Low voltage-activated T-type calcium (Ca) channels contribute to the normal development of heart and are also implicated in pathophysiological states such as cardiac hypertrophy. Functionally distinct Ca channel isoforms can be generated by alternative splicing from each three different genes (Ca(V)3.1, Ca(V)3.2,Ca(V)3.3), although it remains described whether specific splice variants associated with developmental pathological conditions. We aimed identify functionally characterize Ca(V)3.2...

Using a sample of pediatric chest radiographs (pCXR) taken to rule out pneumonia, we obtained diagnostic interpretations from physicians and used learning analytics determine the radiographic variables participant review processes that predicted for an incorrect interpretation.

There is limited knowledge on pediatric chest radiograph (pCXR) interpretation skill among practicing physicians. We systematically determined baseline skill, the number of pCXR cases physicians required complete to achieve a performance benchmark, and which diagnoses posed greatest diagnostic challenge.
