Background: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare, hereditary disease that causes disruption in phenylalanine (Phe) metabolism. Despite early intervention, individuals with PKU may have difficulty in several different cognitive domains, including verbal fluency, processing speed, and executive functioning.
Objective: The overarching goal of the Evaluating Fluctuations in Cognitive and Speech Characteristics in Phenylketonuria study (CSP Study) is to characterize the relationships among cognition, speech, mood, and blood-based biomarkers (Phe, Tyr) in individuals with early treated PKU.

A significant risk factor for developing an ovarian torsion is the presence of an ovarian mass, such as a cyst.

Patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) without systemic vasculitis are sometimes ANCA-positive. Radiological and pathological differences between patients with myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA-positive and those with proteinase 3 (PR3)-ANCA-positive IIPs remain unclear.
