We report a patient with right-predominant semantic variant primary progressive aphsia linked with p.Asp40Gly variant of ANXA11, which is the first description of frontotemporal dementia without clinical and electrophysiological evidences of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis associated with a known pathogenic variant of ANXA11.

Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a progressive deterioration in language and speech. It is classified into three variants based on symptom patterns: logopenic, semantic, and non-fluent. Due to the lack of fully reliable and valid screening tests for diagnosing PPA and its variants, a Spanish version of the Mini Linguistic State Examination (MLSE) has recently been introduced.

Polycomb group (PcG) and Trithorax group (TrxG) complexes represent two major components of the epigenetic machinery. This study aimed to delineate phenotypic similarities and differences across developmental conditions arising from rare variants in PcG and TrxG genes, using data-driven approaches. 462 patients with a PcG or TrxG-associated condition were identified in the DECIPHER dataset.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have demonstrated exceptional performance across various image segmentation tasks. However, the process of preparing datasets for training segmentation DNNs is both labor-intensive and costly, as it typically requires pixel-level annotations for each object of interest. To mitigate this challenge, alternative approaches such as using weak labels (e.

Background: EUS-guided fine-needle biopsy is the procedure of choice for the diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Nevertheless, the samples obtained are small and require expertise in pathology, whereas the diagnosis is difficult in view of the scarcity of malignant cells and the important desmoplastic reaction of these tumors. With the help of artificial intelligence, the deep learning architectures produce a fast, accurate, and automated approach for PDAC image segmentation based on whole-slide imaging.
