概括
儿童出生时咖啡牛奶斑点 (CALM) 的数量可以预测神经纤维素瘤类型1 (NF1) 的严重程度. 更多的CALM与更高的NF1概率和增加状神经纤维瘤风险相关.
科学领域:
- 遗传学和基因组学 遗传学和基因组学
- 皮肤病学 皮肤病学
- 儿科医学 儿科医学
背景情况:
- 神经纤维素瘤类型1 (NF1) 是一种遗传性疾病,具有多种症状和瘤风险.
- 咖啡牛奶斑 (CALM) 是诊断NF1的早期指标,六个或更多的病变通常足以诊断.
- 在NF1患者出生时存在的CALM的预后意义需要进一步调查.
研究的目的:
- 评估出生时观察到的咖啡牛奶斑块 (CALMs) 的预后价值,在患有神经纤维素瘤类型1 (NF1) 的个体中.
- 确定出生时CALM数量与NF1.1的可能性和严重程度之间的相关性.
- 评估出生时CALM与特定NF1相关并发症的发展之间的关联,例如plexiform神经纤维瘤.
主要方法:
- 对2020年至2021年间诊断的4岁及以上的患者进行了回顾性分析.
- 收集了出生时CALM的存在和数量的数据,以及其他NF1临床特征.
- 确保所有被纳入的患者至少有四年的随访期.
主要成果:
- 在208名评估患者中,有147人确诊NF1.
- 出生时没有CALM并不排除NF1诊断.
- 出生时较多的CALM与NF1的可能性增加 (高达95%的≥5个斑点) 和plexiform神经纤维瘤的更大患病率 (p <0.001) 强烈相关.
结论:
- 出生时CALM的数量可以作为NF1.1更严重表现的潜在指标.
- 出生时CALM的增加与患有plexiform神经纤维瘤的风险更高有关.
- 对患有多种CALM的婴儿进行全面评估对于早期NF1诊断,管理和随访至关重要.

3.0K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.

3.2K
Immunoglobulin-like cell adhesion molecules or Ig-CAMs are a versatile group of cell surface glycoproteins belonging to the immunoglobulin protein superfamily. Ig-CAMs possess the characteristic immunoglobulin protein domains and other domains such as the fibronectin type III domain. The Ig domains are glycosylated to varying degrees in different Ig-CAMs.
Ig-CAMs exhibit either homophilic binding (to other Ig-CAMs) or heterophilic binding (to other ligands such as integrins). While most Ig-CAMs...
