Background: Lynch syndrome (LS), an autosomal dominant disorder resulting from germline pathogenic variants in DNA mismatch repair genes, poses an elevated risk of developing different types of cancer, particularly colorectal and endometrial. Early identification of LS individuals is vital for implementing preventive measures. This study aims to assess the adherence rate of LS individuals to colorectal surveillance and identify influencing factors.

Background: Prenatal whole exome sequencing (WES) is becoming an increasingly used diagnostic tool for fetuses with structural anomalies. However, the identification of variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in clinically relevant genes can significantly complicate prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling.
Case Presentation: A fetus conceived through in vitro fertilization at the third attempt presented with polydactyly and molar tooth sign at 24 + 6 weeks of gestation.

Background: The correlation between asthma and frailty is increasingly garnering attention. The association between asthma and frailty remains inconclusive in observational studies, and the causality of this relationship still needs to be established.
Aims: Therefore, we employed two-sample Mendelian randomization analyses using genetic instruments to determine the causal association of asthma on frailty.

Unlabelled: The RASopathies are a group of disorders resulting from a germline variant in the genes encoding the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. These disorders include Noonan syndrome (NS), cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC), Costello syndrome (CS), Legius syndrome (LS), and neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), and have overlapping clinical features due to RAS/MAPK dysfunction. In this study, we aimed to describe the clinical and molecular features of patients exhibiting phenotypic manifestations consistent with RASopathies.
