TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of Parkinson's disease genome-wide association studies using a common set of 7,893,274 variants across 13,708 cases and 95,282 controls.
Abstract: We conducted a meta-analysis of Parkinson's disease genome-wide association studies using a common set of 7,893,274 variants across 13,708 cases and 95,282 controls. Twenty-six loci were identified as having genome-wide significant association; these and 6 additional previously reported loci were then tested in an independent set of 5,353 cases and 5,551 controls. Of the 32 tested SNPs, 24 replicated, including 6 newly identified loci. Conditional analyses within loci showed that four loci, including GBA, GAK-DGKQ, SNCA and the HLA region, contain a secondary independent risk variant. In total, we identified and replicated 28 independent risk variants for Parkinson's disease across 24 loci. Although the effect of each individual locus was small, risk profile analysis showed substantial cumulative risk in a comparison of the highest and lowest quintiles of genetic risk (odds ratio (OR) = 3.31, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.55–4.30; P = 2 × 10−16). We also show six risk loci associated with proximal gene expression or DNA methylation.

TL;DR: Data collected demonstrate that there is a strong association between GBA mutations and Parkinson's disease, and those with a GBA mutation presented earlier with the disease, were more likely to have affected relatives, and were morelikely to have atypical clinical manifestations.
Abstract: Background Recent studies indicate an increased frequency of mutations in the gene encoding glucocerebrosidase (GBA), a deficiency of which causes Gaucher's disease, among patients with Parkinson's disease. We aimed to ascertain the frequency of GBA mutations in an ethnically diverse group of patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods Sixteen centers participated in our international, collaborative study: five from the Americas, six from Europe, two from Israel, and three from Asia. Each center genotyped a standard DNA panel to permit comparison of the genotyping results across centers. Genotypes and phenotypic data from a total of 5691 patients with Parkinson's disease (780 Ashkenazi Jews) and 4898 controls (387 Ashkenazi Jews) were analyzed, with multivariate logistic-regression models and the Mantel–Haenszel procedure used to estimate odds ratios across centers. Results All 16 centers could detect two GBA mutations, L444P and N370S. Among Ashkenazi Jewish subjects, either mutation was found in 15% of p...

TL;DR: Progression‐free survival was significantly longer with avelumab plus axitinib than with sunit inib among patients who received these agents as first‐line treatment for advanced renal‐cell carcinoma.
Abstract: Background In a single-group, phase 1b trial, avelumab plus axitinib resulted in objective responses in patients with advanced renal-cell carcinoma. This phase 3 trial involving previously...

TL;DR: Recent results confirm the prominent role of astrocytes in glutathione metabolism and the defense against reactive oxygen species in brain and suggest an involvement of a compromised astroglial glutATHione system in the oxidative stress reported for neurological disorders.

TL;DR: In this article, linear differential equations in Banach spaces are systematically treated with the help of Laplace transforms, and the central tool is an integrated version of Widder's theorem (characterizing Laplace transform of bounded functions).
Abstract: Linear differential equations in Banach spaces are systematically treated with the help of Laplace transforms. The central tool is an “integrated version” of Widder’s theorem (characterizing Laplace transforms of bounded functions). It holds in any Banach space (whereas the vector-valued version of Widder’s theorem itself holds if and only if the Banach space has the Radon-Nikodým property). The Hille-Yosida theorem and other generation theorems are immediate consequences. The method presented here can be applied to operators whose domains are not dense.
