Case report: Dramatic impact of DNA next generation sequencing results using specific targeted therapies- and .

In the era of targeted therapies, the clinical importance and utility of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has expanded significantly. Owing to the relative ease and financial feasibility of NGS, the use of personalized treatment strategies has the potential to revolutionize cancer care. In this case report, we explored the use of NGS in salivary gland carcinoma (SGC) and spindle cell neoplasm of the scalp.

Cell death induced by Lepeophtheirus salmonis labial gland protein 3 in salmonid fish leukocytes: A mechanism for disabling host immune responses.

The salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) is an ectoparasite feeding on mucus, skin, and blood of salmonids. On parasitised fish erosions and, at later lice stages, ulcerations appear at the louse feeding site. In susceptible species like Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) with a limited rejection of lice, only a mild inflammatory response with minor influx of immune cells is seen at these lesions, as the salmon louse secrete proteins that can dampen immune responses.

Nanopore sequencing provides snapshots of the genetic variation within salmonid alphavirus-3 (SAV3) during an ongoing infection in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and brown trout (Salmo trutta).

Frequent RNA virus mutations raise concerns about evolving virulent variants. The purpose of this study was to investigate genetic variation in salmonid alphavirus-3 (SAV3) over the course of an experimental infection in Atlantic salmon and brown trout. Atlantic salmon and brown trout parr were infected using a cohabitation challenge, and heart samples were collected for analysis of the SAV3 genome at 2-, 4- and 8-weeks post-challenge.

Moving from Disorder to Difference: A Systematic Review of Recent Language Use in Autism Research.

Background: The neurodiversity paradigm positions autism as a neurological difference that is disabling in the societal context, shifting away from the traditional medical view of a disorder. Several recent publications recommend use of alternative neuro-affirming language (ANL) instead of traditional medical language (TML) with the aim to increase acceptance of autistic people and reduce prejudice. Examining language use within recent autism literature, including by journal and study characteristics, may offer insight into the influence of these recommendations and current disability discourse.

Associations between Computationally Derived Parent Emotional Sentiment Scores and Child ADHD and ODD Over Time.

Family emotional climate is often assessed as expressed emotion (EE) using the five-minute speech sample (FMSS). Parent EE is related to child externalizing behavior, but the relationship with ADHD apart from externalizing is unclear. We report the largest ADHD-non-ADHD study of EE to date, introduce computational scoring of the FMSS to assay parent negative sentiment, and use this to evaluate reciprocal parent-child effects over time in ADHD while considering comorbid ODD.
