  • Some people with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) also have a rare skin problem called aquagenic palmoplantar keratoderma, but it's unclear why this happens.
  • Researchers studied the sweat of 25 CF patients and 12 healthy people to find out what proteins were different in their sweat.
  • They found 57 proteins that were different; many were increased in CF patients, suggesting issues with their skin barrier and that this information might help in treating CF better.

Developmental abnormalities provide a unique opportunity to seek for the molecular mechanisms underlying human organogenesis. Esophageal development remains incompletely understood and elucidating causes for esophageal atresia (EA) in humans would contribute to achieve a better comprehension. Prenatal detection, syndromic classification, molecular diagnosis, and prognostic factors in EA are challenging.

This study aimed to perform a systematic review of the guidelines related to palliative sedation for adults in French-speaking countries, taking a synchronic and diachronic approach (current and former guidelines).

Sweat chloride (Cl(-)) measurement is a key step for the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. The coulometric technique is validated in this context by international guidelines. The aim of our study was to evaluate the assay for sweat Cl(-) ions using direct potentiometry on disposable cassette (Spotchem™ SE EL-1520, Elitech-Arkray) by comparing results to those obtained on the same sample, by coulometry (Chloride analyser Sherwood 926S, Dutscher).
