A Case of IDH‐Mutant Astrocytoma Harboring an IDH2 R172_H173delinsSN Variant
ABSTRACT IDH‐mutant gliomas most commonly harbor the canonical IDH1 p.R132H mutation, followed by less common mutations involving IDH1 p.R132 or IDH2 p.R172 codons. We present a case of a 32‐year‐old male found to have a left temporal brain tumor with regional enhancement on brain MRI, for which he underwent resection.

Human candidate gene polymorphisms and risk of severe malaria in children in Kilifi, Kenya: a case-control association study [PDF]
Background: Human genetic factors are important determinants of malaria risk. We investigated associations between multiple candidate polymorphisms—many related to the structure or function of red blood cells—and risk for severe Plasmodium falciparum ...

Is Hemoglobin Variant Analysis Helpful in the Diagnostic Work-up of Patients Revealing Microcytic Erythrocytosis on Complete Blood Count? [PDF]
Introduction: Microcytic erythrocytosis is an abnormal CBC (complete blood count) finding that is under-recognized, poorly understood, and consequently under-utilized in patient care. It is characterized by decreased MCV and increased RBC count.

Hb SKMC and an unprecedented γδβ-thalassemia: first report from Iraq
Background Thalassemias are genetic disorders of globin chain synthesis. In Iraq, β-thalassemia is more prevalent than α-thalassemia. This study identifies two unpredicted globin gene mutations, a rare α-globin gene mutation (Hb SKMC) and a novel γδβ ...
