• Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome: A Longitudinal Clinical Study of Patients Receiving Cholesterol Supplementation

  Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a disorder of cholesterol production by the body. It is caused by changes in the DHCR7 gene, which is the blueprint for an enzyme called 7-dehydrocholesterol- delta7-reductase. This enzyme is necessary for the production of cholesterol by all cells in the body. People with SLOS often have malformations of major organs, slow growth, feeding difficulties and intellectual disability or learning problems. Because patients with SLOS cannot make enough cholesterol, it has been proposed that cholesterol supplementation (either with egg yolk or liquid suspensions of cholesterol) could help improve the symptoms of the disease. However, despite the widespread use of cholesterol supplementation, it is still not known whether it works or not. The study will try to provide an answer to this question by studying the disease and its progression while patients are receiving cholesterol. The clinical features of SLOS are thought to be related to low cholesterol and buildup of toxic cholesterol precursors (substances from which cholesterol is formed). But how exactly low cholesterol and toxic precursors contribute to the disease is poorly understood. This knowledge is critically important because it should help discover new therapeutic targets and develop treatments of the disease in the long run. The study will try to fill this gap with a comprehensive clinical and biochemical testing of the study participants over the course of several years. Last, a limitation of previous SLOS research studies has been their low number of participants. This is understandable because SLOS is a rare diseases and few research groups are working on it. However, in order to fully understand the disease, researchers need to study as many patients as possible. This study is unique in that it is run by a network of several highly specialized clinical research sites across the country. Having several sites involved increases the researcher's ability to recruit and study large number of patients, and centralize patients' information in a comprehensive SLOS clinical registry. This registry will be key to identify markers for diagnostic testing, screening and measuring outcomes in future studies of treatment. The purpose of this study is to learn as much as possible about Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) by following a large group of affected children and adults over time. In this study, we will measure cholesterol and other similar chemicals in blood and urine, evaluate development and behavior, do limited medical evaluation, and carry out brain imaging studies.This study will help researchers: learn more about what causes SLOS and how SLOS changes with age, note differences in features of SLOS among those affected, evaluate the effect of giving extra cholesterol in this condition, and develop ways to evaluate whether treatments developed in the future will be helpful.

• The Human Virome in Children and its Relationship to Febrile Illness

  Definition of the human microbiome is an important scientific priority. This study will expand the scope of the investigation to include viruses, which account for a substantial proportion of infectious disease morbidity and mortality, especially in children. The long-term goal of this project is to describe the human virome in children and to investigate its relevance to febrile illnesses in children. The project will also seek to understand the relationship of the immune system to the composition of the virome. Thus, the project's specific aims are 1) To elucidate the spectrum of viruses that can be detected using non-biased, high throughput sequencing on samples of blood, respiratory, and gastrointestinal secretions from healthy children and to use this information as a basis for understanding the role of viruses in acute febrile illnesses without an obvious source, and 2) to investigate the effect of various forms of immunosuppression on the spectrum of viruses detected in children, and to use this information as a basis for understanding the role of viruses in acute febrile illnesses occurring in these children. Our preliminary studies show that diverse viruses can be detected in children having undiagnosed fever. To carry out the specific aims, well children will be enrolled prior to having elective surgery, and febrile otherwise well children will be enrolled from the Emergency Department at St. Louis Children's Hospital. Immunocompromised children will be recruited from hematopoietic stem cell and solid organ transplant clinics, the HIV/AIDS clinic, and the rheumatology/immunology clinic from the same hospital. Children with fever will have samples obtained at the time of the febrile illness and at 1 and 6-month follow-up visits. Selected samples from each study group will be analyzed at the Genome Center at Washington University (GCWU) using next generation 454 high throughput sequencing to detect and sequence all viral sequences present. We anticipate detecting and sequencing a broad range of viruses, including previously unrecognized agents. A variety of techniques will be used to investigate the significance of viruses detected. Virus-specific PCR assays will be used to determine the frequency and extent of viruses detected by sequencing, using the full range of samples collected. Host response to the detected viruses will be investigated using serologic analysis, cytokine profiling, and microarrays to characterize host gene expression. These studies will take advantage of follow-up samples to compare the acute response with the response in the convalescent period. This study will draw upon the expertise and technological assets of one of the world's most powerful sequencing centers to provide the research community with a comprehensive sequence data base of the viruses that are present in children, which can be used to improve our understanding of the causes of febrile illnesses in young children, many of which are currently undiagnosed.

• Coagulation and Fibrinolysis in a Pediatric Insulin Titration Trial

  Summary of the Design and Aims: The Coagulation and Fibrinolysis in a Pediatric Insulin Titration Trial (CAF-PINT) is an ancillary study to the HALF PINT (NCT01565941) randomized, controlled trial that was originally designed to study changes in inflammatory and thrombosis pathways in the setting of an interventional trial. The parent HALF PINT study was designed to study the impact of tight glycemic control (TGC) using an explicit insulin titration algorithm to safely achieve a normal glucose in target range of 80-110 mg/dL versus 150-180mg/dL on clinical outcomes among critically ill hyperglycemic children with Heart and Lung Failure. The CAF PINT study collected blood samples pre randomization and at 2 and 4 days after randomization. Blood samples collected in EDTA tubes were centrifuged at local sites to separate the plasma from cell pellets and frozen prior to shipment. In addition, 0.5 mL of whole blood collected in PAXgene tubes modified for use in pediatrics frozen 24 hours after collection prior to shipment.Population Information: Setting: Twenty-one academic children's hospitals (HALF-PINT) and 1 academic children's hospital (IIT-SBPP). Participants: Critically ill hyperglycemic children requiring mechanical ventilation/vasoactive support (n=293).Interventions and Exposures: Patients in HALF PINT were randomized to achieve a low target glucose (80-110 mg/dL) vs. a higher target (150-180 mg/dL). The primary trial was stopped early due to low likelihood of achieving a statistically significant difference in the primary outcomes. Molecular Technologies Employed: Plasma biomarkers were assayed on thawed plasma using a Luminex panel. RNA was extracted from PAXgene Blood RNA Kits modified for pediatric use. Extracted RNA was sequenced with the Novaseq S4 system (Illumina) to generate 2 x 150 base paired end reads to a target depth of 50 million read-pairs per sample.Principal Findings of the Study: We tested for heterogeneity of treatment effects according to baseline blood inflammatory proteins using logistic regression with individual biomarkers as interaction terms and Cox regression analysis using biomarker-derived latent classes. Children with higher inflammatory proteins including TNFR-1, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10 had lower mortality when treated with insulin to a target glucose of 80-110 mg/dL as compared to 150-180 mg/dL (interaction p<0.05). Causal forest estimates ranged from a 40% mortality reduction to a 15% mortality increase with TGC, depending on each patient’s individual biomarker profile. Latent class categorization strongly interacted with TGC with respect to mortality (Cox regression interaction p=0.005). Specifically, patients with higher inflammation benefited from TGC (6% mortality with TGC vs. 48% mortality, p=0.004) whereas hypoinflamed patients showed a trend towards harm (14% mortality with TGC vs. 7% mortality, p=0.055).Data available through dbGaP: Transcriptomic (Gene Counts) and phenotype data

• Acute Respiratory Distress Network (ARDSNet) Study 04 Assessment of Low Tidal Volume and Elevated End-Expiratory Volume to Obviate Lung Injury (ALVEOLI-BioLINCC)

  Data Access NOTE: Please refer to the "Authorized Access" section below for information about how access to the data from this accession differs from many other dbGaP accessions. BiospecimensAccess to Biospecimens is through the NHLBI Biologic Specimen and Data Repository Information Coordinating Center (BioLINCC). Biospecimens from ARDSNet-ALVEOLI include Plasma and DNA. Please note that use of biospecimens in genetic research is subject to a tiered consent. Available Data Outcome data regarding organ failure free days are not available. Objectives The ARDS Network is a consortium of clinical centers and a coordinating center to design and test novel therapies for the treatment of Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The ARDS Network 01/03 trials included an investigation of the efficacy and safety of Ketoconazole and Respiratory Management in the treatment of ALI and ARDS (KARMA). The Ketoconazole arm of the KARMA study was later stopped due to an inability to show efficacy. Participants continued to be randomized to the respiratory management arms of the study (ARMA), which compared two ventilator strategies: a tidal volume of 6 mL/kg versus 12 mL/kg. The LARMA phase of the study investigated the efficacy of Lisofylline and Respiratory Management. The objective of the ALVEOLI study was to compare clinical outcomes of participants with ALI and ARDS treated with a higher end-expiratory lung volume/lower FiO2 versus a lower end-expiratory lung volume/higher FiO2 ventilation strategy. The ALVEOLI study tested the hypothesis that mortality from ALI and ARDS would be reduced with a mechanical ventilation strategy designed to prevent lung injury from repeated collapse of bronchioles and alveoli at end-expiration. Background Most participants requiring mechanical ventilation for ALI and ARDS receive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 to 12 cm of water. Higher PEEP levels may improve oxygenation and reduce ventilator-induced lung injury but may also cause circulatory depression and lung injury from overdistention. PEEP levels higher than traditional levels may reduce ventilator-induced lung injury by decreasing the proportion of nonaerated lung and higher PEEP levels may allow arterial-oxygenation goals to be met at a lower level of inspired oxygen (FiO2). Participants A total of 550 participants were randomized to receive mechanical ventilation with either lower or higher PEEP levels, which were set according to different tables of predetermined combinations of PEEP and fraction of inspired oxygen. Conclusions Participants with acute lung injury and ARDS who receive mechanical ventilation with a tidal-volume goal of 6 ml per kilogram of predicted body weight and an end-inspiratory plateau-pressure limit of 30 cm of water, clinical outcomes were statistically similar whether lower or higher PEEP levels are used.

• Combined Tumor and Immune Signals From Genomes or Transcriptomes Predict Outcomes of Checkpoint Inhibition in Melanoma

  Cancer immunotherapy with checkpoint blockade (CPB) leads to improved outcomes in melanoma and other tumor types, but a majority of patients do not respond. High tumor mutation burden (TMB) and high levels of tumor-infiltrating T cells have been associated with response to immunotherapy, and integrative models using DNA and RNA have improved predictions of clinical benefit. However, identification of immune and tumor-intrinsic features in models using DNA or RNA alone have not been comprehensively explored in melanoma. In this study, we sequenced DNA and RNA of tumors from 67 melanoma patients receiving CPB, and aggregated this cohort with previously published data, yielding whole exome sequencing (WES) data for 189 patients and bulk RNA sequencing data for 178 patients. Using these datasets, we derived genomic and transcriptomic factors that predict overall survival (OS) and response to immunotherapy. Using whole exome DNA data alone, we calculated T cell burden (TCB) and B cell burden (BCB) based on rearranged TCR/Ig DNA sequences, and found that melanoma patients with high TMB and either high TCB or high BCB survived longer and had higher response rates, as compared to patients with low TMB and either low TCB or low BCB. Next, using bulk RNA-Seq data, differential expression analysis identified 83 genes which are associated with high or low OS. By combining pairs of immune-expressed genes with tumor-expressed genes, we identified three gene pairs which are associated with response and survival (Bonferroni P<0.05). All three gene pair models were validated in an independent cohort (n=180) (Bonferroni P<0.05). The best performing gene pair model included the lymphocyte-expressed MAP4K1 (Gene ID: 11184) and the transcription factor TBX3 (Gene ID: 6926) which is overexpressed in poorly differentiated melanomas. We concluded that RNA-based (MAP4K1 and TBX3) or DNA-based (TCB and TMB) models combining with immune and tumor measures improve predictions of outcome after checkpoint blockade in melanoma.

• Genetic Analysis of the Chiari I Malformation

  This study used whole exome sequencing (WES) on families affected with Chiari I Malformation (CM1). Individuals were recruited from the Republic of Tartarstan in the Russian Federation, where CM1 has a high prevalence (approximately 413 out of 100,000). At least one-third of these affected individuals have an affected relative. In collaboration with Dr. Enver Bogdanov of Kazan State Medical University, seven extended families affected with CM1 were identified. Eligible participants for this study were required to 1) have CM1 and a family member with syringomyelia or CM1, or 2) be a family member of a patient with CM1 and have at least two immediate family members diagnosed with CM1. Adults and minors were eligible for this study and recruitment was through self and physician referral. Patients were excluded if they had a contraindication to MRI scanning, were unable to understand the risks of testing, were under one year of age, or could not undergo MRI scanning without sedation. Study participants underwent SPGR (Spoiled Gradient Recalled) and T1-weighted MR-imaging of the brain and cervical spinal cord to assess the volume of the posterior fossa, as well as the presence of CM1. Individuals were defined as having CM1 if the inferior aspect of the cerebellar tonsils were lying ≥=2 mm caudal to the foramen magnum. Individuals were defined as having a small posterior fossa volume if the ratio of the posterior fossa volume to the supratentorial volume was < 0.15. Sixty-two patients (both cases and controls) from the seven extended families had DNA extracted from blood lymphocytes contained in 10 milliliters of stored blood. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed by the National Intramural Sequencing Center (NISC). These genotype data, as well as the case-control phenotype data on CM1 diagnosis and small posterior fossa diagnosis, were made available to dbGaP.
