Identification of Houge type of X-linked syndromic mental retardation caused by CNKSR2 truncated variants by Si-Hua Chang, Jie-Yuan Jin, Yi-Qiao Hu, Run-Yan Wang, Rong Xiang, Xia Wang

“…Results In this study, we reported two Chinese boys with MRXSHG and described some rare MRXSHG phenotypes, such as delayed bone age, slightly widened right fissure, and an underdeveloped right temporal lobe, characterized by reduced growth and volume compared to typical development. Two novel variants in CNKSR2 (c.1658-3_1676del and c.1102G > T, p.Gly368*) were identified in these cases. …”

The Impact of Surgical Trauma, BMI and Analgesics Intake on Postoperative Pain after Periapical Surgery in the Anterior Maxillary Region by Jure Martinić, Lidija Gavić, Antonija Tadin, Ante Mihovilović, Petra Stazić, Daniel Jerković

“…The duration of the operation correlated negatively with the intensity of pain and the consumption of analgesics after the operation (P<0.05). The volume, height and width of the alveolar bone defect after the operation did not significantly influence the intensity of pain and the consumption of analgesics in the postoperative period (P>0.05). …”

A new computational framework for simulating airway resistance, fraction of exhaled nitric oxide, and diffusing capacity for nitric oxide. by Benoit Haut, Cyril Karamaoun, Clément Rigaut

“…Our approach is firstly based on a realistic representation of the geometry of healthy lungs as a function of body mass, which compares well with data from the literature, particularly in terms of lung volume and alveolar surface area. The original way in which this geometry is created, including an individual definition of the airways in the first seven generations of the lungs, makes it possible to consider the heterogeneous nature of the lungs in terms of perfusion and ventilation. …”
