. Half of these patients will be asymptomatic.

Recurrent thoracic outlet syndrome [PDF]
Recurrent symptoms develop in 15% to 20% of patients undergoing either first rib resection or scalenectomy for thoracic outlet syndrome. Over the past 22 years 134 operations for recurrence were performed in 97 patients. Four operations were used: transaxillary first rib resection (26); supraclavicular first rib resection with neurolysis (15 ...

Phenotypic Expansion and Molecular Implications in Recessive FUZ‐Related Ciliopathy
Our patient with homozygous FUZ p.Arg234Trp, potentially altering FUZ‐CPLANE2 interactions, presented with aorto‐pulmonary window, Hirschsprung disease, and shared phenotypes with previously reported ciliopathy patients. This report provides additional evidence for FUZ as a causative gene for ciliopathy, offering novel insights into the phenotype ...
