Liver stiffness in patients with Shwachman‐Diamond syndrome

JPGN Reports, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 200-206, May 2026.
Abstract Objective This case series aims to describe whether transient elastography (TE) as a marker of liver stiffness is associated with clinically important liver disease in children and young adults with Shwachman‐Diamond Syndrome (SDS). Methods All patients ≤25 years of age with genetically confirmed SDS seen in the Pediatric Gastroenterology ...

Reachable Workspace and Proximal Function Measures for Quantifying Upper Limb Motion. [PDF]

, 2020
There are a lack of quantitative measures for clinically assessing upper limb function. Conventional biomechanical performance measures are restricted to specialist labs due to hardware cost and complexity, while the resulting measurements require ...

Spag17 Deficiency Results in Skeletal Malformations and Bone Abnormalities [PDF]

, 2015
Height is the result of many growth and development processes. Most of the genes associated with height are known to play a role in skeletal development. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the SPAG17 gene have been associated with human height.

Gamma Irradiation of Poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) Scaffolds Reduces the Mechanical Stability and Function of Islet Grafts in Diabetic Nonhuman Primates

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 3, Page 742-751, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Clinical islet transplantation has long been investigated as a potential cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D), yet standard intrahepatic delivery leaves islets prone to an instant blood‐mediated inflammatory response. Herein, we investigated the design of microporous poly(D,l‐lactide‐co‐glycolide) (PLG) scaffolds for extrahepatic islet ...

Implantation of a poly-L-lactide GCSF-functionalized scaffold in a model of chronic myocardial infarction [PDF]

, 2017
A previously developed poly-l-lactide scaffold releasing granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PLLA/GCSF) was tested in a rabbit chronic model of myocardial infarction (MI) as a ventricular patch.

Central Venous Catheter for Treating Pseudomeningocele Compressing the Spinal Cord After Thoracic Ossification Surgery: Case Series

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 453-458, March 2026.
This study addresses a critical clinical challenge: the management of symptomatic pseudomeningocele (PMC) causing spinal cord compression following spinal surgery. Traditional treatments face limitations in efficacy and invasiveness. Here, we propose an innovative minimally invasive technique using central venous catheterization under ultrasound ...

Disruption of the mouse MRF4 gene identifies multiple waves of myogenesis in the myotome [PDF]

, 1995
MRF4 (herculin/Myf-6) is one of the four member MyoD family of transcription factors identified by their ability to enforce skeletal muscle differentiation upon a wide variety of nonmuscle cell types.

New information on the anatomy of the Chinese Early Cretaceous Bohaiornithidae (Aves: Enantiornithes) from a subadult specimen of Zhouornis hani [PDF]

, 2014
Enantiornithines are the most diverse avian clade in the Cretaceous. However, morphological specializations indicative of specific ecological roles are not well known for this clade. Here we report on an exquisitely well-preserved specimen from the Lower

Prolonged survival in a young Dobermann with adrenal neuroblastoma

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract A 1‐year‐old Dobermann presented with recurrent episodes of acute diarrhoea and weight loss starting at 5 months of age. An adrenal mass was identified via ultrasound and computed tomography, leading to adrenalectomy. A diagnosis of adrenal neuroblastoma was obtained through histopathology and immunohistochemistry.

Establishment of a biosafe murine model of skeletal tuberculosis using Mycobacterium smegmatis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 5-20, January 2026.
This study developed a biosafe, accessible, and versatile murine model of bone TB using Mycobacterium smegmatis, a fast‐growing, nonpathogenic mycobacterial species with high genomic homology to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Three infection routes—subperiosteal calvarial injection, intratibial injection, and intracardiac (left ventricular) inoculation ...
