Building on a study to develop core outcome sets for children with rare inherited metabolic diseases, the purpose of this workshop was to inform the design of longitudinal pediatric registries that support registry-based clinical trials. This workshop was co-designed by two patient/family partner investigators and attended by two family advisors who received preparatory training. Patient partners and advisors recommended integrating the collection of registry data into everyday life and highlighted the importance of transparent communication and attention to the issue of integration of patient-reported data into clinical care. We propose a need to explore strategies for engaging patients in post-project knowledge translation.

Epigenetics is the link between the genome and environment, which can respond to physiological (such as age) or environmental factors (such as diet, stress, and pollution) and induce changes in epigenetic modifications (such as DNA methylation, non-coding RNA, and histone modifications). It can also serve as cellular memory transmitted from generation to generation. Sperm is highly responsive to such environmental changes and has unique epigenetic profiles.

Objective: To explore the results of four types of Urea cycle disorders (UCDs) in newborns from the Xuzhou region, assess the efficacy of newborn screening by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), and analyze their genetic characteristics.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed using tandem mass spectrometry to screen for inherited metabolic disorders in 691 712 newborns at the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Xuzhou from November 2015 to December 2023. Ten children (cases 1-10) were diagnosed with Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD), Carbamoylphosphate synthase 1 deficiency (CPS1D), Arginase deficiency (ARGD), and Argininosuccinate synthase deficiency (ASSD) based on MS/MS and genetic testing.

Introduction: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most prevalent cancers in kidney transplant recipients (KTR). The hereditary background of RCC in native kidneys has been determined, implicating its clinical importance.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective single-center pilot study aimed to identify a potential genetic predisposition to RCC of the transplanted kidney and outcome in KTR who underwent single kidney transplantation between January 2000 and December 2020 and manifested RCC of the transplanted kidney.
