Somatic mutations and progressive monosomy modify SAMD9-related phenotypes in humans [PDF]
It is well established that somatic genomic changes can influence phenotypes in cancer, but the role of adaptive changes in developmental disorders is less well understood.

Multimodal imaging in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue calcinosis
Soft tissue calcinosis is a common radiographic finding, which may be related to different types of pathological processes. Multimodality imaging, combined with analysis of clinical and laboratory data, plays an important role for the differential ...

Increased uptake on 99mTc bone scintigraphy in a case of tumoral calcinosis in a child
Tumoral calcinosis is an idiopathic condition resulting in the periarticular deposition of calcium crystals and salts in soft tissues. It is rare in children, and even rarer in idiopathic form.

Calcinosis of the internal jugular vein: Interesting presentation of tertiary hyperparathyroidism
Tumoral calcinosis is a severe complication of hemodialysis. A 49‐year‐old male on dialysis for end‐stage renal disease developed a large calcified retropharyngeal mass. This caused stridor and dyspnea, necessitating an emergency awake tracheostomy. This

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Tumoral calcinosis of bilateral hip joint in an adult female: A Case report [PDF]
The term Tumoral Calcinosis (TC) was coined by Inclan in 1943 but similar pathological entities were recognized in the late 1890s [1,2]. It is a rare condition consisting of accumulation of calcium in periarticular tissue outside of capsule.

Establishment of sandwich ELISA for soluble alpha-Klotho measurement: Age-dependent change of soluble alpha-Klotho levels in healthy subjects [PDF]
Background α-Klotho (αKl) regulates mineral metabolism such as calcium ion (Ca2+) and inorganic phosphate (Pi) in circulation. Defects in mice result in clinical features resembling disorders found in human aging.
