Intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Bulletin, 2014
Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is a common neurogenetic disorder and its heterogeneity is a challenge for genetic diagnostics. The genetic diagnostic procedures for a CMT patient can be explored according to the electrophysiological criteria: very slow motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) (45 m/s).

The Alteration of Salivary Immunoglobulin A in Autism Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
Objectives: Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are neurodevelopmental disorders with changes in the gut and oral microbiota. Based on the intimate relationship between the oral microbiota and oral mucosal immunity, this study aimed to investigate changes in

MFN2 mutations in Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease alter mitochondria-associated ER membrane function but do not impair bioenergetics

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2019
Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT) type 2A is a form of peripheral neuropathy, due almost exclusively to dominant mutations in the nuclear gene encoding the mitochondrial protein mitofusin-2 (MFN2).

Diagnosis of Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth Disease [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2009
Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth (CMT) disease or hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN) is a genetically heterogeneous group of conditions that affect the peripheral nervous system. The disease is characterized by degeneration or abnormal development of peripheral nerves and exhibits a range of patterns of genetic transmission.

Dental amalgam fillings: An under-investigated source of mercury exposure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Dental amalgam fillings, which contain about 50% mercury, have been used since the early 19th century. However, their use has been controversial, particularly because they continually release small amounts of mercury.

Risk of having myocardial infarction in periodontal disease patients: A systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry, 2019
Introduction: Periodontal disease is a common inflammatory disease of the teeth. There is mounting evidence that poor dental health, especially the occurrence of periodontal disease, increases the probability of the occurrence of cardiovascular disease ...

X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Peripheral Nervous System, 2005
AbstractThe X‐linked form of Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease (CMT1X) is the second most common form of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy. The clinical phenotype is characterized by progressive muscle atrophy and weakness, areflexia, and variable sensory abnormalities; central nervous system manifestations occur, too.

Patient-centered endodontic outcomes: a narrative review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
IntroductionRoot canal treatment (RCT) success criteria inform us of the path to bony healing and of prognostic factors, but tell little about how the patient perceives, feels, or values RCT.

Mitochondrial disease mimicking Charcot-Marie Tooth disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2007
Charcot-Marie tooth disease (CMT) is a heterogenous group of peripheral neuropathies caused by various genetic defects. Three cases of mitochondrial myopathy, neuropathy and gastrointestinal encephalopathy (MNGIE) which initially presented with a peripheral neuropathy resembling CMT are described here.
