Abstract

Abstract Background Variants in the GJB2 gene encoding the gap junction protein connexin‐26 (Cx26) can cause autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss or a variety of phenotypically variable autosomal dominant disorders that effect skin and hearing, such as palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) with deafness and keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness (KID) syndrome. Here, we report a patient with chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, hyperkeratosis with resorption of the finger tips, profound bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, and normal hair and ocular examination. Exome analysis identified a novel missense variant in GJB2 (NM_004004.5:c.101T>A, p.Met34Lys) that was inherited from a mosaic unaffected parent in the setting of a well‐reported GJB2 loss of function variant (NM_004004.5:c.35delG, p.Gly12Valfs*2) on the other allele. Method Rat epidermal keratinocytes were transfected with cDNA encoding wildtype Cx26 and/or the Met34Lys mutant of Cx26. Fixed cells were immunolabeled in order to assess the subcellular location of the Cx26 mutant and cell images were captured. Results Expression in rat epidermal keratinocytes revealed that the Met34Lys mutant was retained in the endoplasmic reticulum, unlike wildtype Cx26, and failed to reach the plasma membrane to form gap junctions. Additionally, the Met34Lys mutant acted dominantly to wildtype Cx26, restricting its delivery to the cell surface. Conclusion Overall, we show the p.Met34Lys variant is a novel dominant acting variant causing PPK with deafness. The presence of a loss a function variant on the other allele creates a more severe clinical phenotype, with some features reminiscent of KID syndrome.

Abstract

Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma is classified as a locally aggressive vascular tumor of childhood resulting from abnormal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. Most commonly, KHE presents as a single tissue mass, ranging from an erythematous papule to a violaceous indurated tumor. Definitive diagnosis requires tissue sampling with the demonstration of ill-defined nodules and fascicles of spindle-shaped D2-40 positive endothelial cells, forming slit-like vascular channels. This newborn presented with multifocal cutaneous Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma associated with Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon confirmed on histopathology with immunostaining.

Abstract

Administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) to patients with Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) has been controversial. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of IVIG, systemic corticosteroids, or both in treating Mycoplasma pneumoniae-associated SJS (mpSJS). Retrospective series of 10 pediatric mpSJS cases were stratified into four treatment groups: IVIG alone, IVIG and systemic corticosteroids together, systemic corticosteroids alone, and supportive care. The efficacy of therapy was evaluated on the basis of several proxies of disease severity, including hospital length of stay (LOSt ) and number of febrile days (Febt ) after initiation of therapy. Patients treated with IVIG alone had a longer LOSt and more Febt , despite different baseline characteristics, than patients treated with supportive therapy. Of patients who received IVIG, 50% were treated with corticosteroids concurrently and had similar characteristics of disease severity but showed a non-statistically significant trend toward shorter LOSt and fewer Febt than those who received IVIG alone. A patient treated with corticosteroids alone had the shortest LOSt in this series. Therefore treatment with IVIG alone was associated with a more severe disease course than supportive therapy, although causality cannot be inferred given possible confounding by indication. When systemic corticosteroids were used alone or in conjunction with IVIG, hospital LOSt and Febt trended lower than with the use of IVIG alone, although disease severity at baseline was similar between those treated with IVIG and corticosteroids concurrently and those treated with IVIG alone. It was thus concluded that treatment with systemic corticosteroids as monotherapy or in combination with IVIG may be preferable to IVIG alone. Further large-scale studies are warranted to evaluate this hypothesis.

Subjects
Indians of North America--Religion, Freedom of religion--United States
Abstract

First Published in 1999. For This Land, edited and with an introduction by James Treat, brings together over thirty years of the work of Vine Deloria, Jr., regarded as one of the most important living Native American figures. For three decades, Deloria has offered substantive and persistent contributions to understanding the complexity of religion in America. In uis writings he recognizes the spiritual desperation and religious breakdown in the contemporary situation, and provides the groundwork to get people to examine what they actually believe and how they must put those beliefs into practice. The essays in this collection express Deloria's concern for the religious dimensions and implications of human existence. His writings are engaged within a theoretical system of physical, not ideological, space, and ultimately give voice to this intellectual passion by calling into question our controversial religious institutions, commitments, worldviews, freedoms and experiences. For This Land offers a distinctive approach to comprehending human existence from one of the leading critics of mainstream American thought.

Abstract

A storm was brewing over Winnipeg. The cold north wind rolling off the Canadian shield whistled an eerie tune, erasing any doubts about the arrival of winter. Office workers scurried along sidewalks and ducked into entryways without lingering for Monday-morning gossip. This seasonal turn had convinced pedestrians to move at a quicker pace but it was having the opposite effect on mechanized transport; schedule delays were already being announced at the local airport, where a couple of native spiritual leaders were expected on flights from the south. Bob Thomas, Ian MacKenzie, and Wilf Pelletier watched and waited for the skies to clear, anxious to receive these last two delegates so they could begin their planned meeting. Someone in the welcoming party voiced his fear that this bad weather was the work of tribal conjurers, who might be using malevolent powers to thwart their effort at ecumenical organizing. Interreligious conversation can be a risky venture.1

Abstract

Hundreds of mourners stood in solemn repose as the blanketed coffin was lowered into the ground. Pallbearers lined both sides of the grave; all were leaders of the American Indian Movement, and each wore a four-color armband matching the stripes of the white trade blanket. As soon as the coffin had settled into place, they offered a raised-fist salute to their fallen comrade, then cut off their armbands and threw half into the tomb. Journalists tracked the committal service, photographers and cameramen elbowing their way through the crowd in search of the elusive angle. When it was over Nelson and Florence Small Legs said goodbye to their eldest son one last time, then turned and walked away, embracing as they wept.1

Abstract

A roomful of devout Christians had come under conviction. “I suggest to you that you pursue conversion,” Dave Courchene told his well-dressed audience of Anglican clergy and lay leaders: “Conversion of the church from passive observers of the plight of the underprivileged to active participants in the fight for social progress.” The energetic president of the Manitoba Indian Brotherhood, a prominent native political organization, was speaking to delegates assembled for the twenty-fourth General Synod of the Anglican Church of Canada. It was August 20, 1969, the third day of their periodic national gathering, which was being held this year in Sudbury, Ontario. General Synod organizers had planned an agenda for the day focusing on “The Changing World” and invited Courchene to give the keynote address, asking him to comment on “how an Indian looks at the future.” He was pleased by the opportunity to present his views, hoping that “through better communication we will create an atmosphere of better understanding.”1

Abstract

Albert Lightning paused briefly at the front of his tipi, then stepped out into the hazy half-light of dawn. His compact body passed easily through an opening that forced some to stoop; he was not a tall man, but many native people looked up to him as one who understood the meaning and power of tribal traditions. This morning the air was calm and fresh but very cool, a chilling embrace for even the most seasoned spiritual leader, and his joints momentarily ached for a warmer obligation. Surveying the camp through metal-frame eyeglasses, Lightning snugged the collar of his sweater and headed for an open area nearby. He was carrying an old pipe bag almost as weathered as the hand clutching it. Others soon joined the amiable Cree elder and quietly arranged themselves in a circle. He began by lighting a braid of sweetgrass, syrupy smoke curling skyward as it purified the gathering. Then he assembled a hand-carved pipe and packed its bowl with tobacco, speaking a few words in English about how these gifts should be used “on behalf of the people.” Running his thumb along the pipestem in an absentminded gesture, he explained the importance of faith and asked everyone there to pray for the past, present, and future of native communities. He removed his glasses; a few curious birds looked on from the treetops. Finally, and with a prayerful confidence, Lightning brought flame to the ceremonial herb.1

Abstract

Feelings of disappointment and frustration troubled Bob Thomas as he crossed the Canada-U.S. border on his way to Toronto. Driving gave him time to think. Approaching Lake Ontario, the Cherokee anthropologist reflected on his work, events of the summer now drawing to a close, and an upcoming meeting with a good friend.1

Abstract

People had come from far and near to attend the Indian Ecumenical Conference. A delegation of five Papagos drove to Stoney Indian Park from their homes in the Sonoran Desert of southern Arizona, and a busload of thirty—some representing communities above the Arctic Circle—made the long journey from the Northwest Territories. Others came from Nova Scotia’s Cape Breton Island and from the Florida Everglades. Many more lived on reserves within a few hours of Morley. The total number of delegates was better than double that of the Crow Agency gathering, and hundreds of casual participants further multiplied the increase in overall attendance; Stoney officials estimated they served eight hundred people at each meal on Wednesday. “A substantial number of Indian observers were young people from all over the United States and Canada,” the Conference report noted, “who came on their own initiative and resources.”1

Abstract

In September 1973 Bob Thomas finally had a chance to collect his thoughts on the movement. The Indian Ecumenical Conference was nearly four years old; organizers had convened the annual gathering four times, the last three at Stoney Indian Park. Thomas and his colleagues had found a way to get people talking across tribal and religious boundaries, but now their conversation was veering from its original course. The Cherokee traditionalist was dismayed by the proliferation of anti-Christian rhetoric—and by his realization that the Conference was in danger of going the way of the traditional movement. He was also tired of being caught in the middle of intertribal ceremonial tensions caused by the growing presence of urban youth and non-native spectators.1

Abstract

Old cars and pickup trucks had been pulling into the camping grounds at Beeman Logan’s place all day. Weary conveyances bearing battered license plates from the four directions—Washington, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, Ontario, and points beyond—were converging on the Tonawanda Seneca Reservation in western New York, every vehicle full of people eager to participate in this “Western Hemisphere meeting of Indians.” It was the middle of August 1969, and after months of planning and preparation the “Indian unity convention” was finally coming to life. Respected elders and spiritual leaders, medicine men and women, tribal youth and small children unloaded themselves and set up tents and tipis, anticipating the momentous proceedings about to begin.1

Abstract

Dissonant rhythms of folk guitar, acid rock, and the occasional burst of tribal drumming echoed through the halls and down the stairwells of Toronto’s newest high-rise. Paying residents and their guests intermingled with transient bodies in the commotion of the first-floor lobby, a kinetic response to the psychedelic murals covering the walls. University students, young couples with small children, middle-aged eccentrics, and a few elderly pensioners milled around the elevators, reading the latest graffiti and waiting for a vertical trip home. The doors finally opened with a rush of air, disgorging passengers and the smell of human habitation. Quickly filled to capacity, the car began its ascent back up the unlit shaft, bearing its colorful load and more than a hint of exotic homegrown and other combustible herbs.1
