Homozygosity for moyamoya disease risk allele leads to moyamoya disease with extracranial systemic and pulmonary vasculopathy

AlexAndros SfakianakisστοMedicine by Alexandros G.Sfakianakis,Anapafseos 5 Agios Nikolaos,Crete 72100,Greece,tel :00302841026Πριν από 21 δευτερόλεπτα
Moyamoya disease is characterized by diffuse distal intracranial stenosis. Recently, *RNF213* has been identified as a susceptibility gene in the development of this condition. Pulmonary hypertension is a rare progressive vasculopathy with an unknown etiology. The co-occurrence of pulmonary hypertension and Moyamoya disease has been described in four patients; however, whether this co-occurrence represents a chance association or a common vascular pathology has remained unknown. Here, we report two unrelated male patients who presented during their childhood with dyspnea on exert... περισσότερα »

Diagnosis of Van den Ende–Gupta syndrome: Approach to the Marden–Walker-like spectrum of disorders

AlexAndros SfakianakisστοMedicine by Alexandros G.Sfakianakis,Anapafseos 5 Agios Nikolaos,Crete 72100,Greece,tel :00302841026Πριν από 21 δευτερόλεπτα
[image: cover.gif?v=1&s=dd44efa5f2ce1a4feafb0c58] Marden–Walker syndrome is challenging to diagnose, as there is significant overlap with other multi-system congenital contracture syndromes including Beals congenital contractural arachnodactyly, D4ST1-Deficient Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (adducted thumb-clubfoot syndrome), Schwartz–Jampel syndrome, Freeman–Sheldon syndrome, Cerebro-oculo-facio-skeletal syndrome, and Van den Ende–Gupta syndrome. We discuss this differential diagnosis in the context of a boy from a consanguineous union with Van den Ende–Gupta syndrome, a diagnosis initi... περισσότερα »

SETD5 loss-of-function mutation as a likely cause of a familial syndromic intellectual disability with variable phenotypic expression

AlexAndros SfakianakisστοMedicine by Alexandros G.Sfakianakis,Anapafseos 5 Agios Nikolaos,Crete 72100,Greece,tel :00302841026Πριν από 46 δευτερόλεπτα
[image: cover.gif?v=1&s=dd44efa5f2ce1a4feafb0c58] Loss-of-function de novo mutations in the *SETD5* gene, encoding a putative methyltransferase, are an important cause of moderate/severe intellectual disability as evidenced by the results of sequencing large patient cohorts. We present the first familial case of a *SETD5* mutation contributing to a phenotype of congenital heart defects and dysmorphic features, with variable expression, in two siblings and their father. Interestingly, the father demonstrated only mild intellectual impairment. Family based exome sequencing combined ... περισσότερα »

Gradient pre-emphasis to counteract first-order concomitant fields on asymmetric MRI gradient systems

Purpose To develop a gradient pre-emphasis scheme that prospectively counteracts the effects of the first-order concomitant fields for any arbitrary gradient waveform played on asymmetric gradient systems, and to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach using a real-time implementation on a compact gradient system. Methods After reviewing the first-order concomitant fields that are present on […]

Accelerated chemical shift imaging of hyperpolarized 13C metabolites

Purpose Chemical shift imaging (CSI) has long been considered the gold standard method for in vivo hyperpolarized 13C metabolite imaging because of its high sensitivity. However, CSI requires a large number of excitations so it is desirable to reduce the number of RF excitations and the total acquisition time. Methods Centric phase encoding and three-dimensional […]

A Proportion of Primary Squamous Cell Carcinomas of the Parotid Gland Harbor High Risk Human Papillomavirus

Abstract Aims In the current study, we aimed to examine primary parotid squamous cell carcinoma (ParSCC) for the presence of HR-HPV and associated molecular alterations. Methods and results Eight cases of ParSCC were retrieved after a detailed clinicopathologic review to exclude a possibility of metastasis and/or extension from another primary site. HR-HPV status was determined […]

Outcome after fixation of metastatic proximal femoral fractures: A systematic review of 40 studies

Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοΟγκολογίαΠριν από 1 ώρα
Endoprosthetic reconstruction, intramedullary nailing, and open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) are the most commonly practiced surgical strategies for treatment of metastatic proximal femoral fractures. This review describes functional outcome, local, and systemic complications. All three surgical strategies result in reasonable function on average; however, wide ranges indicate that both poor and good functional levels are obtained. We found that the overall reoperation rate was comparable for endoprosthesis and intramedullary nailing, but was higher for ORIF. *J. Surg. Onco... περισσότερα »
