Background: Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is the most common inherited neuropathy. In this study, we aimed to analyze the genetic spectrum and describe phenotypic features in a large cohort from Türkiye.
Methods: Demographic and clinical findings were recorded.

Background And Aims: Homozygous loss-of-function mutations in the RETREG1 gene result in Hereditary Sensory Autonomic Neuropathy Type 2B. Clinical features include pain loss, autonomic disturbances, and upper motor neuron features.
Methods: We evaluated the clinical and genetic features of seven patients from four families with RETREG1 variants.
Introduction: Genetic forms of growth hormone deficiency (GHD) may occur as isolated GHD (IGHD) or as a component of multiple pituitary hormone deficiency (MPHD). This study aimed to present the clinical and molecular characteristics of patients with IGHD/MPHD due to the GH1 gene variants.
Methods: A gene panel accommodating 25 genes associated with MPHD and short stature was used to search for small sequence variants.
