Advances in molecular genetics during the past decades led to seminal discoveries in the genetic basis of cardiovascular diseases, resulting in a new understanding of their pathogenesis, determinants of natural history and more recently paved the way for innovative therapies. A significant gap, however, exists between the rapidly increasing knowledge, especially of cardiovascular Mendelian disorders, and the medical applications in daily practice. This paper will focus on the practical issues the cardiologist may be faced with when suspecting a Mendelian disorder.

In 2002, in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, a comprehensive strategic plan was developed with the aim of improving the integration and efficiency of the genetic services. Two decades later, this report aims to explore the current functioning of the regional network, with special focus on clinical genetics in the evolving scenarios. To this aim, we analyzed the activity data of the medical genetics services in the region, to identify and possibly improve currently open issues.

Determining karyotype-phenotype correlations for individuals with Turner syndrome ("TS individuals") is a longstanding research endeavor. The limited literature on Turner syndrome (TS) with a ring X chromosome hinders counseling about the neuropsychological and clinical features. To further characterize these phenotypes, we compared 27 TS individuals with 46,X,r(X)/45,X ("ring X") to 50 non-mosaic 45,X, and 27 mosaic 45,X/46,XX ("mosaic 45,X") individuals.
