Kestle, John R. W. | Potentially useful outcome measures for clinical research in pediatric neurosurgery | The choice of outcome (or outcomes) and their measurement are critical for a sound clinical trial. Surgeons have traditionally measured simple outcomes such as death, duration of survival, or tumor recurrence but have recently developed more sophisticated measures of the effect of an intervention. M... | Pediatric neurosurgery | 2005 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Fundamental cellular processes do not require vertebrate-specific sequences within the TATA-binding protein. | The 180-amino acid core of the TATA-binding protein (TBPcore) is conserved from Archae bacteria to man. Vertebrate TBPs contain, in addition, a large and highly conserved N-terminal region that is not found in other phyla. We have generated a line of mice in which the tbp allele is replaced with a v... | Mice, Knockout; Cells, Cultured; Fibroblasts; Embryo | 2003-02-21 |

Lopansri, Bert; Stoddard, Gregory J.; Hobbs, Maurine R.; Granger, Donald Lee | Elevated plasma phenylalanine in severe malaria and implications for pathophysiology of neurological complications. | Cerebral malaria is associated with decreased production of nitric oxide and decreased levels of its precursor, l-arginine. Abnormal amino acid metabolism may thus be an important factor in malaria pathogenesis. We sought to determine if other amino acid abnormalities are associated with disease sev... | Dystonia; Phenylalanine Hydroxylase; Tyrosine | 2006-06-01 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Hox group 3 paralogous genes act synergistically in the formation of somitic and neural crest-derived structures. | Hox genes encode transcription factors that are used to regionalize the mammalian embryo. Analysis of mice carrying targeted mutations in individual and multiple Hox genes is beginning to reveal a complex network of interactions among these closely related genes which is responsible for directing th... | Abnormalities, Multiple; Gene Targeting; Glossopharyngeal Nerve; Mice, Knockout; Morphogenesis | 1997-12-15 |

Schmidt, Meic H. | Lumbosacral ependymomas: a review of the management of intradural and extradural tumors | Object. The goal of this study was to review the management of intra- and extradural ependymomas. Spinal ependymomas most commonly occur as intramedullary tumors throughout the spinal axis. In the lumbosacral region, ependymomas are most commonly associated with the conus medullaris and cauda equina... | Intradural ependymoma; Extradural ependymoma; Lumbosacral lesion | 2003 |
