Ware,Stephanie M. Ware,Jill V. Hunter,Jill V. Hunter,Susan D. Fernbach,Susan D. Fernbach,Georgirene D. Vladutiu,Lee-Jun C. Wong,Hannes Vogel +18 more
TL;DR: This study gives strong support to the view that in patients with RC defects, cardiomyopathy is more common than previously thought and tends to follow a different and more severe clinical course.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soluble TNF-α receptor 1 and IL-6 plasma levels in humans subjected to the sleep deprivation model of spaceflight
William T. Shearer,James M. Reuben,Janet Mullington,Nicholas J. Price,Bang Ning Lee,E. O'Brian Smith,Martin P. Szuba,Hans P. A. Van Dongen,David F. Dinges +8 more
TL;DR: Total sleep loss produced significant increases in plasma levels of sTNF-alpha RI and IL-6, messengers that connect the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems, suggesting that naps may serve as the basis for a countermeasures approach to prolonged spaceflight.
Journal ArticleDOI
Body composition during the first 2 years of life: an updated reference.
TL;DR: These normative body composition data provide an updated reference upon which to assess normal growth and nutritional status of pediatric populations representative of mixed feeding groups during the first 2 y of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of cardiac growth on Doppler tissue imaging velocities: a study in healthy children.
Benjamin W. Eidem,Colin J. McMahon,Radha R Cohen,Jin Wu,Irina Finkelshteyn,John P. Kovalchin,Nancy A. Ayres,Louis I. Bezold,E. O'Brian Smith,Ricardo H. Pignatelli +9 more
TL;DR: In healthy children, parameters of cardiac growth, most notably left ventricular end-diastolic dimension, have the most significant correlation with the majority of DTI velocities, whereas sex, heart rate, and other echocardiographic parameters demonstrated minimal or no correlation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of mutation type and X chromosome inactivation on Rett syndrome phenotypes
Ruthie E. Amir,Ignatia B. Van den Veyver,Rebecca J. Schultz,Denise M. Malicki,Charles Q. Tran,E. J. R. Dahle,Anne Philippi,László Timar,Alan K. Percy,Kathleen J. Motil,Olivier Lichtarge,E. O'Brian Smith,Daniel G. Glaze,Huda Y. Zoghbi +13 more
TL;DR: The association of early truncating mutations with nonrandom XCI, along with the fact that chimeric mice lacking methyl‐CpG‐binding protein 2 (MeCP2) function die during embryogenesis, supports the notion that RTT is caused by partial loss of MeCP2 function.
