Mendelian forms of human hypertension and mechanisms of disease.
Mendelian forms of hypertension have ushered in a revolution in our knowledge of blood pressure and volume regulation. If we include information on syndromes involving low blood pressure, this knowledge base is doubled. Glucocorticoid remediable aldosteronism, apparent mineralocorticoid excess, and mutations in the mineralocorticoid receptor gene have given us brilliant insights into mineraloco...
متن کاملMendelian genes for Parkinson's disease contribute to the sporadic forms of the disease.
Parkinson's disease (PD) can be divided into familial (Mendelian) and sporadic forms. A number of causal genes have been discovered for the Mendelian form, which constitutes 10-20% of the total cases. Genome-wide association studies have successfully uncovered a number of susceptibility loci for sporadic cases but those only explain a small fraction (6-7%) of PD heritability. It has been observ...
متن کاملAutomatic, unsupervised classification of dyskinesia in patients with Parkinsons Disease
One of the characteristic symptoms of patients with Parkinson Disease (PD) is a rigidity of movement. These symptoms disappear after administration of Levodopa. However, the long-term use of levodopa causes involuntary movements (dyskinesia). A proper diagnosis requires an automatic, unsupervised method for the detection and classification of levodopa induced dyskinesia. The main problem, howev...
متن کاملGenomic contributions to Mendelian disease.
Genomic research has two quite distinct faces. On the one hand, it produces large, curated, reference data sets through numerous networks of investigators for community use—although this aspect has great and widespread utility, it does not inspire per se. On the other hand, it allows an unbiased genome-wide view that is exciting precisely because it habitually uncovers biology that we were hope...
متن کاملManual Therapy Choices: A General Approach to Parkinsons Disease
In treating dysfunction, it is normal for most therapists to use a variety of modalities and methods including myofascial release, muscle-energy techniques, positional-release techniques and many more. The assumption must be that different tools achieve different effects, and the ones we choose reflect our perception as to the needs of the individual and/or of the tissues involved. Sledgehammer...
