To evaluate the two-year fundus examination outcomes of term infants undergoing eye screening. Retrospective review of our data of term infants at a tertiary care center (Ankara Bilkent City Hospital) from October 2021 to October 2023. All screened infants underwent red reflex test and dilated posterior segment examination.

Diabetes is an incurable, chronic disease that can lead to many complications, including angiopathy, peripheral neuropathy, and erectile dysfunction (ED). The angiopoietin-Tie2 signaling pathway plays a critical role in blood vessel development, formation, remodeling, and peripheral nerve regeneration. Therefore, strategies for activating the Tie2 signaling pathway have been developed as potential therapies for neurovascular diseases.

The X-linked NONO gene encodes Non-Pou Domain-Containing Octamer-Binding Protein, a multifunctional member of the DBHS family involved in transcriptional regulation, RNA splicing and DNA repair. Pathogenic variants in NONO cause Intellectual Developmental Disorder, X-linked Syndromic (MIM #300967), characterised by intellectual disability, neurodevelopmental delay, cardiomyopathy, such as left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC), and congenital heart defects such as including atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and patent foramen ovale (PFO). This study reports three new patients with pathogenic hemizygous frameshift variants in NONO identified with exome sequencing, broadening the clinical presentation.

Background: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) genetic studies neglect the majority occurring in older decedents with cardiovascular pathology.
Objectives: This study sought to determine the burden of genetic disease in unselected adult sudden deaths by precision genotype-postmortem phenotype correlation.
Methods: The authors used autopsy, histology, and toxicology to adjudicate cause and identify high-suspicion phenotypes (eg, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) among presumed SCDs aged 18 to 90 years referred to the county medical examiner from February 2011 to January 2018.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) displays a notable male bias in prevalence. Research into rare (<0.1) genetic variants on the X chromosome has implicated over 20 genes in ASD pathogenesis, such as MECP2, DDX3X, and DMD.
