Purpose: To enhance the detection rate of Neonatal Intrahepatic Cholestasis caused by Citrin Deficiency (NICCD) through newborn screening (NBS), we analyzed the metabolic profiles of missed patients and proposed a more reliable method for early diagnosis.
Methods: In this retrospective study, NICCD patients were classified into "Newborn Screening" (64 individuals) and "Missed Screening" (52 individuals) groups. Metabolic profiles were analyzed using the non-derivatized MS/MS Kit, and genetic mutations were identified via next-generation sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing.

Castleman disease (CD) is a rare hematologic disorder characterized by pathologic lymph node changes and a range of symptoms due to excessive cytokine production. While uncontrolled infection with human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) is responsible for the cytokine storm in a portion of multicentric CD (HHV-8-associated MCD) cases, the etiology of unicentric CD (UCD) and HHV-8-negative/idiopathic MCD (iMCD) is unknown. Several hypotheses have been proposed regarding the pathogenesis of UCD and iMCD, including occult infection given the precedent established by HHV-8 infection.

Aims: Calcified chondroid mesenchymal neoplasm (CCMN) is a recently identified category of soft tissue neoplasms defined by cartilage or cartilaginous matrix formation and gene fusions. Its rarity and similarities to other soft tissue tumours pose diagnostic challenges. This study aims to deepen understanding of CCMN, highlighting molecular pathology's role in diagnosis to reduce misdiagnosis, overdiagnosis and overtreatment.

Aim: This study aims to investigate the association of the genetic variations in IGF2BP2 and CAPN10 as well as gene-environment interactions with the risk of gestational diabetes (GDM) in Chinese women.
Materials And Methods: A total of 1,566 pregnant Chinese women participated in this case-control study. We employed targeted next-generation sequencing to analyze specific SNPs in IGF2BP2 (rs11927381, rs1470579, rs4402960, rs7640539) and CAPN10/rs2975760.

Schizophrenia is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder featuring enhanced brain oxidative stress and deficient reelin protein. GFAP.HMOX1 mice that overexpress heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in astrocytes manifest a schizophrenia-like neurochemical, neuropathological and behavioral phenotype including brain oxidative stress and reelin downregulation.
