• A rare case of congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) due to dual genetic aetiology involving HNF4A and ABCC8 

  Houghton, Jayne (De Gruyter, 2019-03-26)

  Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) occurs due to an unregulated insulin secretion from the pancreatic β-cells resulting in hypoglycaemia. Causative mutations in multiple genes have been reported. Phenotypic variability exists ...

• Systematic review of definitions and outcome measures for return of bowel function after gastrointestinal surgery. 

  Vallance, A E (Wiley, 2018-10)

• Phenotypic variability in two siblings with monogenic diabetes due to the same ABCC8 gene mutation 

  Houghton, Jayne (Wiley, 2019-02-07)

  ABCC8 gene mutations with different inheritance patterns have been well described to cause transient and permanent forms of neonatal diabetes with onset of hyperglycaemia commonly before the age of 6 months, and rare cases ...

• De novo DDX3X missense variants in males appear viable and contribute to syndromic intellectual disability 

  Rankin, Julia (Wiley, 2019-04)

  DDX3X (Xp11.4) encodes a DEAD-box RNA helicase that escapes X chromosome inactivation. Pathogenic variants in DDX3X have been shown to cause X-linked intellectual disability (ID) (MRX102, MIM: 300958). The phenotypes ...

• Clinical Events After Deferral of LAD Revascularization Following Physiological Coronary Assessment 

  Sharp, Andrew (Elsevier, 2019-02-05)

  Physicians are not always comfortable deferring treatment of a stenosis in the left anterior descending (LAD) artery because of the perception that there is a high risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). The authors ...

• Systemic agents for psoriasis and their relevance to primary care 

  Hunt, William; Frow, Helen (Royal College of General Practitioners, 2019-02)

• Genetic risk variants for brain disorders are enriched in cortical H3K27ac domains 

  Mill, Jonathan (BioMed Central, 2019-01)

  Most variants associated with complex phenotypes in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) do not directly index coding changes affecting protein structure. Instead they are hypothesized to influence gene regulation, with ...

• Peri-operative and oncological outcomes of radical prostatectomy for high-risk prostate cancer in the UK: an analysis of surgeon reported data
