Fumarate hydratase tumor predisposition syndrome (FHTPS) is caused by germline fumarate hydratase (FH) pathogenic variants (PVs). Most women with FHTPS develop FH-deficient (FHD) uterine leiomyomas (ULs), which arise 10 to 15 years earlier than aggressive FHD-renal cell carcinoma. We evaluate a previously proposed FHTPS screening strategy for women with ULs.

Introduction: This qualitative research study aimed to better understand and help improve the Canadian context for health communication with intersex adults by centering the voices of those directly involved and impacted.
Methods: We conducted 22 semi-structured interviews with intersex individuals (14) and healthcare practitioners (HCPs, 8) from diverse areas of care. Interviews were analyzed via template thematic analysis and filtered through a conceptual lens that brought together agency-based and social-ecological models of health communication.

Dias-Logan syndrome, also known as intellectual developmental disorder with persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HbF), or -related intellectual developmental disorder, is an extremely rare neurogenetic disorder characterized by intellectual disability (ID), delayed psychomotor development, variable dysmorphic features, and asymptomatic persistence of fetal hemoglobin. The prevalence and incidence of this condition are currently unknown. We report an 8-year-old Han Chinese male patient with Dias-Logan syndrome who carries a heterozygous pathogenic variant, c.

Background: Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a congenital disorder characterized by multiple joint involvement, primarily affecting limb mobility and leading to various tissue contractures. Variations in the RIPK4 gene may impact connective tissues, thereby resulting in a spectrum of malformations. This study aimed to identify the genetic etiologies of AMC patients and provide genetic testing information for further diagnosis and treatment of AMC.
