Lower Respiratory Tract Infections and Orofacial Clefts: A Prospective Cohort Study From the Japan Environment and Children’s Study

TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined whether infants with orofacial clefts were associated with lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) and found that cleft infants were more likely to develop LRTIs.
Dissertation

Determining the role of GABAergic signaling in the craniofacial development of larval zebrafish

TL;DR: This paper aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, as to provide real-time information about concrete mechanical properties such as E-modulus and compressive strength.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detecting Gene-Environment Interaction for Maternal Exposures Using Case-Parent Trios Ascertained Through a Case With Non-Syndromic Orofacial Cleft.

TL;DR: In this article, case-parent trios ascertained through a proband with a non-syndromic orofacial cleft (OFC) were used to test for possible gene-environment (G × E) interaction between genome-wide markers (both observed and imputed) and self-reported maternal exposure to smoking, alcohol consumption, and multivitamin supplementation during pregnancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supportive medication in cancer during pregnancy

TL;DR: This review aims to provide a précis of the current literature regarding both safety and efficacy of all categories of supportive medication during pregnancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lower respiratory tract infections and orofacial clefts: a prospective cohort study from the Japan Environment and Children's Study.

TL;DR: In this article, a prospective cohort study used data from the Japan Environment and Children's Study, whose baseline recruitment was conducted during 2011-2014, to examine whether infants with orofacial clefts were associated with LRTIs.

Retinoic Acid Embryopathy

TL;DR: It is possible that a major mechanism of isotretinoin teratogenesis is a deleterious effect on cephalic neural-crest cell activity that results in the observed craniofacial, cardiac, and thymic malformations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apaf1 (CED-4 homolog) regulates programmed cell death in mammalian development.

TL;DR: It is suggested that Apaf1 is essential for Casp3 activation in embryonic brain and is a key regulator of developmental programmed cell death in mammals.

Clinical manifestations in 105 persons with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.

TL;DR: The frequency of the clinical and radiological anomalies in Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome in a large population of US patients is delineated and guidelines for diagnosis and management are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transforming growth factor-β3 is required for secondary palate fusion

TL;DR: This result demonstrates that TGF–β3 affects palatal shelf fusion by an intrinsic, primary mechanism rather than by effects secondary to craniofacial defects.
