Elimination Disorder
Resources for Patients and Caregivers
Elimination disorders all involve the inappropriate elimination of urine or feces and are usually first diagnosed in childhood or adolescence. This group of disorders includes enuresis, the repeated voiding of urine into inappropriate places, and encopresis, the repeated passage of feces into inappropriate places.

- Prognosis of ischemic stroke predicted by machine learning based on multi-modal MRI radiomicsby Huan Yu on January 26, 2023
CONCLUSION: The ML models based on muti-modal MRI radiomics are of high value for predicting clinical outcomes in acute stroke patients.
- An HPA-1a-positive platelet-depleting agent for prevention of fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia: a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center, phase 1/2 proof-of-concept studyby Christof Geisen on January 25, 2023
CONCLUSION: These data support the hypothesis that anti-HPA-1a could be used as prophylaxis in women at risk of having an FNAIT-affected pregnancy.
- Information-Rich, Dual-Function 13C/2H-Isotopic Crosstalk NMR Assay for Human Serine Racemase (hSR) Provides a PLP-Enzyme "Partitioning Fingerprint" and Reveals Disparate Chemotypes for hSR Inhibitionby Stephany M Ramos de Dios on January 25, 2023
The first dual-function assay for human serine racemase (hSR), the only bona fide racemase in human biology, is reported. The hSR racemization function is essential for neuronal signaling, as the product, d-serine (d-Ser), is a potent N-methyl d-aspartate (NMDA) coagonist, important for learning and memory, with dysfunctional d-Ser-signaling being observed in some neuronal disorders. The second hSR function is β-elimination and gives pyruvate; this activity is elevated in colorectal cancer. This...
- Microglial heterogeneity and complement component 3 elimination within emerging multisensory midbrain compartments during an early critical periodby Julianne B Carroll on January 23, 2023
The lateral cortex of the inferior colliculus (LCIC) is a midbrain shell region that receives multimodal inputs that target discrete zones of its compartmental (modular-matrix) framework. This arrangement emerges perinatally in mice (postnatal day, P0-P12) as somatosensory and auditory inputs segregate into their respective modular and matrix terminal patterns. Microglial cells (MGCs) perform a variety of critical functions in the developing brain, among them identifying areas of active circuit...
