Background CNV in KCTD13 has been identified to influence androgen receptor function via its changes in gene dosage, which might contribute to hypospadias. However, there is lack of population-level evidence to assess the contribution of KCTD13 CNV to hypospadias.Methods 349 isolated hypospadias patients were recruited and their genotyping was perf...

Background Biomarkers can be used to assess the severity of spinal muscular atrophy (5q SMA; SMA). Despite their potential, the relationship between biomarkers and clinical outcomes in SMA remains underexplored. This study aimed to assess the association among biomarkers, phenotypes, and motor milestones in Chinese patients diagnosed with SMA. Meth...

INTRODUCTION: Assessment of drug-related adverse events is essential to fully understand the benefit-risk balance of any drug exposure, weighing efficacy versus safety. This is needed for both drug labeling and clinical decision-making. Assessment is based on seriousness, severity and causality, be it more difficult to apply in neonates. Adverse ev...

Reaction threshold and severity in food allergy are difficult to predict, and noninvasive predictors are lacking. We sought to determine the relationships between pre-challenge levels of peanut (PN)-specific antibodies in saliva and reaction threshold, severity, and organ-specific symptoms during PN allergic reactions. We measured PN-specific antib...

peer reviewed / Increasing land surface temperature (LST) and urban heat island intensity (UHII) have been reported to be closely associated with a large number of environmental issues. Understanding LST and UHII rise in cities during heatwaves is crucial for implementing mitigation measures. This paper aims to explain these variations in response ...

To develop a clinical instrument to assess carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) severity before electrodiagnostic testing. Data from 1037 patients with CTS (39.1% male) were included. The mean (SD) age was 58.0 (10.8) years. The severity of CTS was based on electrodiagnostic findings. We devised a composite index incorporating a pain numeric rating scale (...

In this study, we assessed the clinical and microbiological characteristics of heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediated Staphylococcus aureus (hVISA) bacteremia and identified risk factors for vancomycin treatment failure. We found that advanced age and severity of infection were independent risk factors for vancomycin treatment failure. On the other...
