Congenital anomalies in cerebral palsy: Where to from here?

We have identified that CP registers often do not have quality data on congenital anomalies, necessitating linkage with congenital anomaly registers.

Elevated IL-5 and IL-13 responses to egg proteins predate the introduction of egg in solid foods in infants with eczema

Elevated egg-specific Th2 cytokine responses were established prior to egg ingestion at 4months and were not significantly altered by introduction of egg

The genetic associations of acute anterior uveitis and their overlap with the genetics of ankylosing spondylitis

These findings also suggest that variants in ERAP1 have a differential impact on the risk of AAU when compared with AS, and hence the genetic risk for AAU...

Undiagnosed Diseases Network International (UDNI): White paper for global actions to meet patient needs

This white paper discusses the global progress in understanding novel diseases with the aim of encouraging more collaboration between international...

Epigenetics in infectious diseases

Viruses, bacteria, and parasites have developed strategies to invade and establish long-term infections in their hosts.

Insights into the possible role of IFNG and IFNGR1 in Kala-azar and Post Kala-azar Dermal Leishmaniasis in Sudanese patients

Uniformly low expression of IFN and IFNGR1 in PKDL skin biopsies could explain parasite persistence

Will Global Climate Change Alter Fundamental Human Immune Reactivity: Implications for Child Health?

We postulate several mechanisms whereby climate change sensitive exposures and conditions will subtly impair aspects of the human immune response

Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies identifies novel loci that influence cupping and the glaucomatous process

Here, the International Glaucoma Genetics Consortium conducts a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies of vertical cup-disc ratio (VCDR), an...

The correlation between reading and mathematics ability at age twelve has a substantial genetic component

Dissecting how genetic and environmental influences impact on learning is helpful for maximizing numeracy and literacy.
