Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a rare neurometabolic disease caused by mutations in the gene, which encodes for the peroxisomal very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) transporter. It is a debilitating disorder, which has a spectrum of clinical presentations. Since the accumulation of VLCFAs are a common feature of all ALD pathologies, we developed a substrate reduction therapy for ALD in the form of an inhibitor of Elovl1, the lipid elongase responsible for the generation of VLCFAs.

Current management relies on sulfonylureas or insulin therapy, but these fail to address the underlying genetic defect. Recent research has elucidated the molecular mechanisms of MODY10, including ER stress induced by proinsulin misfolding, activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR), and β-cell apoptosis.

Quantitative MRI (qMRI) refers to a class of MRI methods for quantifying the spatial distribution of biological tissue parameters. Traditional qMRI methods usually deal separately with artifacts arising from accelerated data acquisition, involuntary physical motion, and magnetic field inhomogeneities, leading to sub-optimal end-to-end performance. This paper presents CoRRECT, a unified deep unfolding (DU) framework for qMRI consisting of a model-based end-to-end neural network, a method for motion artifact reduction, and a self-supervised learning scheme.

Background: Incidence of iatrogenic upper eyelid retraction (UER) caused by blepharoptosis overcorrection and improper blepharoplasty is increasing fast among Eastern Asians. The aim of this study is to present our experience using techniques of pretarsal cicatrix release, recession of levator-Müller's muscle complex, and lengthening of levator-Müller's muscle complex to correct mild to severe UER, and evaluate their anesthetic surgical outcomes.
Methods: Patients with UER who underwent surgical repair using the stepwise management strategy from December 2018 to June 2022 were retrospectively reviewed.
