Objectives: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder. Prior research suggests that genetic susceptibility and environmental exposures, such as maternal preeclampsia (PE) during pregnancy, play key roles in ASD pathogenesis. However, the specific effects of the interaction between genetic and environmental factors on ASD phenotype severity remain unclear.

Background: In people with Parkinson’s disease (PD), mutations in GBA and LRRK2 are associated with different clinical phenotypes which might be related to differential involvement of the cholinergic system. We aimed to investigate cholinergic basal forebrain (cBF) volume in asymptomatic and symptomatic mutation carriers in comparison to idiopathic PD and healthy controls and associations with cognitive decline.
Method: This study included 149 asymptomatic GBA and 169 asymptomatic LRRK2 mutation carriers, 112 LRRK2 carriers and 60 GBA carriers with PD, 492 idiopathic PD, and 180 healthy controls from the Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI).
Background: Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Aims: This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near-to-normal N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels with regard to early stages of HFpEF and non-cardiac causes.

Objective: To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of two children diagnosed with two rare genetic diseases simultaneously.
Methods: Two children with comorbidity of two genetic diseases due to dual genetic mutations diagnosed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University respectively in May 2022 and March 2023 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical and genetic data of the two children were retrospectively analyzed.

Objectives: Objective of this work was to examine myomiR levels in plasma, skeletal muscle, and skeletal muscle cells of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM), their interrelations with the disease-related clinical phenotypes and with the effects of the disease-modifying 6-month training-intervention.
Methods: Samples of vastus lateralis muscle (n = 12/13) and plasma (n = 20/21) were obtained from IIM patients and healthy controls, respectively. Muscle and plasma were obtained before and after a 6-month training-intervention in 7 patients.
