Mutations Disrupting Neuritogenesis Genes Confer Risk for Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of permanent movement disorders that appear in early childhood. Signs and symptoms vary among people and over time. Often, symptoms include poor coordination, stiff muscles, weak muscles, and tremors. More...14 Oct 2020
Elevated Levels of Defective Mitochondrial DNA Predict Likelihood of Reproductive Success
A sperm biomarker has been found that may be able to supplement or replace the semen parameters that poorly predict reproductive success yet are the most prevalent diagnostic tool for male infertility. More...14 Oct 2020
Bacterium and Viral Coinfection Contributes to Postinfectious Hydrocephalus
Neonatal sepsis often precedes postinfectious hydrocephalus (PIH), although the manifestations of hydrocephalus typically emerge in the months after the neonatal period as sufficient cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) accumulates such that cranial expansion garners medical attention. More...12 Oct 2020
Elevated Levels of Lipoprotein(a) Predict Increased Risk for Developing Cardiovascular Diseases
Measurement of the blood biomarker lipoprotein(a) predicts risk of developing cardiovascular disease as well as determination of such standard factors as cholesterol and triglycerides. More...12 Oct 2020
Genome Sequencing Evaluated in Children with Unexplained Medical Complexity
Children with medical complexity (CMC) have at least one chronic condition, depend on a technological tool like a ventilator or require intravenous nutrition or drugs, are under the care of multiple subspecialists, and have substantial healthcare use. More...08 Oct 2020
Blood-Based Test Accurately Identifies Viral Infection Before Symptoms Develop
Acute viral infections are one of the most common reasons for visits to primary care physicians in high-income countries. The usefulness of traditional pathogen-focused diagnostic methods for viral infection (e.g., culture, serology, antigen detection, and PCR) is limited by the fact they can be slow, costly, and restricted in terms of breadth of pathogens detected.
