Background: gene mutations related to hearing loss patients can obtain good hearing and speech rehabilitation effects after cochlear implantation (CI).

Objective: To explore the long-term rehabilitative outcomes of CI in patients with different mutation groups.

Material And Methods: Clinical data of 71 patients with gene mutations who received CI in the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from 2012 to 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. According to the genetic test results, use One-way ANOVA analysis to compare the differences in auditory results, categories of auditory performance (CAP) and speech intelligibility rating (SIR) index questionnaire scores and speech recognition rates among different groups in 4-5 years after CI.

Result: Compared with other genotypes of , the patients with homozygous mutation of c.919-2A > G in had better hearing aid threshold at 500 Hz and better recognition rates of Yangyang words than other monoallelic mutation groups after CI ( < .05).

Conclusions And Significance: The most common hot spot mutation of gene is c.919-2A > G. The patients with homozygous mutation of c.919-2A > G in gene had partly better hearing and speech rehabilitation than other monoallelic mutation groups after CI.

Plants possess remarkably durable resistance against non-adapted pathogens in nature. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this resistance remain poorly understood, and it is unclear how the resistance is maintained without coevolution between hosts and the non-adapted pathogens. In this study, we used Phytophthora sojae (Ps), a non-adapted pathogen of N.

BACKGROUND Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare (1: 1 000 000) autosomal dominant congenital skeletal dysplasia characterized by widely patent calvarial sutures, clavicular hypoplasia, supernumerary teeth, and short stature. Only a minority of the cases are diagnosed early after birth. We present another case of proven CCD presenting with typical neonatal phenotype to promote awareness of this rare disorder.

Background: Basal cell nevus syndrome, also known as Gorlin or Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, is a hereditary condition caused by mutation in the PATCHED gene. The syndrome presents with a wide range of clinical manifestations, including basal cell carcinomas, jaw cysts, and skeletal anomalies. Diagnosis is based on specific criteria, and treatment typically includes surgical removal of basal cell carcinomas.

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) is an important zoonotic pathogenic virus, which poses serious threats to public health. MPXV infection can be prevented by immunization against the variola virus. Because of the safety risks and side effects of vaccination with live vaccinia virus (VACV) strain Tian Tan (VTT), we constructed two gene-deleted VTT recombinants (TTVAC7 and TTVC5).

Pseudogenization of the Slc23a4 gene is necessary for the survival of Xdh-deficient mice.

In most patients with type 1 xanthinuria caused by mutations in the xanthine dehydrogenase gene (XDH), no clinical complications, except for urinary stones, are observed. In contrast, all Xdh(- / -) mice die due to renal failure before reaching adulthood at 8 weeks of age. Hypoxanthine or xanthine levels become excessive and thus toxic in Xdh(- / -) mice because enhancing the activity of hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT), which is an enzyme that uses hypoxanthine as a substrate, slightly increases the life span of these mice.
