Absence of islet autoantibodies and modestly raised glucose values at diabetes diagnosis should lead to testing for MODY: lessons from a 5 year pediatric Swedish national cohort study
(American Diabetes Association, 2020-01)Identifying maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) in pediatric populations close to diabetes diagnosis is difficult. Misdiagnosis and unnecessary insulin treatment are common. We aimed to identify the discriminatory ... -

Action observation for sensorimotor learning in surgery.
(Wiley, 2018-09-27)Acquiring new motor skills to learn complex movements and master the use of a diverse range of instruments is fundamental for developing expertise in surgery. Although aspects of skill development occur through trial and ... -
Activating germline mutations in STAT3 cause early-onset multi-organ autoimmune disease.
(Nature, 2014-08)Monogenic causes of autoimmunity provide key insights into the complex regulation of the immune system. We report a new monogenic cause of autoimmunity resulting from de novo germline activating STAT3 mutations in five ... -
An Activating STAT3 Mutation Causes Neonatal Diabetes through Premature Induction of Pancreatic Differentiation.
(Cell Press, 2017-04-11)Activating germline mutations in STAT3 were recently identified as a cause of neonatal diabetes mellitus associated with beta-cell autoimmunity. We have investigated the effect of an activating mutation, STAT3(K392R), on ... -
ACTN1-related thrombocytopenia: identification of novel families for phenotypic characterization
(Blood, 2015-01-29)Inherited thrombocytopenias (ITs) are a heterogeneous group of syndromic and nonsyndromic diseases caused by mutations affecting different genes. Alterations of ACTN1, the gene encoding for alpha-actinin 1, have recently ... -
Actuator pin fracture in magnetically controlled growing rods: two cases.
(Elsevier, 2015-12-17)Magnetically-controlled growing rods (MCGR) are used in the management of early-onset scoliosis (EOS). Each MCGR contains a telescopic actuator that serves as the distraction element when stimulated by an external remote ... -
Acute appendicitis
(Elsevier, 2017-08)Appendicitis is defined as inflammation of the vermiform appendix, the most common surgical emergency in children and young adults with abdominal pain. The current standard of care for patients with appendicitis is the ... -
Acute bronchodilator responses decline progressively over 4 years in patients with moderate to very severe COPD.
(BioMed Central, 2014-08-31)We previously reported a progressive decline in absolute responses of FEV1 and FVC to a near-maximal dose of 2 different short-acting bronchodilators over 4 years. Since varying host factors and the method of expressing ... -
Acute calcific deposition in the lateral collateral ligament of the knee.
(Thieme, 2013-12)We present a rare case of a patient presenting with acute onset knee pain, which was subsequently diagnosed and treated as acute calcific deposition in the lateral collateral ligament. A 51-year-old gentleman presented to ... -
Acute double flexor tendon ruptures following injection of collagenase clostridium histolyticum (Xiapex) for Dupuytren's contracture.
(BMJ, 2014)We report a case of acute (24 h) double flexor tendon rupture of the little finger after a single injection of collagenase clostridium histolyticum into a palmar Dupuytren's contracture cord which caused metacarpophalangeal ... -
