Wilson’s disease in pregnancy: case series and review of literature [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Wilson’s disease is a rare, autosomal recessive inherited disorder characterized by impaired liver metabolism of copper leading to decreased biliary excretion and incorporation of ceruloplasmin levels mainly in the liver and brain.

IV. Wilson’s disease and Menkes disease
, 1999 Copper is an essential transition metal that permits the facile transfer of electrons in a series of critical biochemical pathways. Menkes disease and Wilson’s disease are inherited disorders of copper metabolism resulting from the absence or ...

Patient‐Derived Fibroblasts as a Clinically Relevant Model of Kearns–Sayre Syndrome
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Kearns–Sayre syndrome (KSS) is characterized by single large‐scale mitochondrial DNA deletions and by severe early‐onset clinical manifestations with neurological involvement. Reliable disease models, as well as validated biomarkers or effective treatments, are lacking.

Rethinking brachycephaly: Anatomical implications and health considerations in lagomorphs
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Brachycephaly in domestic rabbits is increasingly perceived by welfare organizations as associated with significant health complications, particularly oral pathologies. Despite this perception, comparative anatomical research into rabbit brachycephaly is limited compared to that of dogs and cats, compelling an in‐depth examination of its ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

Wilson’s disease presenting during pregnancy: A diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma
, 2017 Wilson’s disease is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder affecting copper transport leading to hepatic and/or neuropsychiatric manifestations. Changes in pregnancy can mimic certain clinical features of chronic liver disease such as spider naevi, and

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...
