In November 2014, the Rhode Island Department of Health investigated a cluster of 3 listeriosis cases. Using whole-genome sequencing to support epidemiologic, laboratory, and environmental investigations, the department identified 1 restaurant as the likely source of the outbreak and also linked the establishment to a listeriosis case that occurred in 2013.

SARS-CoV-2 continues to transmit and evolve in humans and animals. White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) have been previously identified as a zoonotic reservoir for SARS-CoV-2 with high rates of infection and probable spillback into humans. Here we report sampling 1,127 white-tailed deer (WTD) in Pennsylvania, and a genomic analysis of viral dynamics spanning 1,017 days between April 2021 and January 2024.

Background: Trinucleotide repeat expansions are an emerging class of genetic variants associated with various movement disorders. Unbiased genome-wide analyses can reveal novel genotype-phenotype associations and provide a diagnosis for patients and families.
Objective: The aim was to identify the genetic cause of a severe progressive movement disorder phenotype in 2 affected brothers.

Background: The use of exome sequencing (ES) has helped in detecting many variants and genes that cause primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI). The diagnosis of PAI is difficult and can be life-threatening if not treated urgently. Consanguinity can impact the detection of recessively inherited genes.

Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS) is a rare inherited condition described worldwide and characterized by a wide spectrum of heterogeneity in terms of genotype and phenotype. How sacsin loss leads to neurodegeneration is still unclear, and current knowledge indicates that sacsin is involved in multiple functional mechanisms. We hence hypothesized the existence of epigenetic factors, in particular alterations in methylation patterns, that could contribute to ARSACS pathogenesis and explain the pleiotropic effects of SACS further than pathogenic mutations.
