A Normal FGF23 Does Not Preclude Tumor‐Induced Osteomalacia

Use of Standard Form Does Not Preclude TILA Violation

Impaired face recognition does not preclude intact whole face perception

We studied intact and impaired processes in a prosopagnosic patient (RP). In Experiment 1, RP showed an inversion superiority effect with both faces and objects, with better performance when stimuli were presented upside down than in normal upright orientation. In Experiment 2, we studied the effect of face configuration directly by comparing matching performance with normal vs. scrambled faces...

Severe intellectual disability does not preclude renal transplantation.

BACKGROUND Intellectual disability (ID) in patients with chronic kidney disease is a relative contraindication for kidney transplantation. METHODS We analysed a retrospective cohort of 16 recipients of kidney transplantation with ID and 83 controls. RESULTS Graft survival at 5 years was similar between patients (81.2%) and controls (80.2%), P = 0.9. Patient survival at 5 years was lower amo...

Does omentoplasty preclude cardiac retransplantation?

Cloning and characterization of FGF23 as a causative factor of tumor-induced osteomalacia.

Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is one of the paraneoplastic diseases characterized by hypophosphatemia caused by renal phosphate wasting. Because removal of responsible tumors normalizes phosphate metabolism, an unidentified humoral phosphaturic factor is believed to be responsible for this syndrome. To identify the causative factor of TIO, we obtained cDNA clones that were abundantly express...
