    Abstract Abstract G-Cubed is a multi-country, multi-sector, intertemporal general equilibrium model that has been used to study a variety of policies in the areas of environmental regulation, tax reform, monetary and fiscal policy, and international trade. It is designed to bridge the gaps between three areas of research – econometric general equilibrium modeling, international trade theory, and modern macroeconomics – by incorporating the best features of each. This chapter describes the theoretical and empirical structure of the model, summarizes its applications and contributions to the literature, and discusses two example applications in detail.

    Abstract Rare exonic, non-truncating variants in known cancer susceptibility genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2 are problematic for genetic counseling and clinical management of relevant families. This study used multifactorial likelihood analysis and/or bioinformatically-directed mRNA assays to assess pathogenicity of 19 BRCA1 or BRCA2 variants identified following patient referral to clinical genetic services. Two variants were considered to be pathogenic (Class 5). BRCA1:c.4484G> C(p.Arg1495Thr) was shown to result in aberrant mRNA transcripts predicted to encode truncated proteins. The BRCA1:c.122A>G(p.His41Arg) RING-domain variant was found from multifactorial likelihood analysis to have a posterior probability of pathogenicity of 0.995, a result consistent with existing protein functional assay data indicating lost BARD1 binding and ubiquitin ligase activity. Of the remaining variants, seven were determined to be not clinically significant (Class 1), nine were likely not pathogenic (Class 2), and one was uncertain (Class 3).These results have implications for genetic counseling and medical management of families carrying these specific variants. They also provide additional multifactorial likelihood variant classifications as reference to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of bioinformatic prediction tools and/or functional assay data in future studies.

    Abstract Background: Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. To date no single clinical, laboratory or imaging test has proven accurate for NPSLE diagnosis which is a testament to the intricate and multifactorial pathophysiological mechanisms suspected to exist. Functional imaging with FDG PET-CT has shown promise in NPSLE diagnosis, detecting abnormalities prior to changes evident on anatomical imaging. Research indicates that NPSLE may be more aggressive in people of African descent with higher mortality rates, making rapid and correct diagnosis even more important in the African context.
    Methods: In this narrative review, we provide a thorough appraisal of the current literature on the role of FDG PET-CT in NPSLE. Large, well-known databases were searched using appropriate search terms. Manual searches of references of retrieved literature were also included.
    Findings: A total of 73 article abstracts were assessed, yielding 26 papers that were directly relevant to the topic of FDG PET-CT in NPSLE. Results suggest that FDG PET-CT is a sensitive imaging test for NPSLE diagnosis and may play a role in assessing treatment response. It is complementary to routine anatomical imaging, particularly in diffuse manifestations of the disease. Newer quantitative analyses are commonly used for interpretation and can detect even subtle abnormalities, missed on visual inspection. Findings of group-wise analyses of FDG PET-CT scans in NPSLE patients are important in furthering our understanding of the complicated pathophysiological mechanisms involved. Limitations of FDG PET-CT include its lack of specificity, high cost and poor access.
    Conclusion: FDG PET-CT is a sensitive test for NPSLE diagnosis but is hampered by lack of specificity. It is a valuable tool for clinicians managing SLE patients, particularly when anatomical imaging is negative. Its exact application will depend on the local context and clinical scenario.
