Culture and personality are two central topics in psychology. Individuals are culturally influenced influencers of culture, yet the research linking culture and personality has been limited and fragmentary. We integrate the literatures on culture and personality with recent advances in socioecology and genetics to formulate the Socioecological-Gene...

Introduction The growth hormone deficiency (GHD) diagnosis is controversial especially due to low specificity of growth hormone (GH) stimulation tests. It is therefore believed that children diagnosed with GHD form a heterogeneous group with growth disorder frequently independent on GH function. No study evaluating the complex etiology of growth fa...

Background and aim Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is known to have one of the strongest HLA associations among autoimmune diseases. DRB1*0402 and DQB1*0503 in particular are significantly overrepresented in PV patients in certain worldwide populations. Yet, there remain significant gaps in our understanding regarding the precise link between PV-associated...

Hyperuricemia, pulmonary hypertension, and renal failure in infancy and alkalosis syndrome (HUPRA syndrome) is an ultrarare mitochondrial disease that is characterized by hyperuricemia, pulmonary hypertension, renal failure, and alkalosis. Seryl-tRNA synthetase 2 (SARS2) gene variants are believed to cause HUPRA syndrome, and these variants result ...

We profile genome-wide histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) of 3 major brain cell types from hippocampus and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) of subjects with and without Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). We confirm that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with late onset AD (LOAD) show a strong tendency to reside in microglia-spec...

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by social impairments and restricted, repetitive behaviors. Treatment of ASD is notoriously difficult and might benefit from identification of underlying mechanisms that overlap with those disturbed in other developmental disorders, for which treatment optio...

The application requirements of high frame rate CMOS image sensors (CIS) in the industry have not been satisfied due to the speed limitations in traditional single-slope and serial two-step analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). In this paper, a high-speed fully differential two-step ADC design method for CIS was proposed. The proposed method was bas...

Background: Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) is a rare and devastating genetic condition characterized by extremely elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) leading to an increased risk of premature atherosclerosis. Patients with Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia mostly present with mutations in LDLR; how...
