Genome-wide association studies and candidate gene studies in ulcerative colitis have identified 18 susceptibility loci. We conducted a meta-analysis of six ulcerative colitis genome-wide association study datasets, comprising 6,687 cases and 19,718 controls, and followed up the top association signals in 9,628 cases and 12,917 controls. We identified 29 additional risk loci (P < 5 × 10(-8)), increasing the number of ulcerative colitis-associated loci to 47. After annotating associated regions using GRAIL, expression quantitative trait loci data and correlations with non-synonymous SNPs, we identified many candidate genes that provide potentially important insights into disease pathogenesis, including IL1R2, IL8RA-IL8RB, IL7R, IL12B, DAP, PRDM1, JAK2, IRF5, GNA12 and LSP1...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
S G J Mochrie, A H Mack, L Regan
A transfer matrix method is described for the conformational spread (CS) model of allosteric cooperativity within a one-dimensional arrangement of four-state binding sites. Each such binding site can realize one of two possible conformational states. Each of these states can either bind ligand or not bind ligand. Thus, analytical expressions that are exact within the context of the CS model are derived for the grand partition function, for the mean fraction of binding sites occupied by ligand versus ligand concentration, and for the mean fraction of binding sites in a given allosteric state versus ligand concentration...

OBJECTIVE: To examine differences among various test protocols on the fail rate at hospital discharge for infants in the well-baby nursery (WBN) and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) who received hearing screening through a universal newborn hearing screening demonstration project. DESIGN: The outcomes of several screening protocols were examined. Two technologies were used: transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs) alone or in combination with the auditory brain stem response (ABR)...

OBJECTIVE: To determine the ages of hearing loss identification, hearing aid fitting, and enrollment in early intervention through a multi-center, state-wide universal newborn hearing screening project. DESIGN: Universal newborn hearing screening was conducted at eight hospitals across New York State. All infants who did not bilaterally pass hearing screening before discharge were recalled for outpatient retesting. Inpatient screening and outpatient rescreening were done with transient evoked otoacoustic emissions and/or auditory brain stem response testing...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate outpatient outcome measures of a multi-center, state-wide, universal newborn hearing screening project. DESIGN: Eight hospitals participated in a 3-yr, funded project. Each hospital designed its own protocol using common criteria for judging whether an infant passed a hearing screening. Infants were tested in the hospital, and those either failing the in-hospital screening or who were not tested in the hospital (missed) were asked to return 4 to 6 wk after hospital discharge for outpatient rescreening...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility of universal newborn hearing screening by examining inpatient outcome measures from 8 hospitals located in geographically diverse areas of New York State over a 3-yr period. DESIGN: Funding was provided by the New York State Department of Health to implement predischarge hearing screening programs in the neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and well-baby nurseries (WBNs) of eight hospitals. Various screening protocols including transient evoked otoacoustic emissions alone or in combination with conventional auditory brain stem response or screening auditory brain stem response were implemented by each site...

COMPARATIVE STUDY
D B Elliott, M A Bullimore
PURPOSE: To gather information regarding the reliability, discriminative ability, and validity of disability glare tests. METHODS: The following glare tests were evaluated: the Miller-Nadler, Vistech MCT8000, Berkeley, van den Berg Straylightmeter, and the Brightness Acuity Tester used with the Pelli-Robson and Regan charts. Three test evaluation criteria were used: (1) repeatability--comparing test scores on two visits; (2) discriminative ability--the tests' ability to differentiate between young and old subjects and between old normal and cataract subjects; (3) validity--comparing cataract test scores with the reference standard of the van den Berg Straylightmeter...

REVIEW
P G Berge, A Wilhelm, H Schriewer, G Wüst
Serum-sialyltransferase activity was measured in serum samples of 116 patients with malignant tumors of various origins and different clinical stages using asialo-fetuin as the acceptor and cytidine-5'-mono-phospho[14C]sialic acid as the donor. Only patients with metastatic tumors had significantly elevated serum-sialyltransferase levels. Increased enzyme activity was also associated with rheumatoid arthritis and with acute hepatitis, whereas no significant alteration of enzyme activity was observed in cystic fibrosis patients...

COMPARATIVE STUDY

Sialyltransferase (ST) activity was examined in tumor and control tissues. Within each group of control tissues a wide variation in the levels of ST activity was observed. Only in 20% of the tumors was the ST activity above the range of enzyme activity of the corresponding group of control tissues. Compared with its corresponding normal counterpart from the same individual, ST was elevated in tumor tissue by a factor of 2.1 on average. The distribution function indicates an increase in enzyme activity in 74% of the tumors...
