Kinematic Alignment Does Not Result in Clinically Important Improvements After TKA Compared With Mechanical Alignment: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Trials.
Clin Orthop Relat Res
January 2025
Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Background: There is debate as to whether kinematic TKA or mechanical alignment TKA is superior. Recent systematic reviews have suggested that kinematically aligned TKAs may be the preferred option. However, the observed differences in alignment favoring kinematic alignment may not improve outcomes (performance or durability) in ways that patients can perceive, and likewise, statistical differences in outcome scores sometimes observed in clinical trials may be too small for patients to notice.

Arq Bras Cardiol
January 2025
Programa de Pós-Graduação em Alimentação, Nutrição e Saúde - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, RS - Brasil.
Background: The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism (rs4340) is associated with the pathogenesis of heart failure (HF). This polymorphism may contribute to a greater propensity for severe HF and excess weight.
Objective: To evaluate adiposity, cardiac function, and their association with ACE I/D polymorphism in HF patients.
A versatile site-directed gene trap strategy to manipulate gene activity and control gene expression in Caenorhabditis elegans.
PLoS Genet
January 2025
Department of Integrative Biology, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, Wisconsin, United States of America.
The ability to manipulate gene activity and control transgene expression is essential to study gene function. While several genetic tools for modifying genes or controlling expression separately are available for Caenorhabditis elegans, there are no genetic approaches to generate mutations that simultaneously disrupt gene function and provide genetic access to the cells expressing the disrupted gene. To achieve this, we developed a versatile gene trap strategy based on cGAL, a GAL4-UAS bipartite expression system for C.

Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
January 2025
Hackensack University Medical Center, Hackensack, New Jersey, USA.
Background: Patients with prior history of chest or mediastinal radiation are deemed high risk for surgical AVR. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a promising alternative for these patients, however, this patient population was underrepresented in prior TAVR trials.
Aims: To compare the outcomes of TAVR in patients with versus without a history of prior chest or mediastinal radiation.
Association analysis between forkhead box E1 gene and non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate in Han Chinese population.
Hua Xi Kou Qiang Yi Xue Za Zhi
February 2025
State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases & National Center for Stomatology & National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases & Dept. of Cleft Lip and Palate Surgery, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, China.
Objectives: This study aims to explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) loci near the haplotype region hg19 chr9:100560865-100660865 of the forkhead box E1 (FOXE1) gene and the occurrence of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) in western Han Chinese population.
Methods: In the first stage, our study recruited 159 NSCL/P patients and performed targeted region sequencing to screen SNPs loci near the haplotype region of the FOXE1 gene associated with NSCL/P. In the second stage, we selected 21 common SNPs and re-enrolled 1 000 non-syndromic cleft lip only (NSCLO) patients, 1 000 non-syndromic cleft palate only (NSCPO) patients, and 1 000 normal controls to verify the association.
