Genetic Diagnostic Yield in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Epilepsy Phenotypes in Children with Genetically Defined ASD.

We compared the epilepsy phenotypes in children with genetically defined versus undefined autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A single-center retrospective study was conducted to investigate diagnostic yields of different genetic testing for children with ASD. Patients with at least one testing modality were included and classified as having genetically defined ASD or not based on updated genotype-phenotype correlation.

Fluid Flow Analysis of Neonatal Dual-Lumen Cannulas for Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.

Hemolysis persists as a common and serious problem for neonatal patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Since the cannula within the ECMO circuit is associated with hemolysis-inducing shear stresses, real-world internal fluid flow measurements are urgently needed to understand the mechanism and confirm computational estimates. This study appears to be the first experimental study of fluid flow inside commercial ECMO dual-lumen cannulas (DLCs) and first particle image velocimetry (PIV) visualization inside a complicated medical device.
