We report on two novel patients with ALG11-CDG. The phenotype was characterized by severe psychomotor disability, progressive microcephaly, sensorineural hearing loss, therapy-resistant epilepsy with burst suppression EEG, cerebral atrophy with, in one of them, neuronal heterotopia, and early lethality. Analysis of revealed compound heterozygosity involving three novel mutations: the splice site mutation c.45-2A > T, the c.36dupG duplication, and the missense mutation c.479G > T (p.G160V) that was present in both.

A novel LC-MS/MS assay for low concentrations of creatinine in sweat and saliva to validate biosensors for continuous monitoring of renal function.

J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci

Clinical Laboratory, Catharina Hospital Eindhoven, Eindhoven 5623 EJ, The Netherlands; Department of Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Biology, Eindhoven University of Technology, Groene Loper 3, Eindhoven 5612 AE, The Netherlands.

Monitoring of kidney function traditionally relies on plasma creatinine concentrations, necessitating invasive blood draws. Non-invasively obtainable biofluids, such as sweat and saliva, present a patient-friendly alternative with potential for continuous monitoring. This study focusses on developing and validating a novel Liquid Chromatography- tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assay as a reference test for measuring low creatinine concentrations in sweat and saliva.

Institut de Recherche en Santé, Environnement et Travail (Irset)─Inserm─EHESP, UMR_S 1085, Université de Rennes, 9 av. du Professeur Léon Bernard, F-35042 Rennes, France.

Amyloidosis is a group of proteinopathies characterized by the systemic or organ-specific deposition of proteins in the form of amyloid fibers. Nearly 40 proteins play a role in these pathologies, and the structures of the associated fibers are beginning to be determined by Cryo-EM. However, the molecular events underlying the process, such as fiber nucleation and elongation, are poorly understood, which impairs developing efficient therapies.

Single-cell proteomics (SCP) detected based on different technologies always involves batch-specific variations because of differences in sample processing and other potential biases. How to integrate SCP data effectively has become a great challenge. Integration of SCP data not only requires the conservation of true biological variances, but also realizes the removal of unwanted batch effects.

Institute for Brain Research and Rehabilitation, South China Normal University, Guangzhou 510631, China.

Background And Hypothesis: Population-based morphological covariance networks are widely reported to be altered in schizophrenia. Individualized morphological brain network approaches have emerged recently. We hypothesize that individualized morphological brain networks are disrupted in schizophrenia.

The traditional method of performing open common bile duct exploration (OCBDE) was replaced by a less invasive procedure known as laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) in elective surgery. But at present, the application of this technique is considered novel and controversial to treat acute cholangitis (AC). The aim of our systematic review was to investigate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic surgery in patients with AC.
