In the present issue of Circulation, Seeger et al6 report that chronic activation of NMD is the underlying mechanism by which truncating mutations in MYBPC3, encoding cMyBP-C (cardiac myosin-binding protein C), cause molecular abnormalities associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

To evaluate the effect of non‐dispensing pharmacists (NDPs) integrated in general practice on medication‐related hospitalisations, drug burden index and costs in patients at high risk of medication problems (being 65 years or older and using 5 or more chronic medications).

Strongyloides stercoralis can cause disease that ranges from asymptomatic chronic infection to fatal hyperinfection.

Materials and Methods: The stratum corneum hydration, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), pH, erythema, melanin, sebum, friction, temperature, elasticity parameters (R0, R2, and R5), the thickness and echo-density of epidermis, dermis, and subepidermal low-echogenic band (SLEB) were measured on lesional, perilesional, and symmetrical skin of 22 chronic dermatitis patients.

METHODS Chart review of successive cases presenting with unilateral chronic conjunctivitis with positive cultures and a retained contact lens.
