Background: Many patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) nowadays have reached adulthood, as well as their sisters, possibly carriers of a deleterious Bruton tyrosine kinase variant. Studies on motherhood outcomes in families with XLA are lacking.

Objective: We sought to investigate adherence to carrier status screening, interest in preconception and prenatal genetic counseling, and reproductive decisions in relatives with XLA.

Sleep-wake disorders are recognized as one of the earliest symptoms of Alzheimer disease (AD). Accumulating evidence has highlighted a significant association between sleep-wake disorders and AD pathogenesis, suggesting that sleep-wake modulation could be a promising approach for postponing AD onset. The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and the pineal hormone melatonin are major central modulating components of the circadian rhythm system.

Background Indeterminate focal liver observations in patients at risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) may require invasive biopsy or follow-up, which could lead to delays in definitive categorization and to postponement of treatment. Purpose To examine clinical effect of contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) in participants with high-risk indeterminate liver observations categorized as Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) category LR-4 (probably HCC) or LI-RADS category LR-M (probably or definitely malignant but not HCC specific) at CT or MRI. Materials and Methods This was a secondary analysis of a prospective international multicenter validation study for CEUS LI-RADS (January 2018 to August 2021).

[Perioperative management of obese patients undergoing elective hip and knee arthroplasty].

Orthopadie (Heidelb)

January 2025

Klinik für Orthopädie, Allgemeines Krankenhaus Linz, Linz, Österreich.

Introduction: Obesity is a worldwide growing health crisis, affecting younger and younger age groups and posing new challenges for arthroplasty. Due to increased complication rates in this population, many authors are of the opinion that in patients with a body mass index (BMI) of over 40, the problems outweigh the benefits of surgery and that surgery should be postponed until significant weight reduction has been achieved.

Materials And Methods: A systematic review of electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library) was performed.
