To read the full abstract: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2019;116:21401–21408.This prospective diagnostic study used desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) to classify thyroid nodules by their metabolic signature, and more precisely their lipid profile. DESI-MS is a technique using charged aerosols of microdroplets which are sprayed onto a surface (e.g. tissue) to desorb and ionize molecules which are then analyzed by MS...

J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2020 Jun 1;105(6):dgaa131. doi: 10.1210/clinem/dgaa131. PMID: 32170311Genetic control of height has been widely explored using genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in multi-ethnic populations (1-4). Although familial short stature (FSS) is the most common type of short stature, its genetic profile and impact on bone metabolism remains to be investigated. This GWAS...

PMID: 34663987.Brief Summary: This clinical study characterised the spectrum of novel diabetes phenotypes due to mutations in the Transcription factor One Cut Homeobox 1 (ONECUT1)/hepatocyte nuclear factor 6 (HNF6). The study uncovers novel forms of diabetes mellitus due to mutations in ONECUT1.<p cl...
