Photograph of St. Catharines Collegiate Institute students, October 20, 1925

The origins of the St. Catharines Collegiate Institute can be traced back to the formation of the Grantham Academy on Church St. in 1829. In 1845, the name was changed to the St. Catharines District Grammar School and in 1890 the Grammar School was renamed the St. Catharines Collegiate Institute. The current site of the school on Catherine Street was built in 1923 to accommodate the increasing demand for technical education, and became known as the St. Catharines Collegiate Institute and Vocational School. The school was enlarged with additions in 1945, 1965 and 1969. In 2006, the school underwent major renovations, which were completed in 2008. It is currently a secondary school administered by the District School Board of Niagara.

Genetic association study of plasma creatine kinase levels in the Montreal Heart Institute Hospital Cohort

Il a déjà été démontré que les statines (ou inhibiteurs de la HMG-CoA réductase) sont efficaces pour réduire le LDL-cholestérol et elles se sont depuis établies comme étant le pilier dans le traitement de la dyslipidémie. Toutefois, environ 10 pourcent des utilisateurs de statines souffrent d'effets indésirables, généralement sous forme de myopathie qui est souvent accompagnée d’un taux élevé de la créatine kinase (CK) plasmatique. Il est fréquent que les patients doivent arrêter les statines à cause d’un taux de CK dépassant un seuil de référence. Nous avons examiné le taux de CK de près de 6000 participants de la biobanque de l’ICM, qui ont récemment été génotypés à l'aide de la micropuce d'ADN ExomChip d'Illumina. Des études antérieures ont démontré une association significative entre le taux de CK plasmatique et des polymorphismes génétiques et nous avons cherché à répliquer ces résultats par association génétique et à l'aide du test SKAT pour les polymorphismes rares. Nous avons répliqué les résultats dans le gène CKM (rs11559024, p=1.59x10-23) et le gène LILRB5 (rs12975366, p=1.44x10-26) dans le chromosome 19. Nous espérons que ces résultats seront éventuellement utilisés en clinique pour la prédiction des taux de référence de CK personnalisés selon le profil génétique des patients utilisateurs de statines.
