Article Synopsis
  • - Traditional newborn screening (NBS) helps identify health issues in infants early on, while newborn sequencing (NBSeq) offers a deeper analysis of genetics that could enhance long-term health management and personalized medicine.
  • - Despite its potential, NBSeq faces challenges like ethical concerns, complex genomic data interpretation, and the need for specialized skills and infrastructure, which can hinder its widespread use.
  • - To overcome these barriers, collaboration among various stakeholders and the establishment of frameworks for informed consent and data protection are crucial for making NBSeq a standard practice, particularly in underserved communities.

While basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer in humans, its subepidermal presentation is extremely rare. The risk factors for basal cell carcinoma development are well-known, but it remains unclear in which setting the tumor restricts itself to the dermal compartment. We present the fifth known case of subepidermal basal cell carcinoma.

The present study asked whether the ability to mentally rotate animal pictures was associated with orientation errors of aiming movements in 7- to 10-year-old children and adults. Mental rotation involves a mental change of the encoded picture's orientation, and one has to determine movement vector orientation in motor programming. In the children, slower rotations were related to higher absolute orientation errors, and less correct responses with movements rightward of the target.
