A fully next-generation sequencing-based method of classifying molecular sub-types of endometrial cancer retains prognostic value and expands biomarker targets.

Objective: The molecular classification of endometrial cancer into POLE-ultra-mutated, mismatch repair-deficient, p53-mutated, and no specific molecular profile sub-types has significant prognostic value and is recommended in the evaluation of all patients with endometrial cancer. Nonetheless, there has been inconsistent clinical implementation. One possible barrier is the current practice of using several different assays, each with its own result, that subsequently need to be integrated.

The corpus callosum in people with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of genetic disorders that affect the adrenal glands. CAH manifests in abnormal levels of cortisol and androgens and is accompanied by white matter alterations. However, no CAH study has specifically targeted the corpus callosum, the brain's largest white matter fiber tract.

Physiochemical and functional evaluation of the first-in-class anti-cancer IgE antibody drug, MOv18, through process development and good manufacturing practice production.

Antibodies used for cancer therapy are monoclonal IgGs, but tumor-targeting IgE antibodies have shown enhanced effector cell potency against cancer in preclinical models. Research-grade recombinant IgE antibodies have been generated and studied for several decades. The recent Phase 1 clinical trial of the first-in-class MOv18 IgE, however, necessitated the inaugural process development and scaled manufacture of a recombinant IgE to clinical quality standards.

The neural activity of auditory conscious perception.

Although recent work has made headway in understanding the neural temporospatial dynamics of conscious perception, much of that work has focused on visual paradigms. To determine whether there are shared mechanisms for perceptual consciousness across sensory modalities, here we test within the auditory domain. Participants completed an auditory threshold task while undergoing intracranial electroencephalography.

Comparison of EEG Signal Characteristics of Subdural and Depth Electrodes.

Objectives: Our study aimed to compare signal characteristics of subdural electrodes (SDE) and depth stereo EEG placed within a 5-mm vicinity in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. We report how electrode design and placement collectively affect signal content from a shared source between these electrode types.

Methods: In subjects undergoing invasive intracranial EEG evaluation at a surgical epilepsy center from 2012 to 2018, stereo EEG and SDE electrode contacts placed within a 5-mm vicinity were identified.
