Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the CTBP2 gene and its relation to anorexia nervosa (AN) and body mass index (BMI) through mutation analysis, revealing 24 variants in the RIBEYE exon among various groups including patients with AN, obese children, and healthy individuals.
- Three rare non-synonymous variants were found in AN patients, while several variants were unique to children with severe obesity, indicating potential genetic links to these conditions.
- Functional studies showed that RIBEYE mRNA is expressed in the mouse hypothalamus and is influenced by leptin treatment, suggesting that the RIBEYE gene may play a role in body weight regulation.
Background: The treatment of endometriosis and adenomyosis requires a complex, multidisciplinary approach. Some centres have established multidisciplinary teams (MDT) and regular meetings. There are currently no international data or recommendations.

The Wildlife Malaria Network (WIMANET) is a groundbreaking multinational collaboration focused on studying vector-borne haemosporidian parasites in wildlife. Unlike human malaria, wildlife malaria is found on all continents except Antarctica, with parasites being transmitted by a range of vectors. The complexity and diversity of these parasites makes it necessary to have an interdisciplinary approach to understand and mitigate their impacts.
