The most common cardiovascular complication is aortic root dilatation which untreated can lead to life-threatening aortic root dissection, mainly occurring in adult patients

BackgroundAccurate tumor volume estimation is important for evaluating the response to radionuclide therapy and external beam radiotherapy as well as to other pharmaceuticals. A common method for monitoring the growth of subcutaneous tumors in pre-clinical models and assessing the treatment response is to measure the tumor length and width by external calipers to estimate its volume. This procedur

When people talk about kinship systems, they often use co-speech gestures and other representations to elaborate. This paper investigates such polysemiotic (spoken, gestured, and drawn) descriptions of kinship relations, to see if they display recurring patterns of conventionalization that capture specific social structures. We present an exploratory hypothesis-generating study of descriptions pro

This thesis explores the evolution of Canadian child welfare policies through a historical lens, focusing on the impact of colonial legacies on Indigenous communities.

Conservative treatment is rarely successful. Diagnostic difficulties and comorbidities limiting the possibilities for radical surgical treatment options (i e pelvic exenteration) for urorectal fistulas ar

Increasing recognition of germline DDX41 variants in patients with hematological malignancies prompted us to provide DDX41-specific recommendations for diagnosis, surveillance, and treatment. Causative germline variants in the DDX41 predispose to the development of myeloid neoplasms (MNs), especially myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Almost 3%–5% of all patients with
