Predicting disease recurrence in patients with endometriosis: an observational study.

Background: Despite surgical and pharmacological interventions, endometriosis can recur. Reliable information regarding risk of recurrence following a first diagnosis is scant. The aim of this study was to examine clinical and survey data in the setting of disease recurrence to identify predictors of risk of endometriosis recurrence.

Intracranial multiple myeloma with intraparenchymal involvement: Case report and literature review.

Intraparenchymal extension of multiple myeloma is a rare manifestation of the disease. Here, we present a case of a patient with multiple myeloma lesions situated adjacent to the meninges and intraparenchymally.

Substrate Availability of Mutant SPT Alters Neuronal Branching and Growth Cone Dynamics in Dorsal Root Ganglia.

Unlabelled: Serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) is a key enzyme in the first step of sphingolipid biosynthesis. Mutations in the SPTLC1 gene that encodes for SPT subunits cause hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1. However, little is understood about how mutant SPT regulates mechanisms of sensory neuron and axonal growth.
