Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) 1, 2, 3 and 6 are the most common, autosomal dominantly inherited cerebellar degenerations. And in the Chinese population, the most common SCA is SCA3 and the frequency of SCA 3 among SCA patients is 72.5%, followed by SCA 2 that the frequency is 12% among SCA …
Comparison of the Healing Properties on Corneal Cells of Groth Factor-enriched Plasma and Autologous Serum From Aniridia Patients
Keratopathy of patients with aniridia leads to epithelial scarring disorders and a progressive clouding of the cornea linked to this abnormal healing (fibrosis). Treatment with autologous serum is usually undertaken to promote epithelial healing. However, autologous serum does not prevent the formation of fibrosis, whereas growth factor-rich plasma appears to …
Activation of the Contact System and the Immune System in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease.
Patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis (HD) are burdened with extremely high mortality rates (15% per year) and during the early stage (≤120days) the mortality rate is even higher (27% per year). Cardiovascular complications and bloodstream infections (BSIs) account for the vast majority of deaths in HD patients. In …

Cardiometabolic Health and Inflammatory Resolution
The aim of this study is to determine how inflammatory resolution impacts cardiometabolic health and disease in subjects that are either lean (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2) or obese (>30.0 kg/m2).
United States Hypophosphatasia Molecular Research Center
This study is being done to determine if cryptic alterations exist within or near to the ALPL gene in patients with a clinical diagnosis of hypophosphatasia, but without identifiable alteration on commercial testing.

Perinatal Transmission of MDR Bacteria
We aim to conduct a prospective surveillance study of mothers and their infants born vaginally or by scheduled C-section and who are admitted to Northwestern Medicine Prentice Women's Hospital to determine the prevalence of ESBL-E carriage in healthy post-partum women and the transmission rate of these strains to their infants. …
Expression of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition Associated Markers in Peri-implant Tissues
Peri-implantitis is an inflammation of bacterial etiology characterized by inflammation of mucous membranes and bone loss around the dental implant. A specific dental plaque bacteria could stimulate host cells, including the junctional epithelium, to secrete a range of pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in initiating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. EMT has …
